NCT01217411
This randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of RO4929097 (gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097) when given together with whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery and to see how well it works compared to whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery alone in treating patients with breast cancer or other cancers (such as lung cancer or melanoma) that have spread to the brain. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Whole-brain radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays deliver radiation to the entire brain to treat tumors that can and cannot be seen. Stereotactic radiosurgery may be able to deliver x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. It is not yet known whether giving RO4929097 together with whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery may kill more tumor cells.
NCT02054741
This cluster randomized clinical trial compares a geriatric assessment intervention with usual care for reducing cancer treatment toxicity in older patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body. A geriatric assessment may identify risk factors for cancer treatment toxicity and may improve outcomes for older patients with advanced cancer.
NCT02822365
This pilot study tests the pocket phantom tool in improving the accuracy of quantitative positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging of patients with solid tumors. The pocket phantom tool may help test the accuracy of the PET/CT scanner and indicate whether adjustments need to be made to get consistent information.
NCT01654965
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of tivantinib and topotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Tivantinib and topotecan hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT00499135
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best way to give sunitinib malate in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic kidney cancer or other advanced solid tumors. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor and by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT00608361
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of dasatinib in treating patients with solid tumors or lymphomas that are metastatic or cannot be removed by surgery. Dasatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT01131234
This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 and cediranib maleate together in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate also may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
NCT01218620
This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of RO4929097 in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
