Summary

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate how patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal cancer and papillary serous or clear cell mullerian tumors respond to consolidation therapy with Avastin and erlotinib or Avastin alone over 1 year. These drugs have been used in the treatment of other types of cancers and information from those studies suggests that these agents may help to treat the cancers studied here.
