Overview

Brief Summary

Open-label, multicentre, dose-escalation Phase I/II study to evaluate safety, efficacy, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics of the combination of PXD101 with doxorubicin administered q 3 weeks in patients with advanced solid tumours. Once the Maximum Tolerable Dose has been established, up to a total of 20-40 patients with Soft Tissue Sarcoma may be enrolled at the MTD dose level to examine efficacy and safety in this specific patient population. The trial is stopped if no more than 2 responses are seen among the first 20 of these patients.
