Polyglutamate Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in Treating Patients With Ovarian Epithelial, Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer
Completed
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of polyglutamate paclitaxel when given together with carboplatin in treating patients with ovarian epithelial, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as polyglutamate paclitaxel and carboplatin use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Polyglutamate paclitaxel may be able to deliver the drug directly to tumor cells while leaving normal cells undamaged. Combining po... Read More

High-Dose Chemotherapy Plus Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation Compared With Intermediate-Dose Chemotherapy Plus Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation With or Without Isotretinoin in Treating Young Patients With Recurrent High-Grade Gliomas
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, thiotepa, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. Isotretinoin may be effective in preventing recurrence of glioma. It is not yet known which regimen of chemotherapy plus autologous stem cell transplantation with or without... Read More

Panitumumab, Gemcitabine and Carboplatin in Triple-Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer
Completed
In this Phase II trial, the investigators will evaluate the combination of gemcitabine, carboplatin, and panitumumab in the treatment of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. In addition, to assess the efficacy of this combination, tumor tissue will be examined for the presence of various markers, including K-ras and PI3K-activating mutations, EGFR, PTEN, and p53. Correlation of tumor response with marker expression may define a patient subset that is particularly responsive to... Read More

Abraxane and RT for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
Withdrawn
For patients with stage III Lung Cancer, We propose one cycle chemotherapy using Abraxane and Carboplatin, followed by pulsed low-dose sensitizing Abraxane chemotherapy and daily Radiation. This will be followed by more hi-dose chemotherapy. We anticipate this regimen to target early distant microscopic spread by using one cycle of chemotherapy prior to radiation, and to achieve control of the disease in the lung by combining pulsed low-dose sensitizing Abraxane, with radiation.

Terminated
The purpose of this study is to assess how well this particular combination of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery works to help people with locally advanced lung cancer, how well PET scans indicates whether someone has responded to chemotherapy and radiation, and gene expression patterns related to outcomes in patients with locally advanced lung cancer who receive this treatment regimen.

Carboplatin as a Radiosensitizer in Treating Childhood Ependymoma
Terminated
This is a phase II study evaluating the feasibility of concurrent carboplatin given with focal radiation therapy in children age 12 months to \< 21 years with newly diagnosed localized ependymoma who have no or minimal residual disease post-operatively (\< 0.5 cm). The hypothesis is that utilizing carboplatin as a radiosensitizer is feasible and tolerable and may improve event-free survival (EFS) and minimize local recurrences as compared to historic controls. Following a neurosurgical resection... Read More
