Brief Title
Carboxyamidotriazole in Treating Patients With Refractory or Recurrent Ovarian Epithelial, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer
Official Title
A Phase II Trial of Orally Administered CAI for Patients With Persistent or Refractory Epithelial Ovarian Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer
Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of carboxyamidotriazole in treating patients with refractory or recurrent ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES: - Determine the clinical outcome in patients with ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer treated with carboxyamidotriazole. OUTLINE: Patients receive oral carboxyamidotriazole daily beginning on day 1. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 19-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.
