Dose-finding and Pharmacokinetic Study of DpC, Administered Orally to Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

A Phase 1 Dose-finding and Pharmacokinetic Study of DpC, Administered Orally to Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation and pharmacokinetic study.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Neoplasms
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: DpC

Detailed Description

Multicenter, open-label, phase 1 study of DpC administered orally to patients with advanced solid tumors. The study will be conducted in two parts. In the first phase successive cohorts of patients (3+3) will receive escalating doses of DpC until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached. MTD is based on tolerability observed during the first 28 days of treatment. The second part of the study involves treatment of expansion cohorts (10-15 patients each) in specific indications to confirm the tolerability of treatment at the recommended phase 2 dose and schedule and evaluate evidence of anti-tumor activity.

• hemoglobin at least 9 g/dL;
• ferritin at least 50 ug/L;
• ECHO shows ejection fraction at least 50% and no evidence of cardiac dysfunction;
• creatinine clearance >50 mL/min (Cockcroft & Gault formula);
• AST/ALT no more than 3 x ULN (5 x ULN if liver or bone involvement);
• serum albumin at least 28 g/L;
• INR no more than 1.5 x ULN;
• At least 3 weeks since chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, r other anticancer therapy or surgical intervention or at least 3 half-lie for monoclonal antibodies;

• History of atrial fibrillation or evidence of atrial enlargement on baseline ECHO;
• History of hemoglobinopathy;
• Current use of iron chelation therapy;
• Other serious illness or medial condition;
