Full Title
A Phase I, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of Iso-Fludelone in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of iso-fludelone that can be given safely to patients with advanced solid tumors that have progressed despite standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists. Iso-fludelone belongs to the epothilone family of drugs. It works by attaching to proteins in cancer cells called tubulins, which cancer cells need to grow. Laboratory studies have shown that iso-fludelone slowed or stopped cancer cells from growing.
