Filter by:RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of CT-2103 in treating patients who have recurrent ovarian epithelial or fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of intraperitoneal interleukin-12 in treating patients who have ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer. Interleukin-12 may kill tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor and by stimulating a person's white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Giving interleukin-12 directly into the peritoneal cavity may kill cancer cells
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining two or more drugs may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of different regimens of ZD9331 with or without topotecan in treating patients who have refractory or recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
RATIONALE: Some tumors need growth factors produced by the body's white blood cells to keep growing. Goserelin may interfere with the growth factor and may stop the tumor from growing. Bicalutamide may prevent androgens from stimulating the growth of cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of goserelin plus bicalutamide in treating patients who have refractory or recurrent cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube, or peritoneum.
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 or combining chemotherapy with surgery may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and surgery in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer.
RATIONALE: Immunotoxins can locate tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Immunotoxin therapy may be an effective treatment for advanced cancer. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of immunotoxins in treating patients who have advanced cancer.
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining bryostatin 1 and cisplatin in treating patients who have advanced recurrent or residual ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. 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.
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: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining oxaliplatin with topotecan in treating patients who have previously treated ovarian epithelial, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.
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: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining liposomal doxorubicin and carboplatin in treating patients who have recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
SU5416, a novel antiangiogenesis agent, has been shown to be a potent and selective inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase activity of FlK-1 (a downstream effector of VEGF) in vitro and to inhibit the growth of endothelial cells. Since VEGF mRNA levels and vessel counts in tumor tissues have been shown to be inversely related to prognosis in ovarian cancer, SU5416 may prove to be a useful agent in this disease. Platinum agents currently provide the most effective treatment for ovarian cancer. However, ovarian cancer often becomes refractory to platinum therapy, leaving the patient with a poor prognosis. This is a phase I study designed to: a) determine a dose level of carboplatin to use in combination with an established dose of SU5416 for treatment of patients with platinum-refractory ovarian cancer, b) assess the side effect profile of SU5416 and carboplatin combination therapy, c) characterize any alterations in SU5416 pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters when given in combination with carboplatin, d) characterize carboplatin pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters when given in combination with SU5416, e) do exploratory studies to assess the effect of SU5416 on platinum-DNA adduct levels, f) do exploratory studies to assess any alterations in ERCC1 mRNA levels when carboplatin is administered with SU5416, and g) obtain preliminary evidence of the ability of SU5416 to reverse platinum resistance in patients with platinum-refractory ovarian carcinoma.
