ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer Clinical Trials Facts presented on Clinical Trials Search is not designed to be a substitute for certified medical advice, travels to or treatment with a real dr.. We aren't doctors. Always consult your mD on ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer Clinical research trials and ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer medical trials occur in many of places across the U.S.A.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the effectiveness of new does drugs. The role of the studies / undertakings is to figure out certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to locate treatments for all forms of circumstances, including ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer. ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer Clinical Trials and other clinical trials permit volunteers to get medical treatment options before they are available to the masses. Most times the human subjects acquire treatment for free of charge, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer clinical trial. Participants oftentimes recieve the finest healthcare available for their ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer condition. Dangers are a reality, nonetheless, and might include extra or frequent physician calls, health hazards (potentially life-endangering), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer



ZD 1839 in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

For Condition: peritoneal cavity cancer,recurrent ovarian epithelial cancer
Status: Suspended
Sponsor(s): National Cancer Institute (NCI) , Gynecologic Oncology Group
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as ZD 1839 may interfere with the growth of the tumor cells and may slow the growth of ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ZD 1839 in treating patients who have recurrent or persistent ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
Details: OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the antitumor cytostatic activity, in terms of 6-month progression-free survival, of ZD 1839 in patients with persistent or recurrent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal carcinoma. II. Determine the nature and degree of toxicity in patients treated with this drug. III. Determine the partial and complete response rates in patients treated with this drug. IV. Determine the duration of progression-free and overall survival in patients treated with this drug. PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive oral ZD 1839 once daily. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 22-60 patients will be accrued for this study within 1-2 years.
