Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of paclitaxel in treating older patients who have solid tumors.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine whether there is a relationship between pharmacokinetic measurements of paclitaxel and aging.
* Determine whether there is a relationship between the toxic effects of paclitaxel and aging.

OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to age (cohort 1: patients 55 to 64 vs cohort 2: patients 65 to 75 vs cohort 3: patients 75 and over).

Paclitaxel

Patients receive a single dose of IV paclitaxel over 3 hours. Additional cycles of paclitaxel will be given at the discretion of the physician.

Patients are followed for second malignancies, disease progression, and survival.
