Phase II Study of Intravenous and Intraperitoneal Paclitaxel and Oral Nilotinib for Peritoneal Carcinomatosis From Colorectal, Appendiceal, Small Bowel, Gastric, Cholangiocarcinoma, Breast, Ovarian, or Other Gynecologic Primary Cancer
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Paclitaxel, Nilotinib, and 4 other interventions for Gynecologic Cancer and 11 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary
Background: Tumors that have spread to the lining of the abdomen from other cancers, such as cancer of the appendix, colon, or ovary, are called peritoneal carcinomatosis. In most cases, outcomes are poor. Researchers want to test a new treatment. Objective: To learn if the combination of oral nilotinib plus paclitaxel given by intravenous (IV) and directly into the abdomen can reduce tumors enough for people to have surgery. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with peritoneal carcinomatosis that is too widespread for surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical history Blood and urine tests Electrocardiogram Laparoscopy. They will get general anesthesia. Small cuts will be made in their abdomen. Tissue and fluid samples will be taken. Surveys about their health Computed tomography (CT) scans of their torso Participants will have up to 4 more laparoscopies. During the first procedure, a port will be placed under the skin of their abdomen (an intraperitoneal (IP) port). It will be attached to a catheter that is placed in their abdomen. Participants will get treatment in 3-week cycles, for 3 or 6 cycles. They will take nilotinib by mouth twice daily. They will get paclitaxel by IP port (once per cycle) and by IV (twice per cycle). After cycles 3 and 6, they will have a laparoscopy and CT scans. Then they may take nilotinib and get IV paclitaxel for up to 1 year. At study visits, participants will repeat some screening tests. About 6 weeks after treatment ends and then every 3 months for 3 years, participants will have follow-up visits at National Institutes of Health (NIH) or with their local doctor.

Timeline
Arms & Interventions
Intraperitoneal (IP) and intravenous (IV) paclitaxel administration with oral nilotinib.
Interventions
Paclitaxel: Intraperitoneal (IP) paclitaxel will be dosed at 60 mg/m\^2 to be infused over 1 hour on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle; participants with unresectable, but stable or responding disease after C1 through C3 will dose increase IP paclitaxel to 80 mg/m2 for Cycles 4-6. Intravenous (IV) paclitaxel will be infused over 1 hour on Day 2 of the first week of Cycle 1, followed by Day 1 of the subsequent treatment weeks; IV paclitaxel will be dosed at 60 mg/m2 for Week 1 of Cycle 1 and, if tolerated, at 80 mg/m2 for subsequent treatments.
Oral nilotinib will be dosed at 300 mg twice daily. Nilotinib will be administered continually from the loading dose (Day -4) leading up to laparoscopy #2 onward.
Screening, Week -1, Cycle 1 and 4 Day 1 (±3 days at start of cycle), Cycle 2 and 5 Day 1 (±3 days at start of cycle), Cycle 3 and 6 Day 1 (±3 days at start of cycle) and 4-8 Weeks post-therapy (±2 weeks).
Screening, Cycle 3 and 6 Day 1, Week 6, and every 3 months (± 2 weeks) for up to 3 years total.
Screening, Day 0, Week -1, and Cycle 3 and 6, Week 3.
Screening (intra-op), Week -1, Day 0 (intra-op), and on treatment (± 1 day), Cycle 3 and 6, Week 3 (intra-op). Biopsy only done if deemed eligible per laparoscopy (only performed during laparoscopy).
