Filter by:The purpose of the protocol is to to assess subject's overall satisfaction regarding control of diarrhea. The study aims to supplement results obtained through clinical trials with data obtained from a population of patients receiving treatment with Somatuline Autogel in routine practice.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of cixutumumab when given together with everolimus and octreotide acetate in treating patients with advanced low- or intermediate-grade neuroendocrine cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, may find tumor cells and help carry tumor-killing substances to them. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Octreotide acetate may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of neuroendocrine cancer. Giving cixutumumab together with everolimus and octreotide acetate may be a better treatment for neuroendocrine cancer.
The purpose of this study is to test a new drug called MK-2206. This study is a phase II study. In cancer studies, a phase II study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, a new treatment has against a certain type of cancer. MK-2206 is an oral medication known as a targeted therapy. By attaching to the target, we hope that MK-2206 may stop the cancer cells from further growth and dividing. This study will help find out if MK-2206 is a helpful drug when taken in patients with neuroendocrine tumor.
RATIONALE: Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vinorelbine ditartrate, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving temsirolimus together with vinorelbine ditartrate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving temsirolimus and vinorelbine ditartrate together in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors.
- According to Martin F et al, AKT is highly phosphorylated in phenochromocytoma but not in benign adrenocortical tumors. - In nonfunctioning carcinoid, the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is activated. - Although mTOR is clearly an attractive therapeutic target in tumor, no clinical study on mTOR inhibition by RAD001 have been conducted in pheochromocytoma or extra-adrenal paraganglioma or non-functioning carcinoid. - So we design this phase II study of RAD001 in pheochromocytoma or extra-adrenal paraganglioma or non-functioning carcinoid to evaluate the efficacy of RAD001 in this orphan disease.
We hope to determine the importance of different genes (including B receptors) in anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy. This has important benefits to patients exposed to anthracyclines, as this could help determine whether certain individuals have increased susceptibility to cardiac injury.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Sunitinib on the clinical benefit response rate.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of orally administered telotristat etiprate (LX1606) in participants with symptomatic carcinoid syndrome.
To determine the response rate of pazopanib when administered as monotherapy in patients with unresectable neuroendocrine tumor.
The primary aim of this project is to determine, what fraction of individuals with neuroendocrine tumors would show substantially improved tumor dosimetry with combined agent therapy compared to "best" single agent therapy and determine the magnitude of the potential tumor radiation dose increase.
