- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of a single dose of intravenous recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α plus liposomal doxorubicin Up to 22 days MTD is the dose level below the one that produces 2 or more Dose-Limiting Toxicities
Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) of a single dose of intravenous recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α plus liposomal doxorubicin up to 22 days Toxicity Criteria will be those listed in NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0.
Any grade 3 cytokine release syndrome/acute infusion reaction or allergic and toxicity Grade 3 and above will be considered a DLT except:
* Grade 3 toxicities that recover to grade 1 or less within 48 hours after standard supportive treatment.
* Grade 4 neutropenia that recovers within 14 days.
* Grade 4 thrombocytopenia that recovers within 14 days.
* Grade 4 anemia that recovers within 14 days.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall tumor response using the international criteria proposed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) 4 weeks Caelyx/doxorubicin plasma levels 0, 24, 48 and 192 hours post-dose Caelyx/doxorubicin plasma levels will be measured at 0, 24, 48 and 192 hours post-dose by fluorimetry (excitation at 470nm, emission 590 nm) after liposomes have been disrupted in 70% ethanol, 0.3 N HCl
