Trial Information

Phase I Study of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in Patients With Refractory Hematologic Malignancies/Bone Marrow Disorders


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose limiting toxicity of
12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in patients with relapsed or refractory
hematologic malignancies or bone marrow disorders.

- Determine the pharmacokinetics of TPA in these patients.

- Determine the effects of TPA on the cellular composition of blood and bone marrow in
these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 8
followed by 2 weeks of rest. Courses repeat in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of TPA until the maximum tolerated dose
(MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which no more than 1 of 6 patients
experiences dose limiting toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 36 patients will be accrued for this study.
