NCT ID: NCT00369590 Completed - Adult Gliosarcoma Clinical Trials

VEGF Trap in Treating Patients With Recurrent Malignant Gliomas That Did Not Respond to Temozolomide

Start date: August 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial is studying how well VEGF Trap works in treating patients with recurrent malignant or anaplastic gliomas that did not respond to temozolomide. VEGF Trap may stop the growth of malignant or anaplastic gliomas by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

NCT ID: NCT00335764 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Sorafenib Combined With Erlotinib, Tipifarnib, or Temsirolimus in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme or Gliosarcoma

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

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of erlotinib, tipifarnib, and temsirolimus when given together with sorafenib and to see how well they work in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma. Sorafenib, erlotinib, tipifarnib, and temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib and tipifarnib may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with erlotinib, tipifarnib, or temsirolimus may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00329719 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Sorafenib Tosylate and Temsirolimus in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma

Start date: March 24, 2006
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with sorafenib tosylate and to see how well they work in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temsirolimus, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sorafenib tosylate and temsirolimus may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving sorafenib tosylate with temsirolimus may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00316849 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Temsirolimus, Temozolomide, and Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme

Start date: May 2006
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with temozolomide and radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving temsirolimus together with temozolomide and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00305864 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Motexafin Gadolinium, Temozolomide, and Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme or Gliosarcoma

Start date: February 9, 2006
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of motexafin gadolinium when given together with temozolomide and radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with newly diagnosed supratentorial glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Motexafin gadolinium may help temozolomide work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Motexafin gadolinium may also make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving motexafin gadolinium together with temozolomide and radition therapy may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00305656 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

AZD2171 in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme

Start date: January 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial is studying how well AZD2171 works in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme. AZD2171 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor

NCT ID: NCT00268385 Active, not recruiting - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Vorinostat and Temozolomide in Treating Patients With Malignant Gliomas

Start date: December 16, 2005
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with temozolomide in treating patients with malignant gliomas. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vorinostat may help temozolomide work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving vorinostat together with temozolomide may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00238303 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Vorinostat in Treating Patients With Progressive or Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme

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

This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with progressive or recurrent glioblastoma multiforme. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving vorinostat before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving it after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00112866 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Cilengitide in Treating Patients Who Are Undergoing Surgery for Recurrent or Progressive Glioblastoma Multiforme

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

Cilengitide may stop the growth of glioblastoma multiforme by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving cilengitide before and after surgery may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme. This phase II trial is studying how well cilengitide works in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for recurrent or progressive glioblastoma multiforme.

NCT ID: NCT00112736 Completed - Adult Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

Erlotinib and Temsirolimus in Treating Patients With Recurrent Malignant Glioma

Start date: April 2005
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Erlotinib and temsirolimus and may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with erlotinib and to see how well they work in treating patients with recurrent malignant glioma.
