Brief summary
An open-label dose escalation study of patients with solid tumors treated with STA-9090 (ganetespib)
Detailed description
This is an open-label Phase 1 dose-escalation study in patients with solid tumors treated with STA-9090 (ganetespib) to evaluate for safety, tolerance and efficacy.
Interventions
This is a dose-escalation study. The first cohort will consist of three patients who will receive 2 mg/m2 of STA 9090 (ganetespib) during a 1-hour infusion 2 times per week (e.g., \[Monday, Thursday\] or \[Tuesday, Friday\]) for three consecutive weeks followed by a 1 week dose-free interval. Subsequent cohorts will receive 4, 7, 10, 14, 19, 25, 33, 40 and 48 mg/m2 provided that the previous dose was well tolerated during cycle 1 (week 1 - 4). Further dose increments will be approximately 20% over the previous dose level, until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined.
