XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma Clinical Trials Resources presented on Clinical Trials Search isn't meant to be a substitute for qualified health advice, visits or professional assistance with a real medical. We aren't doctors. Always consult your mD about XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma Clinical research trials and XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma health trials occur in a lot of of places throughout the United States of America. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials typically assess the effectivity of new does drugs. The role of the studies / projects is to resolve certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to detect remedies for all varieties of circumstances, such as XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma. XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to obtain health treatment choices before they are available to the general public. Most times the human subjects recieve professional assistance for free of charge, and every now and again they are paid for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma clinical trial. Human subjects frequently get the finest healthcare available for their XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma condition. Risks are a reality, however, and may include extra or frequent physician visits, medical dangers (possibly life-threatening), and/or the treatment being uneffective. Trials are federally governed with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

XK469 in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma
For Condition: Leukemia,small intestine cancer,adult solid tumor,Lymphoma
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): University of Chicago Cancer Research Center , National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of XK469 in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors or lymphoma.
Details: OBJECTIVES: - Determine the maximum tolerated dose, recommended phase II dose, and dose-limiting toxicity of XK469 in two different dosing schedules in patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas. - Determine the safety of this drug in these patients. - Determine the tolerance to this drug in these patients. - Determine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of this drug in these patients. - Determine the presence of genetic variations that may affect metabolism and disposition of this drug in these patients. - Determine, preliminarily, any antineoplastic activity of this drug in these patients. OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. - Patients receive XK469 IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 3, and 5. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of XK469 until the recommended phase II dose or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Once the MTD is determined, additional patients are accrued and treated at the recommended phase II dose (for a maximum of 20 patients treated at that dose). - Once the recommended phase II dose is determined on schedule A, additional patients are accrued and receive escalating doses of XK469 IV over 30 minutes on day 1, beginning at a reduced dose. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Dose escalation continues as in schedule A. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 60 patients will be accrued for this study within 4-18.5 months.
