Filter by:RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. This may be an effective treatment for extensive stage small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is comparing how well radiation therapy to the brain works when given with or without radiation therapy to other areas of the body in treating patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer.
This is an open-label, multicenter study with a phase 1 dose escalation portion and a 2-stage, phase 2 portion, investigating MLN8237 in patients with advanced nonhematological malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to examine the correlation between UGT1A1 genotypes and the safety of CPT-11 plus platinum analogues (cisplatin, carboplatin and nedaplatin) regimens for patients with lung cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and gastric cancer.
Non-interventional, open-label, single group, multicentric post-marketing surveillance to monitor the safety and effectiveness of Topotecan administered in Korean patients according to the prescribing information
Part A: This study evaluates an experimental treatment in participants with extensive-disease in small-cell lung cancer. Part B: This study evaluates an experimental treatment in participants with extensive-disease in small-cell lung cancer.
The registry is an international, multicenter, observational registry of newly diagnosed patients with SCLC. Data will be entered into an electronic CRF (eCRF) via Internet access. Treatment plan remains the responsibility of the patient's physician and data collected in this registry will reflect a "real world" approach of the diagnosis and treatment of patients with SCLC. Approximately 60 centres in 13 countries will take part in this registry. It is expected that about 500 patients will be recruited during a period of 6 to 9 months according to the feasibility.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well bendamustine works as second- or third-line therapy in treating patients with relapsed or refractory small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether NK012 is safe and effective in the treatment of relapsed small cell lung cancer.
Despite the fact that a substantial response rate may be obtained in small-cell lung cancers (using double-drug chemotherapy: cisplatin-etoposide, PE), a cure remains an exception. More aggressive regimens remain controversial and recent attempts at increasing dose-intensity have been restricted to patients with a more favourable presentation. Bevacizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody which binds to VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor). In association with double-drug standard chemotherapies, it has been proven that bevacizumab can improve survival of previously untreated advanced non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC), compared to chemotherapy without bevacizumab). Such promising effects on NSCLC deserve to be tested on small-cell lung cancers. In this trial (IFCT-0802), standard chemotherapy (PCDE or PE) will be compared to experimental treatment (PCDE or PE + bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg) for previously untreated SCLC patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BMS-833923 administered in combination with carboplatin and etoposide followed by BMS-833923 alone in subjects with extensive-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC).
