NCT00005967

Brief Summary

Randomized phase I trial to study the effectiveness of tipifarnib in treating patients who have advanced hematologic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

Study Arms (1)

Arm I

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive oral tipifarnib twice daily for 21 days. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 1 course of therapy, patients may receive subsequent therapy at the maximum tolerated dose at the investigator's discretion.

Drug: tipifarnib
