As a leading cause of death around the world, the mobility and mortality of CRC also increase in china with aging. Currently, distant organ metastasis, most commonly appearing in liver, diminishes the life expectancy in more than 50% of CRC patients. Surgical resection of the tumor primaries and
Given the possible synergism with irinotecan and bevacizumab for colorectal carcinomas, the combination has been studied in gliomas. In a study of 21 patients, the combination of irinotecan and bevacizumab produced a 43% response rate, with acceptable toxicity. The response rate is significantly
The Study Drugs:
Irinotecan is designed to stop cancer cells from making new DNA (the genetic material of cells). This may cause cancer cells to die.
Bevacizumab is designed to prevent or slow down the growth of cancer cells by blocking the growth of blood vessels that supply nutrients necessary for
Yttrium microspheres are designed to treat cancer that has metastasized to the liver by giving radiation directly to the tumor. SIR-spheres are designed to deliver radiation directly to the tumor. This radiation kills the tumor cells.
Cetuximab is a drug that blocks epidermal growth factor receptor
This is a phase II study of the combination of Gliadel followed by Avastin and irinotecan in grade IV malignant glioma patients. The study will have survival and toxicity endpoints. Subjects will be identified by the investigator as those patients who have histologically documented grade IV
Objectives of study are to determine activity of combo of Irinotecan + Temozolomide & to further characterize any toxicity associated w combo of Irinotecan + Temozolomide. Temozolomide administered orally at 200mg/m2 in fasting state 1hr prior to CPT-11 infusion. Temozolomide administered on day 1
Objectives : The objectives of this study are to assess the feasibility, to determine the maximum tolerated dose, and to assess the toxicities of intraperitoneally administered CPT-11 in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal seeding.
Methods : This is open-labeled, non-randomized phase I study in
Stage IV disease represented approximately 25% of all colorectal cancer (CRC) cases. The mainstay treatment for stage IV CRC is chemotherapy and surgery is only for palliation of symptoms including colorectal bleeding and obstruction. If patients with stage IV CRC were not treated, the average
Ovarian cancer is diagnosed in approximately 26,000 American women each year, and is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancers. Difficult to detect, the disease typically presents only when advanced. Ovarian cancer is among the most sensitive of solid tumors to chemotherapy. However, the
