Study Of Lapatinib In Combination With Paclitaxel In The Treatment Of Newly Diagnosed Inflammatory Breast Cancer
Completed
This Study was designed to determine how effective and safe a new investigational drug, lapatinib, is in combination with paclitaxel in treating patients with newly diagnosed inflammatory breast cancer. Tumor tissue collected pre-treatment, following 14 days of treatment and at the time of surgical resection will be examined for pathologic response and biologic activity by IHC (immunohistochemistry) within the tumor. Treatment will consist of 14 days of lapatinib monotherapy followed by 12 weeks... Read More

S0800, Nab-Paclitaxel, Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, and Pegfilgrastim With or Without Bevacizumab in Treating Women With Inflammatory or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Colony-stimulating factors, such as pegfilgrastim, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as... Read More

Four Versus Six Cycles of Cyclophosphamide/Doxorubicin or Paclitaxel in Adjuvant Breast Cancer
Completed
This randomized phase III trial studies cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin hydrochloride compared with paclitaxel as adjuvant therapy in treating breast cancer in women with 0-3 positive axillary lymph nodes. Giving additional cancer treatment after surgery may help to lower the risk that the cancer will come back (adjuvant therapy). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by k... Read More

Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, and Bevacizumab With or Without Everolimus in Treating Patients With Metastatic Malignant Melanoma
Completed
This randomized phase II trial is studying how well carboplatin, paclitaxel, and bevacizumab work when given with or without everolimus in treating patients with malignant melanoma that has spread from where it started to other places in the body. 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.

Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, and Everolimus in Treating Patients With Previously Untreated Cancer of Unknown Primary
Completed
RATIONALE: 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. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Sutent + Taxol for Advanced Esophageal Cancer
Completed
Paclitaxel is known to be active as a single and combination agent in esophageal cancer, and has also been demonstrated to have anti-angiogenic properties in weekly dosing regimens. Sunitinib malate is an anti-angiogenic drug with the potential to improve responses when combined with chemotherapy, as demonstrated with other regimens in similar settings. We believe that the combination of paclitaxel and sunitinib malate offer great promise in the treatment of advanced esophageal cancer.
