This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the effectiveness of an investigational combination of drugs to learn whether the combination of drugs works in treating a specific cancer. "Investigational" means that the combination of drugs is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it-such as the safest dose to use, the side effects it may cause, and if the combination of drus is effective for treating different types of cancer. It also means the FDA has not yet approved this combination of drugs for your type of cancer.
