Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of cilengitide when given together with paclitaxel weekly in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread nearby or to other areas of the body and cannot be removed by surgery. Cilengitide may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to the stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving cilengitide together with paclitaxel may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with advanced solid malignancies (abnormal cells divide without control and can invade nearby tissues) with peritoneal carcinomatosis, epithelial ovarian, fallopian, or primary peritoneal cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x rays to kill tumor cells. Giving veliparib with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of Akt inhibitor MK2206 (MK2206) when given together with paclitaxel and to see how well they work in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment or breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving Akt inhibitor MK2206 and paclitaxel may be a better treatment for solid tumors or breast cancer.
This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of RO4929097 in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving ABT-888 together with gemcitabine hydrochloride in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. ABT-888 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving ABT-888 together with gemcitabine hydrochloride may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 and cediranib maleate together in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate also may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
This phase I clinical trial studies the safety and best dose of selumetinib and cixutumumab in treating patients with advanced solid malignancies. Selumetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry [cancer/tumor]-killing substances to them.
This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects and the best dose of azacitidine and oxaliplatin in treating patients with advanced cancers that do not respond to treatment or have returned after any platinum therapy. Azacitidine is designed to activate (turn on) certain genes in cancer cells whose job is to fight tumors. Oxaliplatin is designed to block the growth and spread of new cancer cells, eventually destroying them, by damaging their deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Giving azacitidine with oxaliplatin may kill more cancer cells and may also reverse resistance to platinum-based drugs.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if selumetinib is safe and effective in treating patients with cancers with a mutated BRAF gene. Selumetinib is an investigational drug that works by blocking a protein called MEK, which is known to play a role in the growth of cancer cells lines and tumors that have a mutated BRAF gene. There are multiple types of cancers that have mutations in the BRAF gene and depend on the activity of this gene for their growth and survival.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of sunitinib malate when given together with hydroxychloroquine in treating patients with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to chemotherapy. Sunitinib malate 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. Hydroxychloroquine may help sunitinib malate work better in treating solid tumors. Giving sunitinib malate together with hydroxychloroquine may kill more tumor cells.
