Filter by:This randomized phase II trial studies how well bevacizumab with or without anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 (TRC105) works in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab and anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of recombinant interleukin-15 in treating patients with melanoma, kidney cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or head and neck cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Recombinant interleukin-(IL)15 is a biological product, a protein, made naturally in the body and when made in the laboratory may help stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing.
This randomized clinical trial studies educational counseling in improving communication and quality of life in spouses and breast cancer patients. An outpatient education and behavior skills training program may help spouses and patients with breast cancer communicate better and improve quality of life. It is not yet known whether educational counseling is more effective than an educational booklet in improving communication and quality of life.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well dalantercept works in treating patients with ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer that has returned. Dalantercept may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Dalantercept may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
To prospectively evaluate whether use of combined radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and percutaneous iodine-125 (125I) seeds implantation results in better survival compared with use of RFA alone in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
Using the subject with hepatocellular carcinoma in the conventional therapy to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ginsenoside Rg3 (20mg BID) and placebo in prevention and treatment of postoperative recurrence of liver cancer,respectively
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving cabozantinib-s-malate or paclitaxel works in treating patients with persistent or recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer. Cabozantinib-s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether cabozantinib-s-malate or paclitaxel is more effective at treating patients with persistent or recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of pazopanib hydrochloride (pazopanib) when given together with cetuximab in treating patients with incurable recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer. Pazopanib may stop the growth of cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Pazopanib may also block some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cetuximab is a monoclonal antibody that blocks the ability of some tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving pazopanib with cetuximab may provide a more effective treatment for patients with advanced head and neck cancer.
Disease and Stage: Metastatic and locally advanced clear cell renal carcinoma An open-label, exploratory, single-arm, multicenter trial. Everolimus will be administered orally, once daily, for 6 weeks followed by a 1-week rest period prior to nephrectomy. Two to four weeks after surgery, everolimus will be reintroduced only for metastatic patients until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or other stopping rules are met.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the quantitative detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with Epcam expressing tumors can be used compared to standard qualitative method - cytology both in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients, clinically suspected for leptomeningeal metastases.
