thalidomide and Cancer of Eye

thalidomide has been researched along with Cancer of Eye in 3 studies

Thalidomide: A piperidinyl isoindole originally introduced as a non-barbiturate hypnotic, but withdrawn from the market due to teratogenic effects. It has been reintroduced and used for a number of immunological and inflammatory disorders. Thalidomide displays immunosuppressive and anti-angiogenic activity. It inhibits release of TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR-ALPHA from monocytes, and modulates other cytokine action.
thalidomide : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of R- and S-thalidomide.
2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione : A dicarboximide that is isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is substituted by a 2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl group.

Trial Outcomes

Complete Response

Analysis of the Primary Endpoint: The complete responses will be estimated by the number of patients with CR divided by the total number of evaluable patients. (NCT01723839)
Timeframe: 28 day cycle, up to 4 cycles

InterventionPercentage of Participants (Number)
FCR With Lenalidomide45

Overall Response Rate

Analysis of the other Secondary Endpoints: The overall response rate will be estimated by the number of patients with complete and partial responses divided by the total number of evaluable patients. (NCT01723839)
Timeframe: 28 day cycle, up to 6 cycles

InterventionPercentage of Participants (Number)
FCR With Lenalidomide95
