Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
This clinical study is being conducted at multiple sites to determine the activity, safety, and tolerability of XL999 when given weekly to patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). XL999 is a small molecule inhibitor of multiple kinases including VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, FLT-3, and Src, which are involved in tumor cell growth, formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), and metastasis.
Interventions
• The Study Treatment Period, in which subjects received a once-weekly, 4-hour intravenous (IV) infusion of XL999 at 2.4 mg/kg as outpatients for 8 weeks. Treatment was to be stopped at the occurrence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
