Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die
PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of R115777 in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES
Determine the maximum tolerated dose of R115777 in patients with advanced malignant solid tumors Assess the toxicity of this drug in these patients Determine preliminarily the efficacy of this drug in these patients Determine the potential predictors of response in patients treated with drug
OUTLINE This is a multicenter dose-escalation study
Patients receive oral R115777 twice daily on weeks 1 and 3 Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of R115777 until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A minimum of 20 patients will be accrued for this study within 12 months
