Brief Summary: Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of combining SU5416 and irinotecan in treating patients who have advanced colorectal cancer SU5416 may stop the growth of colorectal cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES
I Determine the maximum tolerated dose MTD and dose-limiting toxicity of SU5416 in combination with irinotecan in patients with advanced colorectal cancer
II Determine time to disease progression objective response rate and survival time in these patients receiving this regimen at the MTD
III Evaluate the safety and tolerance of this regimen in these patients
OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study of SU5416
Patients receive irinotecan IV over 90 minutes on day 1 of weeks 1-4 and SU5416 IV over 60 minutes on days 1 and 4 of weeks 1-6 Treatment continues every 6 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of SU5416 until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity Once the MTD is determined additional patients are accrued to receive treatment with SU5416 and irinotecan at the recommended phase II dose
