A Study of 5 Fluorouracil and the Anti-Tumor Activity of ADH300004 and 5 Fluorouracil in Subjects With Incurable Solid Tumors

Phase 1
Suspended
Conditions
Neoplasms
Registration Number
NCT00264472
Lead Sponsor
Adherex Technologies, Inc.
Brief Summary

5 fluorouracil (5 FU), one of the most actively investigated anti-cancer drugs, is rapidly inactivated by the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). ADH300004 blocks DPD. This study will test the safety and effects of oral ADH300004 14 hours prior to oral 5 FU in subjects with refractory solid tumors.
