Filter by:The purpose of the Phase Ib portion is to find out the highest dose of study drug that can safely be given when tested in a small group of subjects. The purpose of the Phase II portion is to find out how safe the study drug is when taken at the highest dose in a larger group of subjects.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and urine in the laboratory from patients with cancer receiving bevacizumab may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to high blood pressure. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying potential biomarkers for bevacizumab-induced high blood pressure in patients with malignant solid tumors, including breast cancer, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck cancer, ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal carcinoma.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Irinotecan Beads in combination with intravenous cetuximab versus intravenous irinotecan in combination with intravenous cetuximab in the treatment of patients with unresectable liver metastases from colorectal cancer. Secondary objectives are safety and tolerability of hepatic chemoembolization and the question if the addition of aprepitant to standard antiemetic prophylaxis in patients treated by hepatic chemoembolization is safe and will reduce the rate of acute and delayed nausea and emesis.
Bevacizumab given at 7.5mg/kg. IV over 10-90 minutes every 3 weeks until disease progression.Panitumumab given at 9mg/kg. IV over 30-90 minutes every 3 weeks until disease progression.Primary Objective: To determine the safety of every 3 week panitumumab and bevacizumab as maintenance therapy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
For patients with primarily generalized colorectal cancer two treatment strategies are compared to establish which strategy gives best overall survival. The traditional strategy is to first resect the primary colorectal tumour and then treat the metastases with chemotherapy followed if possible by surgery. The alternative strategy is to first treat the metastases with chemotherapy followed if possible by surgery and only resect the primary colorectal tumour if there is hope for cure or if symptoms develop that necessitates treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lenalidomide in combination with cetuximab is safe and effective in patients with KRAS mutant colorectal cancer.
This study plans to learn more about an investigational drug called OSI-906. OSI-906 is being looked at to see if it could be a treatment for advanced cancer. "The FDA is the U.S. government agency that reviews the results of research of drugs and decides if it can be sold in the U.S. OSI-906 has been given to over 185 people with cancer.
RATIONALE: Rosuvastatin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rosuvastatin after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It may also keep polyps from forming or colon cancer from coming back. It is not yet known whether rosuvastatin is more effective than a placebo in treating colon cancer that was removed by surgery. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying rosuvastatin to see how well it works compared with placebo in treating patients with stage I or stage II colon cancer that was removed by surgery.
This study is being performed to test if the use of high dose of cetuximab in combination with irinotecan overcomes the resistance seen with standard dose of cetuximab plus irinotecan in patients with wild type KRS tumors that have advanced colon or rectal cancer
Monotherapy treatment with CS-7017 to assess progression-free-survival (PFS) of subjects who achieved an objective response of Disease Control on first line therapy with Folinic acid (leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU), Oxaliplatin (Eloxatin) known as FOLFOX; or Folinic acid (leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU), irinotecan (Camptosar) known as FOLFIRI.
