Brief summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of AMT2003 in cancer patients with advanced disease. The primary evaluation criterion is clinical benefit response.
Detailed description
The study will include patients with a variety of solid tumors (i.e. esophageal, colon, pancreatic, bronchial, gastric, hepatocellular, gall bladder, prostate and gynaecological carcinomas.) The clinical benefit response - CBR, is an end point that provides a clinical measure for symptom improvement in patients. The key evaluation parameters for CBR will be assessment of pain, the ability to perform daily activities and weight change.
