Filter by:The HEPAR study is aimed at determining the safety of radioactive holmium containing microspheres for the treatment of tumors in the liver. These microspheres will be administered by infusion in the liver artery using a arterial catheter in the femoral artery.
The purpose of this study is to determine the response of liver tumors to radiation therapy using Tomotherapy.
This is a Phase I study; dose escalating the combination of pazopanib when taken daily and ixabepilone when administered on day 1 of a 3 week treatment course.
RATIONALE: 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. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride and mitomycin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Chemoembolization kills tumor cells by carrying drugs directly into the tumor and blocking the blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib tosylate together with chemoembolization may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of sorafenib tosylate when given together with chemoembolization with doxorubicin hydrochloride and mitomycin in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.
This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus and bevacizumab work in treating patients with advanced endometrial, ovarian, liver, carcinoid, or islet cell cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving temsirolimus together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Chemoembolization kills tumor cells by carrying drugs directly into the tumor and blocking the blood flow to the tumor. Everolimus 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. It is not yet known whether transarterial chemoembolization with doxorubicin is more effective when given alone or when given together with everolimus in treating patients with liver cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of everolimus when given together with transarterial chemoembolization with doxorubicin and to see how well it works compared with giving transarterial chemoembolization with doxorubicin alone in treating patients with liver cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the overall survival (OS) of oral linifanib given as monotherapy once daily (QD) compared to sorafenib given twice daily (BID) per standard of care in subjects with advanced or metastatic HCC.
This study is to determine the safety and efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and treatment drug in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
RATIONALE: Sorafenib tosylate and everolimus 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. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying giving sorafenib tosylate together with everolimus to see how well it works compared with sorafenib tosylate alone in treating patients with localized, unresectable, or metastatic liver cancer.
This is a single arm, open-label phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (XELOX) in the peri-operative treatment of patients with potentially resectable liver metastasis from colorectal cancer.
