Paclitaxel Treatment Options in Maryland

The purpose of part 1 of this study is to determine the objective response rate (ORR) in stage IV NSCLC subjects treated with nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab as first line therapy. The purpose of part 2 of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of nivolumab and ipilimumab combined with a short course of chemotherapy in first line stage IV NSCLC. Read Less

This is a prospective, single arm, open label, multicenter interventional study designed to evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with anti-HER2 antibodies in patients with HER2-negative invasive breast cancer who have abnormal HER2 signaling activity determined by the Celcuity CELx HER2 Signaling Function (HSF) testing.

This is a Phase III, global, double-blind, 2-arm randomized study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab versus placebo + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab. Study participants will have Stage 3 or 4 ovarian cancer (OC), fallopian tube cancer (FTC), or primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) with macroscopic residual disease postoperatively (i.e., after primary tumor reductive surgery) or who will undergo neoadjuvant therapy followed by interval surgery.

The purpose of this study is to show that Nivolumab will improve progression free survival in subjects with strongly Stage IV or Recurrent PD-L1+ non-small cell lung cancer when compared to chemotherapy Read Less

The purpose of this phase 3, randomized, multicenter study is to compare VB-111 and paclitaxel to placebo and paclitaxel in adult patients with Recurrent Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial studies how well giving cisplatin and radiation therapy together with or without carboplatin and paclitaxel works in treating patients with cervical cancer has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, carboplatin, and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of \[cancer/tumor\] cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. External radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays to kill tumor cells. Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether giving cisplatin and external and internal radiation therapy together with carboplatin and paclitaxel kills more tumor cells. Read Less

This randomized phase II trial studies how well fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, and oxaliplatin (combination chemotherapy) works and compares to gemcitabine hydrochloride and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation before surgery in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, oxaliplatin, gemcitabine hydrochloride, and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, 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. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective than gemcitabine hydrochloride and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation before surgery in treating pancreatic cancer.

This randomized phase III trial studies the side effects and how well different chemotherapy regimens with or without bevacizumab work in treating patients with stage IIIC or stage IV breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation (nab-paclitaxel), and ixabepilone, 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. Bevacizumab may block tumor growth by targeting certain cells and slowing the growth of blood vessels to the tumor. It is not yet known which treatment regimen is more effective in treating patients with breast cancer. Read Less

CX-839-007 is an open-label Phase 2 study of the combination of CB-839 with paclitaxel in participants of African ancestry and non-African ancestry with advanced triple negative breast cancer. Multiple single-arm cohorts will be enrolled in which 800 mg twice daily (BID) CB-839 will be administered in combination with the full approved dose of paclitaxel. Read Less

A Phase 2, multi-center, open-label study of cinrebafusp alfa (PRS-343) in combination with ramucirumab and paclitaxel in patients with HER2-high and in combination with tucatanib in patients with HER2-low gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma. Read Less

Background: LMB-100 is a man-made protein. It is attracted to the mesothelin protein. This is found in many tumors, including mesothelioma. But it is found in only a very small number of normal tissues. After binding to mesothelin on tumors, LMB-100 attacks and kills cancer cells. Researchers want to test LMB-100 in people with advanced mesothelioma. Objective: To find a safe dose and anti-tumor activity of LMB-100 for people with advanced mesothelioma. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with: Advanced pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma that has not responded to platinum-based therapy Adequate organ function Design: Participants will be screened with: Samples of tumor tissue or tumor fluid. These can be new or from a previous procedure. Medical history Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests Chest x-rays Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) scans Participants will get LMB-100 on days 1, 3, and 5 of each 21-day cycle. It will be given through an intravenous (IV) catheter, a tube inserted in an arm vein. They will get standard medicines before each infusion to help prevent side effects. Each infusion lasts about 30 minutes. They will be monitored for up to 2 hours after. During each cycle, participants will repeat the screening tests. Participants will get the study drug for up to 4 cycles or until their disease worsens or they have intolerable side effects. About 4-6 weeks after their last infusion, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will repeat the study tests. Participants will have follow-up scans every 6 weeks until their disease gets worse. Participants will be called about once a year to see how they are doing. Read Less

The purpose of this clinical trial is to find out whether or not the combination of NOV-002 with chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) is better at improving overall survival time when compared to chemotherapy alone in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Earlier clinical trials in NSCLC showed that patients treated with NOV-002 in combination with chemotherapy had a better response (their tumors got smaller in one United States Phase 1/2 trial) than patients who received chemotherapy alone; and in two Phase 2 trials done in Russian patients, at the end of one year, patients treated with NOV-002 with chemotherapy had a better survival rate than patients who did not receive NOV-002 with their chemotherapy.
