Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific
Registration Number
NCT00006372
Lead Sponsor
Case Comprehensive Cancer Center
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the pharmacokinetic profile of gemcitabine, doxorubicin HCl liposome, and vinorelbine in patients with advanced solid tumors.

* Determine the maximum tolerated dose of this regimen in these patients.

* Determine the toxicity profile of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study.

Patients receive doxorubicin HCl liposome IV over 1-2.5 hours on day 1, gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8, and vinorelbine IV over 6-10 minutes on days 1 and 15. Treatment continues every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of doxorubicin HCl liposome, gemcitabine, and vinorelbine until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months for up to 1 year.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 9-24 patients will be accrued for this study within 12-18 months.
