NCT00324480

Brief Summary

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with alvocidib in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and alvocidib, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving vorinostat together with alvocidib may kill more tumor cells.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Maximum tolerated dose of vorinostat when administered in combination with a fixed dose of weekly flavopiridol

    Defined as the dose one level below the dose at which two or more of the patients in the initial cohort experience dose limiting toxicities (DLT) during the first treatment course. Graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 Term.

    Course 1

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Clinical pharmacokinetics of vorinostat (SAHA)

    Week 1 of course 1

  • Therapeutic activity of SAHA and flavopiridol

    Not Provided

  • Expression of p21, p53, and apoptotic markers relative to treatment response

    Baseline to 2 weeks after completion of study treatment

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (chemotherapy, enzyme inhibitor)

EXPERIMENTAL

Before beginning course 1 of study therapy, patients receive oral SAHA on days 1-3 in order to ensure tolerability of the drug. Beginning 1 week later, patients receive oral SAHA once daily on days 1-3 and 8-10 and fixed-dose alvocidib IV over 1 hour on days 2 and 9. Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
