Pharmacokinetics of G3139 in Subjects With Advanced Melanoma, Including Those With Normal Hepatic Function and Those With Moderate Hepatic Impairment

November 4, 2011 updated by: Genta Incorporated

A Pharmacokinetic Study of Genasense® (Bcl-2 Antisense Oligonucleotide) in Combination With Dacarbazine (DTIC) in Subjects With Advanced Melanoma and Normal or Impaired Hepatic Function

This is an open-label, parallel-group study with a total of 16 evaluable subjects. Subjects will be assigned to 1 of the following cohorts: Cohorts I (subjects with normal hepatic function; n+8 and Cohort II (subjects with moderate hepatic impairment, Child-Pugh classification Grade B; n=8). If, for any reason, the Genasense infusion is interrupted or discontinued prior to completion or the rate of administration of the Genasense infusion is changed, the subject will be replaced.
