Filter by:The purpose of this registry is to obtain a general view as regards efficacy, tolerability and safety issues of the Torisel®, Sutent®, and/or Inlyta® therapies in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, recurrent / refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and gastro-intestinal stroma tumors (GIST) under the conditions of routine use
To prove that the efficacy and safety of 'Green Cross CELL* Immuncell-LC group' is superior to 'non-treatment group(Control group)' in patient undergone curative resection(PEIT, RFA or operation) for hepatocellular carcinoma in Korea
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cixutumumab when given together with temsirolimus and to see how well they work in treating patients with breast cancer that has recurred (come back) at or near the same place as the original (primary) tumor or has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving cixutumumab together with temsirolimus may be a better treatment for breast cancer.
The aim of the study is to assess if gemcitabine in combination with carboplatin as 1st line chemotherapy in patients with metastatic or recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma has reasonable efficacy and a favourable toxicity profile that warrants further comparative study. A parallel group of randomly selected patients of equal number to the carboplatin and gemcitabine combination arm will be treated with the cisplatin and 5-FU combination chemotherapy (active control arm). The hypothesis is that this combination of chemotherapy is at least as active and less toxic than the reference regimen of cisplatin in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU).
The purpose of this study is to determine and compare the effect of this treatment on recurrence rate and to assess the toxicity in both arms of patients with STCC. Other objectives include determining the effects of this treatment on quality of life, and comparing the effect of Mycobacterium w on time to tumor progression.
To evaluate efficacy and safety of sorafenib versus placebo in the adjuvant treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) after potentially curative treatment (surgical resection or local ablation).
To evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of RAD001 as monotherapy for first-line treatment of patients with metastatic papillary carcinoma of the kidney.
To evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of RAD001 as monotherapy for first-line treatment of patients with metastatic papillary carcinoma of the kidney.
This phase II trial studies capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate to see how well they work compared with capecitabine, lapatinib ditosylate, and cixutumumab in treating patients with previously treated HER2-positive stage IIIB-IV breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with cixutumumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate are more effective when given with or without cixutumumab in treating breast cancer that has spread nearby or to other areas of the body.
Primary objective: to increase knowledge about safety, tolerability, quality of life and efficacy under conditions of routine use of SUTENT®. Secondary objectives: treatment response, hypothyroidism prevalence.The efficacy will be assessed using the Objective Response Rate, Time to Progression based on the RECIST criteria and the ECOG performance data.
