Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

Monotherapy treatment with CS-7017 to assess progression-free-survival (PFS) of subjects who achieved an objective response of Disease Control on first line therapy with Folinic acid (leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU), Oxaliplatin (Eloxatin) known as FOLFOX; or Folinic acid (leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU), irinotecan (Camptosar) known as FOLFIRI.

This study plans to learn more about an investigational drug called OSI-906. OSI-906 is being looked at to see if it could be a treatment for advanced cancer. "The FDA is the U.S. government agency that reviews the results of research of drugs and decides if it can be sold in the U.S. OSI-906 has been given to over 185 people with cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and time to progression of HLA-A*2402 restricted epitope peptides RNF43, TOMM34, VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 emulsified with Montanide ISA 51 in combination with Tegafur/Uracil/Folinate chemotherapy.

This phase II study will evaluate the efficacy of the combination of two monoclonal antibodies (Avastin + Erbitux) with irinotecan, in patients with colorectal cancer progressed after 1st line treatment with FOLFIRI Avastin or XELIRI Avastin.

Open-label phase 1b trial. Study treatment will be administered in 3 week cycles. There are two distinct parts in this study: Part 1: Dose escalation from IMO-2055 Part 2: Once a recommended phase 2 dose is found additional tolerability and pharmacodynamics will be explored

Primary objective: To assess the effect of xaliproden hydrochloride (xaliproden) 1 mg per oral daily on the rate of complete resolution of peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN) at 6 months, following randomization, after the completion of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer. Secondary objective: To assess the effect of xaliproden on patient-reported outcomes using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group-Neurotoxicity scale (FACT/GOG NTX-12 subscale). To assess the effect of xaliproden on the rate of at least partial recovery of grade > 2 PSN at 6 months To assess the effects of xaliproden on the time to complete recovery from PSN To evaluate the safety profile of xaliproden

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of short-duration pre-operative FOLFOX based therapy on postoperative problems after liver surgery for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Cetuximab may also stop the growth of colorectal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving cetuximab together with capecitabine may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving cetuximab together with capecitabine work in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if adding brivanib to irinotecan can help control the disease in patients with colorectal cancer that has spread. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

The purpose of this study is to compare OnDose® based pharmacokinetic administration of 5-FU versus standard Body Surface Area (BSA) based administration of 5-FU in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer treated with mFOLFOX6, with or without bevacizumab, to determine if the use of OnDose® achieves an improvement in the Overall Response Rate (ORR) relative to BSA dosing response.
