Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether INNO-206 is effective in the treatment of small cell lung cancer.
RATIONALE: Stereotactic body radiation therapy may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage I or stage II non-small cell lung cancer.
RATIONALE: Enzastaurin 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 carboplatin and gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. 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. Giving enzastaurin together with carboplatin and gemcitabine, with or without bevacizumab, may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving enzastaurin together with carboplatin and gemcitabine, with or without bevacizumab, works in treating patients with recurrent, stage IIIB, or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
Primary Objective The primary objective of this phase I-II study is to evaluate: - Phase I: Assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bortezomib in a weekly schedule with bevacizumab given every 3 weeks. - Phase II: Using the MTD established in phase I, assess efficacy of the combination as indicated by progression-free survival. Secondary Objectives The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate: - Response rates and duration of response - 1 year survival - Overall survival - Qualitative and quantitative toxicity - Circulating endothelial cells (CECs) prior to treatment, prior to cycle 2, and/or at the time of progression
RATIONALE: Treatment with radiosurgery, temozolomide, and erlotinib may affect brain function (the ability to think, learn, remember, and judge) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer and brain metastases. A study that evaluates brain function may help doctors plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the effect of radiosurgery, temozolomide, and erlotinib on brain function in patients with non-small cell lung cancer and brain metastases.
The trial evaluates the utility of 18FDG-PET/CT scan in the target definition process when SBRT is planned for stage I NSCLC.
To determine the dose and schedule of sirolimus when given in combination with panitumumab in adult subjects with Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC
- The purpose of the phase I portion of the study is to determine the safety and feasibility of neoadjuvant bortezomib in combination with docetaxel and cisplatin followed by surgery in early stage non-small cell lung cancer, via a multi-cohort dose escalation trial. - The phase II portion of the study will look at the clinical response rate and the pathology response rate. Other purposes are to look at surgical morbidity, mortality and respectability rates. Molecular correlates of response and survival to this neoadjuvant regimen will be explored.
RATIONALE: Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Gefitinib may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving gefitinib together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of radiation therapy when given together with gefitinib and to see how well they work in treating patients with inoperable stage I or stage II non-small cell lung cancer.
The aim of the study is to investigate the feasibility of in vivo single volume MR spectroscopy in evaluation of treatment response in patients with brain metastases, using 3T MR instrument. In order to optimize and avoid ineffective treatment of patients with brain metastases, in vivo MR spectroscopy can be an useful tool.
