NCT00321594

Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of belinostat and to see how well it works in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Belinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLT) and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Belinostat in Patients With Inoperable HCC (Phase I)

    DLT is defined as any grade 4 hematological toxicity and any grade 3 or 4 non hematological toxicity during cycle 1, excluding alopecia. Specifically, grade 3 nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea that does not respond to therapy is considered dose-limiting. Also, delays in treatment greater than 2 weeks are also dose-limiting. MTD is defined as the dose below which \>= 2 of 3 or \>= 2 of 6 patients experience DLT. Graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0.

    Course 1

  • Tumor Response in Patients With Inoperable HCC Using Belinostat (Phase II)

    Evaluated in this study using the new international criteria proposed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee. The 95% confidence intervals should be provided.

    Every 2 courses (approximately 6 weeks)

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (enzyme inhibitor therapy)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive belinostat IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Drug: belinostat

Interventions

Given IV

Also known as: PXD101
Treatment (enzyme inhibitor therapy)
