Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Advanced Bladder or

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

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: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of giving gemcitabine, doxorubicin, and paclitaxel together with carboplatin in treating patients with advanced bladder or kidney cancer and impaired kidney function.

Clinical Trial Description

OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the safety and toxicity of dose-dense carboplatin plus paclitaxel on a weekly schedule given in sequence after gemcitabine and doxorubicin in patients with renal impairment and metastatic or locally advanced transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium.

- Observe the outcome of this sequential systemic chemotherapy in these patients, or following surgical resection as adjuvant therapy in patients in whom poor renal function precludes the use of cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study of carboplatin.

Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 10 minutes and doxorubicin IV over 15 minutes for 5 doses on weeks 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9. Filgrastim (G-CSF) is given subcutaneously on days 3 through 10 of each 2-week course. On week 11, patients receive paclitaxel and carboplatin IV over 1 hour weekly for 12 weeks.

Each cohort of 3 patients is entered on sequentially increasing doses of carboplatin. If any patient experiences dose limiting toxicity (DLT), then 6 patients are entered at that dose level. If 3 patients experience DLT at any dose level, the maximum tolerated dose has been surpassed and a total of 6 patients are treated at the previous level.

Patients are evaluated at week 16 and at end of study.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: There will be 18-30 patients accrued into this study over 9-15 months. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
