NCT ID: NCT00324870 Completed - Clinical trials for Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Vorinostat and Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With Unresectable or Metastatic Kidney Cancer

Start date: February 2006
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic kidney cancer. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, 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. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of kidney cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving vorinostat together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00182702 Completed - Clinical trials for Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Ixabepilone in Treating Patients With Metastatic, Recurrent, or Unresectable Kidney Cancer

Start date: July 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic, recurrent, or unresectable kidney cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing

NCT ID: NCT00101114 Completed - Clinical trials for Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Sorafenib and Interferon Alfa in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Kidney Cancer

Start date: September 2004
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib with interferon alfa works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable kidney cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of kidney cancer. Sorafenib may help interferon alfa work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug

NCT ID: NCT00089362 Completed - Clinical trials for Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific

Alvespimycin Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Solid Tumors

Start date: July 2004
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of alvespimycin hydrochloride in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as alvespimycin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

NCT ID: NCT00060307 Completed - Clinical trials for Stage IV Renal Cell Cancer

Erlotinib in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Papillary Renal Cell Cancer

Start date: May 2003
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial is studying how well erlotinib works in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic papillary renal cell (kidney) cancer. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth

NCT ID: NCT00032188 Completed - Clinical trials for Stage IV Renal Cell Cancer

Interleukin-2 and Bryostatin 1 in Treating Patients With Advanced Kidney Cancer

Start date: January 2002
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining bryostatin 1 with interleukin-2 may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining interleukin-2 and bryostatin 1 in treating patients who have advanced kidney cancer

NCT ID: NCT00005799 Completed - Clinical trials for Recurrent Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Fludarabine Phosphate, Low-Dose Total Body Irradiation, and Donor Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Hematologic Malignancies or Kidney Cancer

Start date: November 1999
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial studies fludarabine phosphate, low-dose total body irradiation, and donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic malignancies or kidney cancer. Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate, and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help increase this effect. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine before the transplant and cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.

NCT ID: NCT00004074 Completed - Clinical trials for Fallopian Tube Cancer

Interleukin-12 and Trastuzumab in Treating Patients With Cancer That Has High Levels of HER2/Neu

Start date: August 1999
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Interleukin-12 may kill tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor and by stimulating a person's white blood cells to kill cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of interleukin-12 and trastuzumab in treating patients who have cancer that has high levels of HER2/neu and has not responded to previous therapy
