4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This phase III trial studies cabozantinib to see how well it works compared with placebo in treating patients with neuroendocrine or carcinoid tumors that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Cabozantinib is a chemotherapy drug known as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and it targets specific tyrosine kinase receptors, that when blocked, may slow tumor growth.
This phase II trial studies how well ribociclib works in treating patients with neuroendocrine tumors of the foregut, which includes the thymus, lung, stomach, and pancreas, that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced tumors). Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ABI-009 will make advanced, malignant neuroendocrine tumor(s) of the lung, gastrointestinal tract and/or pancreas that cannot be removed by surgery smaller and slow the spread of your cancer in patients who have progressed or been intolerant to everolimus. All eligible participants will receive ABI-009, the study drug.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of cixutumumab when given together with everolimus and octreotide acetate in treating patients with advanced low- or intermediate-grade neuroendocrine cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, may find tumor cells and help carry tumor-killing substances to them. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Octreotide acetate may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of neuroendocrine cancer. Giving cixutumumab together with everolimus and octreotide acetate may be a better treatment for neuroendocrine cancer.
