Filter by:This randomized phase III trial studies how well giving cisplatin and radiation therapy together with or without carboplatin and paclitaxel works in treating patients with cervical cancer has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, carboplatin, and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of [cancer/tumor] cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. External radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays to kill tumor cells. Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether giving cisplatin and external and internal radiation therapy together with carboplatin and paclitaxel kills more tumor cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of paclitaxel and carboplatin after cisplatin and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage IB-IVA cervical cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, 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. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving paclitaxel and carboplatin after cisplatin and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with paclitaxel and cisplatin and to see how well they work in treating patients with cervical cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment or that has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and cisplatin, 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. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving chemotherapy together with veliparib may kill more tumor cells.
This phase II trial studies how well brivanib alaninate works in treating patients with cervical cancer that has come back. Brivanib alaninate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth or by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well vaccine therapy works in treating patients with cervical cancer that does not go to remission despite treatment (persistent) or has come back (recurrent). Vaccines therapy may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.
This phase II clinical trial is studying the how well veliparib, topotecan hydrochloride, and filgrastim or pegfilgrastim work in treating patients with persistent or recurrent cervical cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by blocking them from dividing. Giving veliparib with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. Filgrastim or pegfilgrastim may cause the body to make more blood cells and help it recover from the side effects of chemotherapy.
This randomized phase III trial studies radiation therapy with chemotherapy to see how well they work compared to radiation therapy alone in treating patients with stage I-IIA cervical cancer who previously underwent surgery. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, 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. It is not yet known whether giving radiation therapy together with chemotherapy is more effective than radiation therapy alone in treating patients with cervical cancer.
This clinical trial studies conservative surgery in treating patients with low-risk stage IA2 or IB1 cervical cancer. Conservative surgery is a less invasive type of surgery for early stage cervical cancer and may have fewer side effects and improve recovery.
This phase II trial studies the effects of temsirolimus in treating patients with cervical cancer that cannot be cured by standard therapy. Temsirolimus interferes with a protein in cells that is part of one pathway that sends signals to stimulate cell growth and survival. By blocking this protein cancer cells may stop growing or die.
Background: - Ixabepilone is a member of the class of drugs called epothilones. These drugs interfere with the ability of cancer cells to replicate. - Epothilones are similar to taxanes, another class of drugs, which includes the drug Taxol. Taxol is widely used to treat a variety of cancers. - Ixabepilone can work in cells that are resistant to Taxol. Objectives: - To determine whether ixabepilone is effective for treating cervical cancer. Eligibility: - Women 18 years of age or older with cervical cancer. Design: - Patients receive ixabepilone intravenously (through a vein) over 60 minutes on the first 5 days of each 21-day treatment cycle. Their dosage may be adjusted according to how their bodies respond to the drug. - The number of cycles each woman receives depends on her response to the treatment. - Patients have CT (computed tomography) scans and other tests before starting treatment and then every other treatment cycle to determine the response of the tumor to ixabepilone. - Patients who can undergo a tumor biopsy (surgical removal of a sample of tumor tissue) are asked to have a biopsy done before starting treatment with ixabepilone and again on the fourth or fifth day of treatment. This procedure is optional.
