Filter by:The purpose of this phase II trial is to determine the feasibility and efficacy of nimotuzumab combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for initially inoperable locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well acceptance and commitment therapy works in improving well-being in patients with stage III-IV cancer and their partners. Learning how to accept negative thoughts and feelings and how to live in the present without worrying about the future or past may improve coping skills in patients with stage III-IV cancer and their partners.
This pilot trial studies how well nanoparticle albumin-bound rapamycin works in treating patients with cancer that as has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced cancer) and that has an abnormality in a protein called mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR). Patients with this mutation are identified by genetic testing. Patients then receive nanoparticle albumin-bound rapamycin, which may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the mTOR enzyme, which is needed for cell growth and multiplication. Using treatments that target a patient's specific mutation may be a more effective treatment than the standard of care treatment.
To evaluate the tolerability and safety of axalimogene filolisbac 1 x 10^10 colony forming units (cfu) administered with prophylactic premedication in repeating 3-dose study cycles in women with persistent, metastatic, or recurrent squamous and non-squamous carcinoma, adenosquamous, or adenocarcinoma of the cervix. To evaluate tumor response and progression-free survival (PFS) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and immune-related Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (irRECIST).
This trial studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in predictive treatment response in patients with stage IB-IVA cervical cancer. MRI is a procedure in which radio waves and a powerful magnet linked to a computer are used to create detailed pictures of areas inside the body. PET is a procedure in which a small amount of radioactive glucose (sugar) is injected into a vein, and a scanner is used to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where the glucose is taken up. Comparing results of diagnostic procedures, such as MRI and PET, done before, during and after radiation and chemotherapy may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.
This randomized clinical trial studies the Family Caregiver Palliative Care Intervention in supporting caregivers of patients with stage II-IV gastrointestinal, gynecologic, urologic and lung cancers. Education and telephone counseling may reduce stress and improve the well-being and quality of life of caregivers of cancer patients.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well cisplatin and radiation therapy with or without triapine work in treating patients with previously untreated stage IB-IVA cervical cancer or stage II-IVA vaginal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x rays to kill tumor cells. Triapine may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. It is not yet known whether cisplatin and radiation therapy is more effective when given with or without triapine in treating cervical or vaginal cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well eribulin mesylate works in treating patients with advanced or recurrent cervical cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as eribulin mesylate, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing
This clinical trial studies colposcopy and high resolution anoscopy in screening for anal dysplasia in patients with cervical, vaginal, or vulvar dysplasia or cancer. Screening may help doctors find cancer cells early and plan better treatment for cancer
This phase II clinical trial is studying the how well veliparib, topotecan hydrochloride, and filgrastim or pegfilgrastim work in treating patients with persistent or recurrent cervical cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by blocking them from dividing. Giving veliparib with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. Filgrastim or pegfilgrastim may cause the body to make more blood cells and help it recover from the side effects of chemotherapy.
