Everolimus, Carboplatin, and Etoposide in Treating Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer or Other Advanced Solid Tumors
Lead Sponsor:
University of California, Davis

Novartis
Conditions:
Lung Cancer
Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific
Eligibility:
All Genders
18+ years
Phase:
PHASE1
Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin...
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES: Primary * Determine the safety and feasibility of everolimus combined with carboplatin and etoposide in patients with advanced solid tumors, with emphasis on small cell lung cancer (SCLC...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion

- Must be chemotherapy naive
- Measurable or evaluable disease

- No uncontrolled brain or leptomeningeal metastases (including those requiring glucocorticoids)
- PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
- Zubrod performance status 0-2
- Life expectancy \> 3 months
- Granulocyte count ≥ 1,500/mm\^3

- Not pregnant or nursing
- Fertile patients must use effective contraception
- No oral, implantable, or injectable contraceptives
- No impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of everolimus (e.g., ulcerative disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection)
- No active, bleeding diathesis
- No known hypersensitivity to everolimus or other rapamycins (e.g., sirolimus, temsirolimus) or to its excipients
- Must be able to take and retain oral medication
- No peripheral neuropathy \> grade 1 as per NCI CTCAE vs. 3 NOTE: \*In case one or both of these thresholds are exceeded, the patient can only be included after initiation of appropriate lipid-lowering medication.
- PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
- See Disease Characteristics
