Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of sodium selenite when administered in combination with radiation therapy to subjects with metastatic cancer based on safety and tolerability.
Detailed Description
Primary Objectives:
- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of sodium selenite when given in combination with palliative radiation therapy
- To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of sodium selenite and palliative radiation therapy in metastatic cancer
Secondary Objectives:
- To assess the pharmacokinetics of sodium selenite
- To evaluate the anti tumor activity of sodium selenite and palliative radiation therapy when given in combination

Arms & Interventions
Treatment (sodium selenite and radiation therapy)
Patients receive sodium selenite PO 2 hours before daily radiation therapy treatments. Treatment continues for the duration of the course of radiation therapy in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Intervention: radiation therapy (Radiation)
Treatment (sodium selenite and radiation therapy)
Patients receive sodium selenite PO 2 hours before daily radiation therapy treatments. Treatment continues for the duration of the course of radiation therapy in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Intervention: sodium selenite (Drug)

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Safety and tolerability of the combination using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria v4.0 grading system for adverse events
Time Frame: Up to 2 years
Safety observations and measurements including adverse events, laboratory data, vital signs, and performance status will be summarized.
MTD defined as the maximum dose at which =< 1 of 3 to 6 subjects in a dose group experience a drug-related dose-limiting toxicity, graded according to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version (v)4.0
Time Frame: 3 weeks
Secondary Outcomes
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile(Week 1, day 1: at predose; 15 minutes; and at 1, 2, 4, and 24 hours; weeks 2 and 4, day 1: at predose and 1 hour)
- Overall biochemical response rate(Up to 11 weeks)
- Tumor responses within the radiation therapy field, assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1(Up to 2 years)
- Response rate (complete response, partial response and stable disease) within the radiation therapy field(Up to 2 years)
