Study Of Abraxane® And Carboplatin As First-Line Treatment For Triple Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer
Terminated
Taxanes (such as paclitaxel) are highly active to treat breast cancer. Abraxane® (nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel) compared to standard paclitaxel improves efficacy and tolerability. When combined with a taxane, platinum agents improve response in metastatic breast cancer, with carboplatin conferring less toxicity than cisplatin. The investigators hypothesize that the combination of weekly Abraxane® and carboplatin will lengthen time to progression without producing intolerable toxicity.

Study of Sequential Topoisomerase, Irinotecan/Oxaliplatin - Etoposide /Carboplatin in Extensive Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)
Completed
The primary objective of Part I of the study is to determine tumor response rate of sequential topoisomerase targeting with irinotecan/oxaliplatin followed by etoposide /carboplatin in chemotherapy-naïve patients with extensive small cell lung cancer. The primary objective of Part II of the study is to determine the objective tumor response rate of irinotecan/oxaliplatin in patients with either refractory disease or who have relapsed to first line chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy.

A Study of Carboplatin, Cetuximab and RAD001 in Advanced Head and Neck Cancer
Completed
The purpose of this study is to test the drug RAD001 in combination with other chemotherapy drugs, Carboplatin and Cetuximab. Because RAD001 has not been used in this combination before, it is not clear which dose will be best when used in combination. The investigators will test the safety of RAD001 in combination with Carboplatin and Cetuximab and see what effects (good and/or bad) it has on your cancer, and find the highest dose of RAD001 that can be given without causing bad side effects.

Amifostine in Treating Patients With Stage II or Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Amifostine may be an effective treatment for the toxic side effects caused by radiation therapy and chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy and radiation therapy are more effective with or without amifostine for non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of amifostine in treating patients who have stage II or stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed and who are undergoing chemotherapy and...

Vorinostat, Carboplatin, and Paclitaxel in Treating Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Completed
This randomized phase II trial is studying carboplatin, paclitaxel, and vorinostat to see how well they work compared with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and a placebo in treating patients with stage III or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes... Read More
