Measure
Arm I: Pralatrexate and Docetaxel
Patients receive pralatrexate IV over 3-5 minutes and docetaxel IV on day 1. Courses repeat every 14 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. pralatrexate: IVP(intravenous push)over 3-5 minutes on day 1 at a dose of 120 mg/m2. docetaxel: Given Intravenous Piggyback (IVPB)as one-hour infusion at a dose of 3 mg/m2 on day 1 of a cycle. cycle defined as 14 days. fludeoxyglucose F 18: Correlative studies positron emission tomography: Correlative studies

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Approximately three years

Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Approximately three years

Population: 2 patients not evaluable for response applying the PERCIST criteria per PET

Radiological assessment of tumor response was performed by computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) every four cycles of therapy and responses were measured according to RECIST and PERCIST criteria.
