Bortezomib, Fluorouracil, and Leucovorin in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Stomach Cancer

NCT00103103 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2010-10-13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil and leucovorin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bortezomib together with fluorouracil and leucovorin may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bortezomib together with fluorouracil and leucovorin works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable stomach cancer.
