Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors Clinical Trials Information presented on Clinical Trials Search is not designed to be a substitute for certified medical advice, trips or professional assistance with a real medical doctor. We aren't docs. Always confer with your doctor about Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website committed to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors Clinical research trials and Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors health trials happen in many of cities across the US. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally measure the effectualness of new does drugs. The intention of the studies / projects is to figure out particular human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to detect cures for all forms of circumstances, like Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors. Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow for volunteers to undergo medical treatment options before they are available to the general public. Most times the subjects get treatment for free of charge, and occasionally they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors clinical trial. Subjects frequently get the best healthcare possible for their Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors condition. Hazards are a reality, however, and could include more or frequent mD visits, health risks (possibly life-jeopardizing), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with exacting guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors



Bortezomib in Treating Children With Advanced Solid Tumors

For Condition: unspecified childhood solid tumor, protocol specific
Status: No longer recruiting
Sponsor(s): Children's Oncology Group , National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of bortezomib in treating children who have advanced solid tumors that have not responded to previous treatment.
Details: OBJECTIVES: - Determine the maximum tolerated dose of bortezomib in pediatric patients with refractory solid tumors. - Determine the dose-limiting toxicity and other toxic effects of this regimen in these patients. - Preliminarily determine the antitumor activity of this regimen in these patients. OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. Patients receive bortezomib IV on days 1, 4, 8, and 11. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of bortezomib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. If dose-limiting toxicity in the form of myelosuppression occurs in stratum I, dose escalation continues with patients meeting the qualifications for stratum II. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 24-36 patients will be accrued for this study.
