Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well pazopanib hydrochloride works in treating patients with advanced neuroendocrine cancer. Pazopanib hydrochloride 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.
This is a study using sunitinib for patients ending treatment on a previous sunitinib malate protocol to continue to receive sunitinib. The patient must have been enrolled in one of the following studies: A6181030, A6181064, A6181078, A6181087, A6181094, A6181107, A6181108, A6181110, A6181111, A6181112, A6181113, A6181120, A6181126 and A6181170. Other Pfizer sponsored sunitinib studies may be included in the future.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of everolimus in the treatment of advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET) not responsive to cytotoxic chemotherapy. All patients were treated with everolimus until either tumor progression was documented using a standard criteria that measures tumor size called Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid tumors (RECIST), or until unacceptable toxicity occurred, or until the patient or investigator requested discontinuation of treatment.
This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib tosylate works in treating patients with progressive metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Sorafenib tosylate 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.
Objectives: Primary endpoint: -Assess the clinical activity of RAD 001 plus depot octreotide as defined by progression free survival (PFS) duration defined by RECIST criteria in treated and untreated patients with metastatic, unresectable low grade neuroendocrine carcinoma. Secondary endpoints: - Assess the progression free survival duration of patients with metastatic, unresectable low grade neuroendocrine carcinoma treated with RAD 001 plus depot octreotide. - Assess the safety of RAD 001 plus depot octreotide in patients with metastatic, unresectable low grade neuroendocrine carcinoma. - To determine the expression/phosphorylation status of the components of the mTOR signaling pathway in the primary tumors, in order to determine whether these markers can be used as predictors of sensitivity to the combination of RAD001 and octreotide. - To determine the effect of the combination of RAD001 and octreotide on the expression and phosphorylation of mTOR's targets in the accessible tumor tissue, in order to identify potential pharmacodynamics markers of response to this drug combination. - To observe the effects of treatment with RAD001 on plasma angiogenic biomarkers.
This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with progressive metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CCI-779, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
This phase II trial is studying how well gefitinib works in treating patients with progressive metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth.
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
