简要总结
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of irinotecan in treating children with refractory or advanced solid tumors who are receiving anticonvulsants.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of irinotecan in children with refractory or advanced solid tumors receiving anticonvulsants.
- Determine the dose-limiting toxicity of irinotecan in this patient population.
- Evaluate the pharmacokinetic behavior of this treatment regimen in these patients.
- Determine, preliminarily, the antitumor activity of this treatment regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to type of concurrent anticonvulsant (enzyme activating anticonvulsants vs valproic acid vs other anticonvulsants).
Patients receive irinotecan IV over 1 hour daily for 5 days. Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of irinotecan until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
