Filter by:This was an open-label study conducted comparing the toxicity and antitumor activity of ABI-007 (Abraxane®, nab®-paclitaxel) to docetaxel (Taxotere).
The goal of this phase I clinical study is to find the highest safe dose of gemcitabine and CT-2103 that can be given in combination for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. The safety and effectiveness of this combination will also be studied. This clinical trial will be offered to patients who are being considered for treatment with gemcitabine. Research lab samples and research biopsies will not be requested as part of this study.
This study tests the hypothesis that SU11248 can delay tumor progression after tumor mass reduction by taxanes. This is a dual-arm open-label randomized multicenter phase II clinical trial with 2:1 randomization evaluating the efficacy of SU11248 versus nil in patients with metastatic breast cancer after objective response to taxane chemotherapy. Patients randomized to the placebo arm (Arm B) will be offered the opportunity to receive open-label SU011248 treatment upon development of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)-defined disease progression.
To determine the objective response rate (ORR) of oral satraplatin in patients with Metastatic Breast Cancer.
This is a Phase II, open-label, non-randomized study in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Each cycle of treatment will be 4 weeks in length. Patients will be radiologically evaluated every 8 weeks for response. Patients will continue to receive study treatment until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
The purpose of this study is to determine if acquired hormone therapy resistance can be reversed by Avastin (Bevacizumab), as measured by time to disease progression and evaluate toxicity of the combination of hormone treatment plus Avastin (Bevacizumab).
In vitro data suggest synergy between oxaliplatin and 5-FU. The combination of oxaliplatin with 5-fluorouracil produced objective response rates ranging from 27-34% in two studies of patients with prior chemotherapy. Capecitabine was designed as an orally administered, tumor selective fluoropyrimidine, preferentially converted to 5-FU at the tumor site by the higher levels of pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase (PyNPase) in tumor tissues compared to normal tissues. The end result is higher concentrations of 5-fluorouracil in tumor relative to surrounding normal tissue. This trial will investigate the activity of this novel capecitabine/oxaliplatin (CAPOX) combination in patients with advanced disease. In addition, an exploratory analysis will correlate response with thymidine synthase and thymidine phosphorylase expression in primary tumor samples.
The purpose of this study is to attempt to find better tolerated doses and schedules of this highly effective combination chemotherapy regimen.
Patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and with measurable primary breast tumor will be treated with 70mg docetaxel combined with ketoconazole. Serial tumor biopsies and plasma samples will be taken for gene expression and proteomics studies to identify biomarkers that may predict for treatment response.
We hypothesize that changes in tumor gene expression profiles vary in response to different sequences and types of chemotherapy, and that gene expression changes will correlate with tumor response. We are also looking to correlate drug pharmacokinetics and treatment toxicity with genotype of drug metabolizing enzymes and tranporters.Patients with metastatic breast cancer and who have measurable primary breast tumor will be randomized to one of two alternating sequences of adriamycin and docetaxel. Serial tumor biopsies and plasma samples will be obtained for gene expression and proteomic studies to identify biomarkers that will predict for chemotherapy response.
