This is an Early Study to Investigate the Effect of Gimatecan® in Adults With Solid Tumor

June 2, 2009 updated by: Sigma-Tau Research, Inc.

Phase I Study of Oral ST1481 Administered Once Weekly Every 3 Out 4 Weeks in Patients With Advanced Solid Malignancies.

Gimatecan® is sigma-tau Research's new, potent, oral Topoisomerase I inhibitor. Drugs in this class play a crucial role in destroying DNA replication in tumors. We are conducting this study to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose of our compound, when given as a capsule, rather than by intravenous injection.
