Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate activity and toxicity of the combination of carboplatin and liposomal doxorubicin as first-line chemotherapy of patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial carcinoma.
The primary objectives of this study are: 1. To assess the preferences of cancer patients scheduled to receive chemoradiation and caregiver controls for side-effects of chemoradiation. 1. To compare preferences of cancer patients to those of healthy individuals. 2. To compare how patients' preferences for side-effects of chemoradiation change over time. 2. To longitudinally assess the quality of life of cancer patients scheduled to receive chemoradiation. 3. To determine the impact of nausea and vomiting associated with chemoradiation on patients' quality of life and evaluate potential change throughout the duration of chemoradiation treatment.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if cetuximab can help to control the disease in patients who have recurrent endometrial cancer. Primary Objective: 1. To determine the overall disease control rate of cetuximab in patients with progressive or recurrent endometrial cancer. Secondary Objectives: 1. To determine the duration of disease control, time to disease progression, and survival of this cohort of patients. 2. To determine the nature and degree of toxicity of cetuximab in this cohort of patients. 3. To correlate biologic markers with response to therapy if tissue is available.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the quality of life of long-term gynecologic cancer survivors.
Primary Objective: - To estimate the antitumor activity of the combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with advanced (stage III or IV) or recurrent endometrial cancer. Secondary Objective: - To determine the nature and degree of toxicity of the combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin in this cohort of patients.
RATIONALE: Fondaparinux may help prevent blood clots from forming in patients who are undergoing surgery for gynecologic cancer. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well fondaparinux works in preventing blood clots in patients undergoing surgery for gynecologic cancer.
The intent of this protocol is to screen a new agent for activity in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial carcinoma. This phase II trial is studying how well pemetrexed disodium works in treating patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial carcinoma.
RATIONALE: External-beam radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Implant radiation therapy uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. Giving external-beam radiation therapy or implant radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. Sometimes, after surgery, the tumor may not need more treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy is more effective than observation when given after surgery in treating stage I endometrial cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying external-beam radiation therapy or implant radiation therapy to see how well they work compared with observation in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stage I endometrial cancer.
The objectives for this study: 1. Investigate some of the causes for the racial disparity of endometrial cancer survival rates among black and white women 2. Examine the biologic correlates of aggressive behavior such as estrogen receptor status, p53 and HER-2/neu overexpression, and aromatase activity
The purpose of this study is to determine whether post-operative concurrent chemoradiation with paclitaxel is effective and safe in the treatment of high risk postoperative endometrial cancer patients.
