Filter by:RATIONALE: A Web site for stem cell transplant health information and support may be effective in helping parents improve their health-related knowledge, skills, and quality of life, which may also improve their children's quality of life. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying a Web-based stem cell transplant support system to see how well it works compared with standard care in families of young patients undergoing a stem cell transplant.
Goals of this registry: 1.1 To collect and store very limited demographic information (age, birthdate, race and ethnicity), limited cancer risk and breast and ovarian disease history, as well as limited family history of breast and ovarian cancer on patients who are at risk of breast or ovarian cancer or who have had a diagnosis of either cancer, 1.2 To make available summary information (in an anonymous form) regarding the subjects in this registry to Consortium members, and other investigators, who can use these data to plan research projects and evaluate the feasibility of such projects, 1.3 To make available summary information (number of new patients seen in the clinic, number of mutations, number of preventive surgeries, average age of patients seen) to the Lynne Cohen Foundation for Ovarian Cancer Research, in order to document the numbers of subjects who utilize their supported clinics.
This study is a 2 part, 2 cohort, open-label, dose escalation/de escalation study of AMG 386 in combination with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or topotecan in subjects with recurrent ovarian cancer. Up to 100 subjects will be enrolled to receive AMG 386 in combination with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin every 4 weeks (cohort A) or topotecan weekly on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day dosing schedule (cohort B). Subject enrollment and assignment to either cohort will be based on eligibility and the investigator's discretion. It is hypothesized that AMG 386, in combination with each of the chemotherapy regimens: either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or topotecan will be safe and well tolerated in subjects with recurrent ovarian cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of sunitinib on participants with ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer. Sunitinib is a newly discovered drug that may stop cancer cells from growing by blocking the blood supply to the tumor.
A multi-center, open-label, two-arm, dose-escalation study to establish the safety, tolerability, MTD, and schedule of TLI administered intravenously as a 30 minute infusion in adult subjects with advanced solid tumors that have relapsed, are refractory to standard therapy, or for whom there is no standard therapy available. The two dosing regimens to be evaluated are: - Arm A: TLI dose on Days 1 and 8 of a 21-day treatment cycle (Starting dose: 1 mg/m2) - Arm B: TLI dose on Day 1 of a 21-day treatment cycle (Starting dose: 2 mg/m2) When one of the two arms reaches MTD, all future subjects will then be enrolled in the remaining study arm until MTD of that arm is reached.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of exhaled breath from patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, polycystic ovarian syndrome, or endometriosis and from healthy participants in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors find and diagnose ovarian epithelial cancer sooner, when it may be easier to treat. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying exhaled breath biomarkers to see how well they find ovarian epithelial cancer in patients with newly diagnosed ovarian epithelial cancer, polycystic ovarian syndrome, or endometriosis and in healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of XL147 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in adults with solid tumors. XL147 is a new chemical entity that inhibits PI3 Kinase. Inactivation of PI3K has been shown to inhibit growth and induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in tumor cells. In clinical practice, the combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin is an accepted treatment regimen for various solid tumors, including ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The primary purpose of this study to determine if AZD2281 is effective and well tolerated in maintaining the improvement in your cancer after previous platinum-based chemotherapy
This study investigates the safety and efficacy of Acetyl-L-Carnitine and compares it to the safety and efficacy of a placebo (inactive) tablet in the prevention of Sagopilone-induced peripheral neuropathy. Patients will receive intravenous infusion of sagopilone for 3 hours on day 1 of a 3-weeks cycle. Treatment with Sagopilone will be given as long as the patient is benefitting. In addition patients will receive ALC or placebo, starting 1 week before first sagopilone infusion and ending 30-33 days after the last infusion with sagopilone. Safety will be determined by laboratory and other evaluations. Efficacy of ALC will be determined by the incidence of all grades of peripheral neuropathy with the results of a patient questionnaire. Efficacy of the combination of ALC and Sagopilone will be determined by the tumor response.
This trial will determine the feasibility and toxicity of dose intense (every 2 weeks) of paclitaxel+carboplatin combination following cytoreductive surgery in patients with stage Ic-IV ovarian cancer.
