- Conditions
- Bladder CancerTransitional Cell Cancer of the Renal Pelvis and UreterUrethral Cancer
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT00014144
- Lead Sponsor
- SWOG Cancer Research Network
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as ZD 1839 may interfere with the growth of the tumor cells and slow the growth of cancer of the urinary tract.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ZD 1839 in treating patients who have advanced cancer of the urinary tract.
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
* Determine the 6-month progression-free survival rate of patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium treated with ZD 1839.
* Determine the overall survival and response (confirmed complete and partial response) in these patients treated with this regimen.
* Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
* Evaluate the changes in growth factor protein kinase expression before and after treatment and at the time of disease progression in these patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: Patients receive oral ZD 1839 once daily. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 2 years.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 30-55 patients will be accrued for this study.
