Filter by:This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of zoledronic acid administered intravenously every 3-4 weeks in patients with bone metastases from either breast cancer or prostate cancer.
We will study the effect of dietary intervention in patients with prostate cancer. Outcomes include serum PSA kinetics, as well as biomarkers of inflammation, antioxidant status, oxidative stress and oxidative damage in blood cells, plasma, urine and prostate tissues
During the 7 to 8 weeks of conformal radiotherapy for prostate carcinoma, the prostate has an intra-pelvic motion which is not detectable by the conventional portal imaging. This prostate motion may lead to a mistargeting, which possibly decreases the local control. On the other hand, the new 3D on board imaging (3D OBI) allows to localize the target but is expensive. The cost/effectiveness ratio is not well established, as well as the frequency of using such imaging during the course of radiation.
RATIONALE: Chemotherapy may cause blood clots to form in the thigh, leg, and lung. This study may help doctors understand how often blood clots occur in patients undergoing chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how often blood clots occur in patients undergoing chemotherapy for solid tumors, including colorectal cancer, stomach cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, or metastatic breast cancer
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as anti-IL-6 chimeric monoclonal antibody, 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. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well anti-IL-6 chimeric monoclonal antibody works in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that did not respond to hormone therapy.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment. It may also help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at blood samples from patients receiving trastuzumab and/or chemotherapy for HER2-positive solid tumors to assess T-cell response.
The purpose of this study is to test different methods for communicating information about prostate cancer treatment to men. The investigators are studying how best to present information so men can make informed decisions about what prostate cancer treatment to undergo.
Purpose: To determine the efficacy of BAY 43-9006 in combination with bicalutamide in patients with chemo-naïve hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Hypothesis: That there will be PSA response when BAY 43-9006 in combination with bicalutamide is given to patients with chemo-naïve hormone-refractory prostate cancer.
The purpose is to see how quickly two different types of prostate cancer participants respond when taking enzastaurin. Cohort 1 - asymptomatic participants with androgen-independent prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-progressive disease without clinical or radiographic evidence of metastatic disease. Cohort 2 - participants with androgen-independent metastatic prostate cancer (documented bone or soft tissue metastases) with rising PSA, clinical, radiographic disease progression following one prior docetaxel-based regimen
This is a study using sunitinib for patients ending treatment on a previous sunitinib malate protocol to continue to receive sunitinib. The patient must have been enrolled in one of the following studies: A6181030, A6181064, A6181078, A6181087, A6181094, A6181107, A6181108, A6181110, A6181111, A6181112, A6181113, A6181120, A6181126 and A6181170. Other Pfizer sponsored sunitinib studies may be included in the future.
