Gemcitabine, Docetaxel, and Filgrastim in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Persistent Leiomyosarcoma or Soft Tissue Sarcoma
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Ovarian Cancer, Sarcoma, Small Intestine Cancer
In brief
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine, docetaxel, and filgrastim in treating patients who have recurrent or persistent leiomyosarcoma or soft tissue sarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery.
