Study Overview

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation and carboplatin work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation together with carboplatin may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects, the best way to give, and the best dose of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation when given together with carboplatin in treating patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation given once weekly for 3 weeks when administered with carboplatin given once every 4 weeks.
  • Determine the MTD of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation given once every 3 weeks when administered with carboplatin given once every 3 weeks.
  • Determine the MTD of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation given in weeks 1 and 2 when administered with carboplatin given once every 3 weeks.
  • Evaluate sequence-dependent effects on toxicity and pharmacokinetics in the combination of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation and carboplatin.

Secondary

  • Explore the antitumor activity of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation given once weekly or once every 3 weeks.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Abraxane

Time Frame: 28 days

To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Abraxane weekly days 1, 8, 15 with a carboplatin dose of AUC=6 given on day 1 of a 28 day cycle

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Abraxane given with Carboplatin
