MS 209 Plus Docetaxel in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Phase I Study to Determine the Safety of MS-209 in Combination With Docetaxel in Patients With a Solid Progressive Tumor

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of MS 209 plus docetaxel in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose of oral MS-209 when given with docetaxel IV in patients with advanced solid malignant tumors.
  • Assess the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation, multicenter study of MS-209.

Patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour on day 1 of a 3 week course. On day 1 of the 2nd course, patients receive MS-209 orally followed by docetaxel IV over 1 hour. Treatment is repeated every 3 weeks for 4-7 courses (including course with docetaxel alone). Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of MS-209 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which 2 of 3 or 3 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicities.

Patients are followed every 6 weeks.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 3-30 patients will be accrued for this study.
