Etoposide and Cisplatin or Carboplatin as First-Line Chemotherapy With or Without Pravastatin in Treating Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, cisplatin, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Pravastatin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by making tumor cells more sensitive to chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether etoposide and cisplatin or carboplatin are more effective with or without pravastatin in treating small c... Read More

ToGA Study - A Study of Herceptin (Trastuzumab) in Combination With Chemotherapy Compared With Chemotherapy Alone in Patients With HER2-Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer
Completed
This parallel, randomized, open-label, multi-centre study will evaluate the effect on overall survival of trastuzumab (Herceptin) in combination with a chemotherapy compared to the chemotherapy alone in patients with HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer. Trastuzumab (Herceptin) will be administered as intravenous infusion of 6 mg/kg (loading dose 8 mg/kg) every 3 weeks. The chemotherapy consists of a combination of 6 cycles of fluorouracil (800 mg/m2/day intravenous infusion every 3 weeks) and... Read More

Cediranib Versus Placebo Plus Cisplatin/Gemcitabine Chemotherapy for Patients With Advanced Biliary Tract Cancers
Completed
As a result of our previous NCRN study (ABC-02) cisplatin and gemcitabine (CisGem) is likely to become the international standard of care for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (submitted: ASCO 2009). This study, ABC-03, will determine whether the addition of cediranib(an oral Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor inhibitor) to CisGem will improve the time to disease progression in this patient group.

Erbitux in Combination With Xeloda and Cisplatin in Advanced Esophago-gastric Cancer
Completed
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that addition of cetuximab to 1st-line treatment with capecitabine (Xeloda, X) and cisplatin (P) \[XP\] chemotherapy regimen has a clinically relevant benefit for subjects with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma including gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma, in terms of progression free survival (PFS). Secondary objectives are to assess cetuximab plus XP versus XP alone with respect to overall survival, overall tumor response, qualit... Read More

Radiation Therapy Plus Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Children With Medulloblastoma
Unknown
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving radiation therapy in different ways with combination chemotherapy may kill any remaining tumor cells following surgery. It is not yet known which radiation therapy regimen combined with combination chemotherapy is more effective in treating medulloblastoma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare di...

Intensive Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Treating Young Patients Undergoing Surgical Resection for High-Risk Hepatoblastoma
Unknown
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving chemotherapy drugs before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well neoadjuvant chemotherapy works in treating young patients who are undergoing surgical resection for high-risk hepatoblastoma.

Surgery With or Without Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Stomach Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. It is not known whether receiving chemotherapy before surgery may be more effective than surgery alone in treating patients with stomach cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of surgery plus combination chemotherapy with surgery alone in treating patients with stomach cancer.
