Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of belinostat 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.\n\nPHASE II: Patients receive belinostat (as in phase I) at the MTD determined in phase I.\n\nAfter completion of study therapy, patients are followed for up to 8 weeks.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Histologically or cytologically confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma that is not amenable to curative resection\n* Measurable disease, defined as ≥ 1 lesion that can be accurately measured in ≥ 1 dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as ≥ 20 mm with conventional techniques OR as ≥ 10 mm with MRI or spiral CT scan\n* No known brain metastases\n* No clinical ascites or encephalopathy\n* Life expectancy \\> 12 weeks\n* ECOG performance status (PS) 0-2 or Karnofsky PS 60-100%\n* WBC ≥ 3,000/mm³\n* Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1,500/mm³\n* Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm³\n* Bilirubin ≤ 1.7 mg/dL\n* Albumin ≥ 2.8 mg/dL\n* ALT ≤ 5.0 times upper limit of normal (ULN)\n* Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 6 times ULN\n* Prothrombin time ≤ 4 sec above ULN\n* Creatinine ≤ 1.6 mg/dL\n* Not pregnant or nursing\n* Negative pregnancy test\n* Fertile patients use effective contraception\n* No Child's-Pugh's grading Class C hepatic impairment\n* No history of allergic reaction attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to PXD101\n* No marked baseline prolongation of QT/QTc interval, including the following:\n\n * Repeated demonstration of a QTc interval \\> 500 msec\n * Long QT Syndrome\n* No ongoing or active infection\n* No significant cardiovascular disease, including any of the following:\n\n * Unstable angina pectoris\n * Uncontrolled hypertension\n * Congestive heart failure related to primary cardiac disease\n * Condition requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy\n * Ischemic or severe valvular heart disease\n * Myocardial infarction within the past 6 months\n* No psychiatric illness or social situation that would preclude study compliance\n* No other uncontrolled illness\n* More than 4 weeks since prior chemotherapy (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) and recovered\n* More than 4 weeks since prior radiotherapy and recovered\n* At least 2 weeks since prior valproic acid\n* No concurrent combination antiretroviral therapy for HIV-positive patients\n* No concurrent participation in another investigational study\n* No other concurrent investigational agents\n* No other concurrent anticancer therapy\n* No concurrent use of any of the following:\n\n * Disopyramide\n * Dofetilide\n * Ibutilide\n * Procainamide\n * Quinidine\n * Sotalol\n * Bepridil\n * Amiodarone\n * Arsenic trioxide\n * Cisapride\n * Calcium channel blockers (e.g., lidoflazine)\n * Clarithromycin\n * Erythromycin\n * Halofantrine\n * Pentamidine\n * Sparfloxacin\n * Domperidone\n * Droperidol\n * Chlorpromazine\n * Haloperidol\n * Mesoridazine\n * Thioridazine\n * Pimozide\n * Methadone"}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00321594', 'briefTitle': 'Belinostat in Treating Patients With Liver Cancer That Cannot Be Removed By Surgery', 'nctIdAliases': ['NCT01251445'], 'organization': {'class': 'NIH', 'fullName': 'National Cancer Institute (NCI)'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Phase I/II Study of PXD101 in Patients With Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Evaluation', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'NCI-2009-00141'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'CTRG-HC06/21/05'}, {'id': 'N01CM62205', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/N01CM62205', 'type': 'NIH'}, {'id': 'CDR0000463519', 'type': 'REGISTRY', 'domain': 'PDQ (Physician Data Query)'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Treatment (enzyme inhibitor therapy)', 'description': 'Patients receive belinostat IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5.
