DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors Clinical Trials Facts presented on Clinical Trials Search isn't designed to be a substitute for proven healthcare advice, calls or treatment using a real mD. We aren't mDs. Always confer with your physician on DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors Clinical research trials and DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors healthcare trials happen in a lot of of localities across 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 generally measure the potency of new drugs. The aim of the studies / undertakings is to answer particular human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to discover remedies for all kinds of circumstances, such as DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors. DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to get healthcare treatment alternatives before they are available to the general public. Most times the participants receive treatment for without cost, and occasionally they are paid for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors clinical trial. Human subjects often receive the most effective healthcare possible for their DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors condition. Risks are a reality, nonetheless, and may include more or frequent dr. calls, healthcare hazards (perhaps life-threatening), and/or the treatment being ineffective. Trials are federally governed with rigorous guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors



DJ-927 and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

For Condition: unspecified adult solid tumor, protocol specific
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): Daiichi Pharmaceuticals ,
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as DJ-927 and capecitabine, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining DJ-927 with capecitabine in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastaticsolid tumors.
Details: OBJECTIVES: Primary - Determine the maximum tolerated dose of DJ-927 and capecitabine in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. - Determine the dose-limiting and non-dose-limiting toxic effects of this regimen in these patients. Secondary - Determine the toxicity profile of this regimen in these patients. - Determine the possible pharmacokinetic interactions of this regimen in these patients. - Determine the antitumor activity of this regimen in these patients. OUTLINE: This is an open-label, dose-escalation, nonrandomized, multicenter study. - Course 1: Patients receive oral DJ-927 once on day 1 and oral capecitabine once on days 0 and 1 and twice daily on days 2-14. - Course 2: Patients receive DJ-927 as in course 1 and oral capecitabine twice daily on days 2-15. - Course 3 and all subsequent courses: Patients receive DJ-927 as in course 1 and oral capecitabine twice daily on days 1-14. All courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of DJ-927 and capecitabine until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. A minimum of 6 patients receive treatment at the MTD. Patients are followed every 3 months. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 30-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 18 months.
