Filter by:RATIONALE: Knowing the level of oxygen in tumor tissue may help predict the effectiveness of anticancer therapy. EF5 may be effective in measuring oxygen in tumor tissue and helping to predict the effectiveness of anticancer therapy. PURPOSE: Diagnostic trial to study the effectiveness of EF5 in detecting tumor hypoxia in patients who have stage IIB, stage IIIB, or stage IVA cervical cancer.
RATIONALE: Epoetin beta may stimulate red blood cell production to prevent or control anemia in patients treated with chemotherapy and radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Randomized phase IV trial to determine the effectiveness of epoetin beta in treating anemia in patients who are receiving cisplatin and radiation therapy for stage IIB, stage III, or stage IVA cervical cancer.
RATIONALE: Screening tests may help doctors detect abnormal cells in the cervix early and plan effective treatment. PURPOSE: Screening trial to compare different types of screening tests used to detect cervical neoplasia.
RATIONALE: Octreotide may be effective in preventing or controlling diarrhea in patients who are undergoing radiation therapy to the pelvis. It is not yet known whether octreotide is effective for diarrhea. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of octreotide in preventing diarrhea in patients who are undergoing radiation therapy to the pelvis.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of combining liposomal doxorubicin with carboplatin in treating patients who have gynecologic cancer.
This phase II trial is studying erlotinib to see how well it works in treating patients with persistent or recurrent cancer of the cervix. Biological therapies such as erlotinib may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of the tumor
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain substances to try to prevent the development of cancer. Applying topical imiquimod before abnormal cervical cells are removed may be effective in preventing cervical cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of applying topical imiquimod before abnormal cervical cells are removed in preventing cervical cancer in patients who have recurrent or persistent cervical neoplasia.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving 7-hydroxystaurosporine together with irinotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer (currently enrolling only patients with triple-negative breast cancer since 6/8/2007). Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving 7-hydroxystaurosporine together with irinotecan hydrochloride may help kill more cancer cells by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug.
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of erlotinib in treating patients who have metastatic or unresectable solid tumors and liver or kidney dysfunction. Biological therapies such as erlotinib may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of the tumor
RATIONALE: Biological therapy with drugs such as SU5416 may stop the growth of cervical cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of SU5416 in treating patients who have persistent or recurrent cervical cancer.
