Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin Hydrochloride, Bevacizumab, and Temsirolimus in Treating Patients With Advanced Cancer

Trial Status: complete

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, bevacizumab, and temsirolimus when given together in treating patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells of by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, bevacizumab, and temsirolimus together may kill more cancer cells.
