Filter by:To evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of MDX-1106 when administered to patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, malignant melanoma, clear cell renal cell cancer or hormone refractory prostate cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of therapy to strengthen the immune system (Interleukin - 2) plus a specific tumor target therapy (Bevacizumab) can prolong the time between the start of treatment and disease progression, decrease tumor size, as well as determine if the combination therapy is safer and less toxic than the standard treatment for renal cell carcinoma.
Primary Objectives: 1. To compare the overall survival of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients undergoing HLA-matched related donor nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (NST) using fludarabine-melphalan (FM) versus fludarabine-cyclophosphamide (FC) conditioning regimen. 2. To assess both cytotoxic T lymphocyte reactivity and antibodies activity against potential tumor antigenic peptides involved in graft-versus-RCC effect. Secondary Objectives: 1. To study the patient characteristics of metastatic RCC patients who undergo NST and those who do not undergo NST. 2. To compare the incidence of Day-100 treatment-related mortality in FM group and FC group.
This is a study using sunitinib for patients ending treatment on a previous sunitinib malate protocol to continue to receive sunitinib. The patient must have been enrolled in one of the following studies: A6181030, A6181064, A6181078, A6181087, A6181094, A6181107, A6181108, A6181110, A6181111, A6181112, A6181113, A6181120, A6181126 and A6181170. Other Pfizer sponsored sunitinib studies may be included in the future.
RATIONALE: Sunitinib and erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cell by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sunitinib together with erlotinib may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the best dose of erlotinib when given together with sunitinib and to see how well they work in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic kidney cancer.
A multi-center, open-label, extended treatment, clinical trial examining the safety of administering multiple does of panitumumab by intravenous (i.v.) infusion to patients who have previously received panitumumab and benefited from treatment
Multicenter, 2-part, multiple-dose study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of weekly administration of panitumumab in subjects with renal carcinoma. Part 1 was initiated in 2001 and will not be presented here. Part 2 was designed to examine a dose of 2.5 mg/kg/wk in 2 cohorts.
Cediranib is being tested to assess its effectiveness on the growth of kidney cancer tumours and also how well it is tolerated.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CAP-232 in the treatment of patients with previously treated (refractory) renal cell carcinoma
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of RAD-001 and Sunitinib given in combination for renal cell cancer. We also want to find out what effects (good and bad) the combination of RAD-001 and Sunitinib have on you and your tumor. RAD001 is a pill that works by shutting down some of the pathways in the cell that make tumors grow. Sunitinib is a pill that works by shutting off the signal in the cancer cells that tell the cells to grow blood vessels. Without this signal, the blood vessels to the tumors shrink down.
