Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of the combination of Abraxane (nab-paclitaxel), Gemzar (gemcitabine), and Avastin (bevacizumab) that can be given to patients with advanced cancer. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Gemcitabine, Nab-Paclitaxel and Bevacizumab
- timeFrame
- With each 28 day cycle
- description
- A MTD is defined as the dose level below the dose at which 2 of 6 patients experience drug-related dose limiting toxicity (DLT) in the first cycle. DLT defined as any grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic toxicity as defined in the NCI CTC v4.0, even if expected and believed related to study medications (except nausea and vomiting responsive to appropriate regimens or alopecia), any Grade 4 hematologic toxicity lasting 2 weeks or longer (as defined by the NCI-CTCAE), despite supportive care; any Grade 4 nausea or vomiting \> 5 days despite maximum anti-nausea regimens, and any other Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity including symptoms/signs of vascular leak or cytokine release syndrome; or any severe or life-threatening complication or abnormality not defined in the NCI-CTCAE v.4.0 that is attributable to therapy.
