Filter by:To evaluate the anti-tumor activity of SU011248 (sunitinib) in cytokine-refractory metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) when administered in a continuous treatment regimen
The purpose of this study is to find out if renal cell (kidney) cancer that has spread to other parts of the body will respond to treatment with motexafin gadolinium (MGd).
The purpose of this study is to determine an active dose of ATN-161 for future studies while establishing preliminary evidence of effectiveness in patients with renal cell cancer.
The primary objective of this protocol is to provide access to SU011248 treatment for patients with metastatic RCC who are ineligible for participation in ongoing SU011248 clinical studies and have the potential to derive clinical benefit from treatment with SU011248 based on the judgment of the investigator.
Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib before and after surgery may be an effective treatment for kidney cancer. This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for metastatic kidney cancer.
This randomized phase II trial is studying sorafenib and interferon alfa-2b to see how well they work compared to sorafenib alone in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Interferon alfa-2b may interfere with the growth of tumor cells. Sorafenib and interferon alfa-2b may also block blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with interferon alfa-2b may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sorafenib tosylate and bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with advanced kidney cancer. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth by targeting certain cells. Bevacizumab and sorafenib tosylate may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib tosylate together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
This phase II trial is studying how well giving bevacizumab together with interleukin-2 works in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Interleukin-2 may stimulate the white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Giving bevacizumab together with interleukin-2 may kill more tumor cells.
This is an international, open label, randomized phase 3 trial in which patients with surgically removable kidney cancer will be randomly selected post-operatively to receive adjuvant treatment with autologous HSPPC-96 or no adjuvant treatment. All patients will undergo complete surgical removal of their tumors.
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sorafenib, gemcitabine, and capecitabine and to see how well they work in treating patients with unresectable and/or metastatic kidney cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving sorafenib together with gemcitabine and capecitabine may kill more tumor cells.
