Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine efficacy and safety of combination therapy with adjusted-dose docetaxel-oxaliplatin-capecitabine in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma and intermediate general status.(defined as ECOG 2 or weight loss 10-25% or older that 70 years and no comorbidities nor functional dependency nor geriatric syndrome)
Study Phase: 1b/2 Indication: Previously untreated subjects with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic gastric or esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma. Primary Objective(s): Part 1: To identify safe dose levels of AMG 102, up to 15 mg/kg Q3W, to combine with ECX. Part 2 (phase 2-double-blind): To estimate with pre-specified precision the effect of the addition of AMG 102 to ECX on progression free survival (PFS).
To estimate the difference in efficacy and safety of bevacizumab and RAD001 compared to bevacizumab and interferon alfa-2a for first-line treatment of patients with metastatic carcinoma of the kidney.
The purpose of this study is to test if cetuximab (Erbitux) can shrink lung cancers that initially became smaller after taking erlotinib and then started to get bigger despite continuing treatment. Cetuximab is a medicine approved by the U.S. Food and Drug administration for treatment of head and neck and colon cancer. The goal of the phase I portion of this trial is to find out the highest dose of cetuximab that can be taken together with erlotinib. This study will also give an idea of how well cetuximab shrinks lung cancer when given with erlotinib. The purpose of this study is to test if cetuximab (Erbitux) can shrink lung cancers that initially became smaller after taking erlotinib or gefitinib and then started to get bigger despite continuing treatment. Cetuximab is a medicine approved by the U.S. Food and Drug administration for treatment of head and neck and colon cancer. The goal of this phase is to determine if cetuximab given with erlotinib causes lung cancers to shrink in size.
To determine the effect of ABT-869 plus mFOLFOX6 compared to bevacizumab plus mFOLFOX6 on disease progression in advanced colorectal cancer.
The study is a prospective phase I trial of radiation therapy concurrent with capecitabine and oxaliplatin chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced pancreas adenocarcinoma. Eligibility criteria include pathologically confirmed, non-metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas that is surgically unresectable. Patients will undergo radiation therapy (28 treatments of 1.8 Gy for a total of 50.4 Gy) concurrent with capecitabine and oxaliplatin chemotherapy. The primary objective of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated doses of capecitabine and oxaliplatin when delivered concurrently with 50.4 Gy radiation therapy with or without surgery in this patient population. Secondary objectives of the study are to determine the tumor response rate, survival rate, local control rate and the rate of distant metastases following capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and radiation therapy with or without surgery and to determine the rate at which patients with unresectable disease become resectable.
To evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of RAD001 as monotherapy for first-line treatment of patients with metastatic papillary carcinoma of the kidney.
The purpose of this study is to define th Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the recommended dose (RD) of ZD6474 in combination with a fixed standard dose of gemcitabine and capecitabine
This phase II trial is studying how well giving gossypol together with androgen ablation therapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer. Gossypol may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate tumor cells. Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonists and drugs, such as bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Giving gossypol together with androgen ablation therapy may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer
This trial will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a combination of gemcitabine plus sorafenib in comparison of gemcitabine plus placebo as a first-line palliative therapy in chemo-naive advanced or metastatic CCC. There is strong scientific rationale for exploring the role of sorafenib in combination with gemcitabine in advanced CCC. Sorafenib is a novel signal transduction inhibitor that prevents tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis through blockade of the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway at the level of Raf kinase and the receptor tyrosine kinases VEGF-R2, R3 and PDGFR-β. Mutations in these signaling pathways display by far the most common genetic alterations in CCC and overexpression correlates to poor prognosis. Furthermore, there is no evidence of a consistent or meaningful pharmacokinetic interaction between sorafenib and gemcitabine, suggesting that sorafenib can safely be combined with gemcitabine. Clinical results of a combination of sorafenib and gemcitabine in a phase I study in pancreatic cancer suggested a therapeutic effect, and the safety and efficacy results together with the knowledge of the molecular pathology of CCC provide a rationale for a randomized, placebo-controlled phase II trial consisting of gemcitabine plus sorafenib in advanced CCC.
