An Open-Label Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Atiprimod Treatment for Patients With Advanced Cancer
Phase 1
- Conditions
- Advanced Cancer
- Registration Number
- NCT00214838
- Lead Sponsor
- Callisto Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
The primary objectives of this study are to identify the maximum tolerated dose and to evaluate safety of atiprimod in patients with advanced cancer.
- Detailed Description
The primary objectives of this study are to identify the maximum tolerated dose(MTD) and to evaluate safety of atiprimod in patients with advanced cancer.
The secondary objectives of this study are 1) to measure the pharmacokinetics of atiprimod and 2) to evaluate the efficacy of atiprimod treatment in patients with advanced cancers and 3) to compare the pharmacokinetics of atiprimod tablets and capsules at the starting dose, with the intent of switching to capsules for the dose escalation if the capsules pose no safety issues.
Recruitment & Eligibility

- Target Recruitment
- 61
Inclusion Criteria
- histological proof of advanced cancer and must have failed or relapsed following standard therapy or have no standard therapy available.
- estimated life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
- must have evaluable disease.
- ECOG(Zubrod) PS of 0 to 2
