Paclitaxel Treatment Options in Los Angeles, CA

This phase II randomized trial is for patients with clinical stage II-III, ER and PR \<10%, HER2-negative invasive breast carcinoma (triple negative breast cancer) for whom adjuvant RT is planned and pre-operative RT is deemed feasible by the treating radiation oncologist. Subjects will be randomized into arm A or B and treatment will last for 16 weeks. Both groups will receive Durvalumab 750mg IV Q2 weeks x 2 then a biopsy prior to durvalumab 1500mg IV Q4 weeks x 3 with paclitaxel and carboplatin IV weekly x 12. Arm B will receive radiation (24 Gy total) starting with the second durvalumab dose every other day (8Gy per fraction) for one week. Following treatment, subjects will receive SOC breast surgery and continue on to physician's choices SOC treatment during the 3 year follow up period. This study hopes to explore the impact of checkpoint blockade administration with a non- anthracycline chemotherapy regimen plus RT on post-surgery pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in the breast and axilla (ypT0/Tis ypN0) following 12 weeks of treatment and surgery.

The reason for this study is to compare the efficacy of abemaciclib, in combination with fulvestrant, to that of physician's choice of chemotherapy in women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer that has spread to internal organs. Your participation in this trial could last up to 31 months, depending on your cancer type and how you and your tumor respond. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial studies bevacizumab and intravenous (given into a vein) chemotherapy to see how well they work compared with bevacizumab and intraperitoneal (given into the abdominal cavity) chemotherapy in treating patients with stage II-III ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether giving bevacizumab together with intravenous chemotherapy is more effective than giving bevacizumab together with intraperitoneal chemotherapy in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer.

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind study will estimate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ipatasertib combined with paclitaxel compared with placebo combined with paclitaxel in participants with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), as measured by progression-free survival (PFS) in all participants and in participants with phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-low tumors.
