A Phase II Study Of Perifosine In Patients With Recurrent Or Metastatic Head And Neck Cancer
OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the antitumor activity of perifosine in patients with recurrent or metastatic
squamous cell head and neck cancer.
II. Determine the time to progression and overall survival of patients treated with this
drug.
III. Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients. IV. Determine the
pharmacodynamics of this drug in these patients. V. Assess the usefulness of biomarkers in
predicting response and other outcome parameters in patients treated with this drug.
VI. Assess the quality of life of patients treated with this drug.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive oral perifosine 4 times daily on days 1 and 2 and once daily on days 3-28
during course 1. Patients receive oral perifosine once daily on days 1-28 for all subsequent
courses. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline, weekly during the first month, every 28 days after
the first month, and then at study withdrawal.
Patients are followed every 3 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 22-46 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.
