Trial Information

Phase 1 Trial of Oral Karenitecin® in Patients With Solid Tumors"


Initially, the safety, side effects and recommended phase 2 dose of oral Karenitecin in
patients with advanced solid tumors will be determined.

When the recommended phase 2 dose has been determined, the specified dose will be used to
determine if Karenitecin is effective in the treatment of patients with relapsed or
refractory non-small cell lung cancer.
