Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of 852A when used to treat metastatic breast, ovarian, endometrial or cervical cancer not responding to standard treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational drug called MORAb-003 is useful by itself or when used with other approved cancer drugs in treating women with ovarian cancer. MORAb-003 is a monoclonal antibody directed against an antigen on most ovarian cancers.
The purposes of this study are: 1. To determine the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) weekly of topotecan in combination with standard dose gefitinib in patients with relapsed, platinum-resistant, ovarian, peritoneal or fallopian tube cancers that are epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) positive (>/= 1+). 2. To determine the response rate and response duration in this patient population treated with the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of topotecan administered on a weekly schedule in combination with standard dose gefitinib, given by way of the mouth (PO) daily.
This study was designed to find the most effective and safest doses of both HYCAMTIN and CARBOPLATIN that can be given for the treatment of ovarian cancer. This study may allow researchers to determine the effectiveness of combining HYCAMTIN and CARBOPLATIN.
Currently, no data exists regarding the safety and tolerability of a combination regimen utilizing weekly topotecan in combination with pemetrexed. Although both drugs are associated with myelosuppression, it is hoped that the utilization of the weekly topotecan dosing schedule will allow the drugs to be easily combined. This phase I trial will evaluate the safety and tolerability of weekly topotecan in combination with pemetrexed in patients with advanced solid tumors.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the ability of multiple serum biomarkers to estimate the risk of ovarian cancer in women presenting with pelvic mass (defined as a simple, complex or a solid ovarian cyst / pelvic mass).
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Lapatinib may help paclitaxel work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Lapatinib may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lapatinib together with paclitaxel may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lapatinib when given together with paclitaxel in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.
Determination of total survival under Topotecan Monotherapy, Topotecan + Etoposide and Topotecan + Gemcitabine in second-line therapy in patient with recurrent ovarian cancer.
This randomized phase II trial is studying zoledronate to see how well it works compared to observation in maintaining bone mineral density in patients who are undergoing surgery to remove both ovaries. Zoledronate may prevent bone loss in patients who are undergoing surgery to remove the ovaries.
RATIONALE: Talabostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving talabostat together with temozolomide or carboplatin may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of talabostat when given together with temozolomide or carboplatin in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory brain tumors or other solid tumors.
