Filter by:RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bevacizumab together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bevacizumab together with several chemotherapy drugs (combination chemotherapy) works in treating patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma or natural killer cell neoplasms.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with isotretinoin in treating young patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, lymphoma, or leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Isotretinoin may cause cancer cells to look more like normal cells, and to grow and spread more slowly. Giving vorinostat together with isotretinoin may be an effective treatment for cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of early treatment with epoetin alfa in addition to best standard of care on hemoglobin levels and the need for red blood cell transfusions in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy as compared to patients receiving standard epoetin alfa treatment and best standard of care.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of irinotecan and cisplatin in combination with either capecitabine or continuous infusion 5-fluorouracil and to see what effects (good and bad) these have on patients with unresectable, advanced solid tumors.
The primary objectives of this study are to identify the maximum tolerated dose and to evaluate safety of atiprimod in patients with advanced cancer.
This study will examine whether the combination of two anaesthetic medications, propofol and remifentanil, is suitable for short duration surgical procedures, providing a shorter recovery time and fewer side effects than either drug used alone.
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of ONO-7436 for the prevention of cancer chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with malignant tumor
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of epoetin alfa (PROCRIT®) administered 80,000 Units every three weeks in cancer patients that are not receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the response rate obtained in an heterogeneous oncologic population treated by chemotherapy, and either by Darbepoetin alfa classic treatment or by association of Darbepoetin alfa -ferric saccharose systematic supplementation, administered concomitantly with chemotherapy.
Patients who have cancer of the bone marrow (leukemia) or lymph gland (lymphomas) are being asked to take part in this study. This study uses a new chemotherapy regimen and matched volunteer stem cell transplant to treat patients with cancers of this kind.
