Proteomic Profiling in Predicting Response in Patients Receiving Erlotinib for Stage IIIB, Stage IV, or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue, blood, and urine in the laboratory from patients receiving erlotinib may help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: The phase II trial is studying proteomic profiling to see how well it predicts response in patients receiving erlotinib for stage IIIB, stage IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.

Abraxane, Avastin, and Gemcitabine as First-Line Therapy for Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer
Completed
The investigators hypothesize that the combination of Gemzar®, Abraxane® and Avastin will increase the progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with first line metastatic breast cancer and in patients who received neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy present with definable metastatic disease, 6 or more months after primary treatment.

Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Patients With Metastatic, Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer
Terminated
The purpose of this study is to look at the clinical benefit of carboplatin and paclitaxel and correlate response to study treatment with biologic parameters (i.e. lab studies of blood, urine, or tissue). It is hoped that this will allow researchers to gain insight into the underlying biology of prostate tumor progression and perhaps predict which patients may benefit from this chemotherapy regimen.

Neoadjuvant Doxorubicin, Polyglutamate Paclitaxel, Capecitabine and Metronomic Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer
Withdrawn
The investigators propose to conduct a clinical trial of neoadjuvant treatment utilizing chemotherapy formulations with favorable toxicity profiles: weekly doxorubicin, PPX and capecitabine. It is expected this combination will at least maintain the efficacy of a traditional chemotherapy regimen but will be associated with less toxicity, particularly nausea, vomiting and alopecia. In order to accomplish this the investigators have designed a chemotherapy regimen whose components (or administrati... Read More

Paclitaxel Poliglumex and Estradiol in Treating Patients With Stage IV Prostate Cancer
Terminated
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel poliglumex, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Estradiol may kill prostate cancer cells that no longer respond to hormone therapy. Giving paclitaxel poliglumex together with estradiol may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving paclitaxel poliglumex together with estradiol works in treating patients with stage IV... Read More

Trial of ABI-007 in Previously Treated Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
Completed
This trial will treat patients previously treated for advanced (metastatic) melanoma (skin cancer) with a new chemotherapeutic medicine. The new chemotherapy will be administered weekly in cycles of three weekly doses followed by one week rest. A minimum of three cycles of therapy will be given to determine the anti-tumor response of the new chemotherapy. Patients may continue to stay on therapy a maximum of 9-12 cycles if treatment shows continuing benefit.

N-acetylcysteine Given IV With Cisplatin and Paclitaxel in Patients With Ovarian Cancer

RATIONAL FOR STUDYING IV NAC AS POTENTIAL CHEMOPROTECTANT: Cisplatin has shown efficacy in the treatment of subjects with epithelial ovarian cancer. Systemic toxicities associated with cisplatin include nephro, oto, and nerve toxicities. It may be possible to reduce the toxicities of cisplatin by administering it in conjunction with IV NAC. NAC may reduce cisplatin related nephro, oto, and nerve toxicities without compromising the effectiveness of the chemotherapy against the ovarian cancer cel... Read More
