- Registration Number
- NCT00070096
- Lead Sponsor
- Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic germ cell tumors that are refractory to cisplatin.
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
* Determine the efficacy of ixabepilone in patients with metastatic cisplatin-refractory germ cell tumors.
* Determine the safety of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients receive ixabepilone IV over 3 hours on day 1. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 10-29 patients will be accrued for this study within 1.3-4 years.
