Suberoylanilide Hydroxamic Acid, Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, and Oxaliplatin in Treating Patients With Progressive Metastatic or Unresectable Colorectal Cancer or Other Solid Tumors

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Recurrent Colon Cancer, Recurrent Rectal Cancer, Stage III Colon Cancer, Stage III Rectal Cancer, Stage IV Colon Cancer, Stage IV Rectal Cancer, Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific

In brief

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid when given together with fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin in treating patients with progressive metastatic or unresectable colorectal cancer or solid tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid, fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.
