Temsirolimus and Bevacizumab in Treating Patients with Advanced Endometrial, Ovarian, Liver, Carcinoid, or Islet Cell Cancer
Rochester, MN; Jacksonville, FL; Scottsdale/Phoenix, AZ
This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus and bevacizumab work in treating patients with advanced endometrial, ovarian, liver, carcinoid, or islet cell cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving temsirolimus together with bevacizumab may ...
