Paclitaxel and Carboplatin With Or Without Sorafenib In The First-Line Treatment Of Patients With Ovarian Cancer
Completed
This trial will compare the efficacy and toxicity of standard first-line chemotherapy alone vs. standard chemotherapy plus sorafenib in patients with stage III/IV ovarian cancer following cytoreductive surgery. Patients with residual large volume disease and/or bowel involvement will be excluded, to minimize the risk of bowel perforation.

Trial of Paclitaxel/Bevacizumab +/- Everolimus for Patients With HER2-Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer
Completed
This randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial will evaluate the impact of adding everolimus to the combination of weekly paclitaxel plus bevacizumab in the first-line treatment of women with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to receive either paclitaxel/bevacizumab/everolimus (Treatment Arm 1) or paclitaxel/ bevacizumab/placebo (Treatment Arm 2). Patients will be evaluated for response to treatment every 8 weeks; responding and/or stable patients... Read More

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.

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...

Phase I Abraxane Weekly and Three Weekly Schedule With Vandetanib
Completed
This study uses the drugs Abraxane (also called ABI-007) and Vandetanib (also called Zactima and ZD6474). Abraxane has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for the treatment of breast cancer. Vandetanib is an experimental drug and has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of any condition. Vandetanib has shrunk some non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer and thyroid cancer in some studies in humans. This combination of drugs is not approved for the treatment of... Read More

Phase II Neoadjuvant in Inflammatory Breast Cancer
Terminated
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn how well lapatinib taken alone, followed by taking lapatinib with paclitaxel, and then taking lapatinib with 5-fluorouracil, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FEC75) works to help to control Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC). The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

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
