Purpose
RATIONALE: Bortezomib may interfere with the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of bortezomib in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer.
| Condition | Intervention | Phase |

|
Colorectal Cancer |
Drug: bortezomib |
Phase 2 |
| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
| Official Title: | A Phase II Study Of PS-341 In Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer |
| Study Start Date: | January 2003 |
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the efficacy of bortezomib, in terms of response rate and stable disease rate, in patients with recurrent or metastatic colorectal cancer.
- Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.
- Determine the time to progression and response duration in patients treated with this drug.
- Determine whether there is a relationship between levels of transcription factors NF kappa B and HIF-1 alpha and clinical outcome in patients treated with this drug.
OUTLINE: This is an open-label study.
Patients receive bortezomib IV on days 1, 4, 8, and 11. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 21-41 patients will be accrued for this study within 2-4 months.
