Clinical Trials Howard S. Hochster is currently running
Chemotherapy + Bevacizumab
for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
This study is to evaluate the disease control rate and time to progression of the sequential combination of oxaliplatin with an alternative anti-metabolite Trifluridine/tipiracil hydrochloride mixture, TAS-102,(TAS-OX) as well as irinotecan in combination with TAS-102 oxaliplatin(TAS-OX) + Bevacizumab in late-line metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC)
Recruiting1 award Phase 2
Metabolic Pathway Analysis
for Pancreatic Cancer
This clinical trial investigates the nutrients pancreatic cancers depend on in which to survive and the processes these tumors use (metabolism) to obtain these nutrients. Giving U-13C-glucose during surgery may allow doctors to trace the metabolic activity of pancreatic cancer in research experiments done in the laboratory. These experiments may help researchers understand how cancer cells manage their nutrients when compared to normal pancreatic cells.
