Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition by veliparib during cytotoxic topotecan administration with filgrastim or pegfilgrastim neutrophil support in women with persistent or recurrent uterine cervix cancer.
Experimental Design: This phase I-II trial examined twice-daily oral veliparib (10 mg) given during once-daily intravenous topotecan (0.6 mg/m²) on days 1 to 5 of each treatment cycle.
Purpose: We conducted a phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of single-agent sorafenib in chemotherapy-naïve patients with metastatic or recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). The primary end point was response probability (ie, confirmed complete and partial response [PR]).
Patients And Methods: Chemotherapy-naïve patients with metastatic, persistent, or recurrent SCCHN who received one induction or fewer or received an adjuvant chemotherapy regimen, who had adequate organ function, and who had a performance status
Background: In preclinical models, the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (PS-341) inhibits the growth of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) by inhibiting the antiapoptotic Bcl-2 signaling pathway. We conducted a phase II trial of PS-341 in previously treated patients with platinum-sensitive and -refractory extensive stage SCLC to determine response rate, toxicity, and survival.
Methods: Patients with histologically confirmed SCLC, measurable disease, Zubrod performance status 0-1, and previous treatment with platinum-based therapy were enrolled.
