PURPOSE: This multi-institutional phase II trial assessed the activity and toxicity of a new histone deacetylase inhibitor, vorinostat (suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid--SAHA) in patients with recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian or primary peritoneal carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Women with recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian or primary peritoneal carcinoma who were platinum-resistant/refractory (progression-free interval <12 months since platinum) were eligible for trial entry if they had measurable disease, a good performance status, and good overall organ function. Women were treated with a 400 mg daily oral dose of vorinostat and continued on treatment until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoints …

OBJECTIVE: Activation and dimerization of the ERBB family play a role in the pathogenesis and progression of ovarian cancer. We conducted a phase II trial to evaluate the activity and tolerability of lapatinib in patients with recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and to explore the clinical value of expression levels of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR), phosphorylated EGFR, HER-2/neu, and Ki-67, and the presence of EGFR mutations. METHODS: Eligible patients had recurrent or persistent EOC or primary peritoneal carcinoma, measurable disease, and up to 2 prior chemotherapy regimens for recurrent disease. Patients were treated with lapatinib 1500 mg/day. …
Phase Ii Trial Of Bevacizumab In Recurrent Or Persistent Endometrial Cancer: A Gynecologic Oncology Group Study, C. Aghajanian, M. Sill, K. Darcy, B. Greer, D. Mcmeekin, P. Rose, J. Rotmensch, M. Barnes, P. Hanjani, Kimberly Leslie

PURPOSE: Bevacizumab, a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), has clinical activity in multiple tumor types. We conducted a phase II trial to assess the activity and tolerability of single-agent bevacizumab in recurrent or persistent endometrial cancer (EMC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eligible patients had persistent or recurrent EMC after receiving one to two prior cytotoxic regimens, measurable disease, and Gynecologic Oncology Group performance status of
