Advanced Malignant Solid Tumors
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of concomitant ramucirumab on the pharmacokinetics of docetaxel in participants with advanced malignant solid tumors. Participants who do not complete both Cycle 1, Day 1, and Cycle 2, Day 1 according to schedule will be replaced for the purpose of analysis; these participants may continue to receive study therapy. No dose reductions, delayed or missed doses are allowed during Cycles 1 and 2.
Interventions
ramucirumab 10 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) intravenous infusion, administered on Day 1 of 3-week cycle
docetaxel 75 milligrams/square meter (mg/m\^2) intravenous infusion administered on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle
