Filter by:This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of tandutinib and to see how well it works in treating patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma.Tandutinib 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 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.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as Gliadel wafer and O6-benzylguanine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving Gliadel wafer together with O6-benzylguanine works in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.
RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as hydroxyurea, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving imatinib mesylate together with hydroxyurea may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving imatinib mesylate together with hydroxyurea works in treating patients with recurrent or progressive meningioma.
This is a Phase II, open-label, multicenter, randomized, non comparative study consisting of two concurrent single-arms. Approximately 160 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Arm 1 (bevacizumab alone) or Arm 2 (bevacizumab + irinotecan).
This is a Phase II, open-label, multicenter trial of single-agent treatment with Tarceva in patients with histologically confirmed GBM in first relapse. This study seeks to estimate the objective response rate and will investigate whether response rate is related to EGFR amplification status.
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.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of temozolomide compared to semustine in the treatment of patients with glioblastoma multiforme or anaplastic astrocytoma.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as cellular adoptive immunotherapy, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Aldesleukin may stimulate the white blood cells, including lymphokine-activated killer cells, to kill tumor cells. Giving cellular adoptive immunotherapy during or after surgery may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well cellular adoptive immunotherapy works in treating patients with glioblastoma multiforme.
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.
