- +1 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
ME-344
EXPERIMENTALME-344 IV, 10 mg/kg on Days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of each 28 day cycle Topotecan IV, 4 mg/m2 on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28 day cycle
Interventions
Part 1: ME-344 IV at 10 mg/kg on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each 28-day cycle. Part 2: ME-344 IV at the dose defined in Part 1 on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each 28 day cycle. Patients will be allowed to continue receiving ME-344 infusions weekly according to the assigned dose level as long as there is clinical benefit to the patient as assessed by the Investigator.
Part 1: Topotecan 4 mg/m2 i.v. weekly on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle. Part 2: Topotecan 4 mg/m2 i.v. weekly on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:

- Patients with ovarian and small cell lung cancer must have failed initial therapy
- Patients with carcinoma of the cervix must have advanced disease not amenable to curative surgery and/or radiation therapy
- Patients may not have received more than 4 prior regimens of therapy
- Patients may not previously have received irinotecan, topotecan or other topoisomerase I inhibitor
- ECOG Performance status 0-1 (Appendix B)
- A minimum life expectancy of 12 weeks

- Patients with uncontrolled infection or systemic disease
- Patients with clinically significant cardiac disease not well controlled with medication (e.g., congestive heart failure, symptomatic coronary artery disease e.g. angina, and cardiac arrhythmias) or myocardial infarction within the last 12 months
- Patients who have toxicity from last prior therapy that has not recovered to at least Grade 1, with the exception of Grade 2 alopecia
- Patients who have had any chemotherapy regimens, biologic, or targeted therapies within the 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1
- Patients with any neuropathy \> Grade 1
- Patients with known hypersensitivity to any components of ME-344 or topotecan study drug product
- Patients with known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Hepatitis B or C (active, previously treated or both)
- Patients with a history of solid organ transplantation
- Patients with presence of concurrent or active malignant disease (other than disease under study) within the last 12 months with the exception of adequately treated in-situ carcinomas, basal or squamous cell carcinoma, or non-melanomatous skin cancer.
- Patients with any psychiatric disorder or social or geographic situation that would preclude study participation
