Study of Temsirolimus, Topotecan, and Bortezomib
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, October 2008
Sponsored by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Information provided by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00770731
  Purpose

Primary objective:

-To determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTDs) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of combination treatment with bortezomib, temsirolimus, and topotecan.

Secondary objectives:

  • Preliminary descriptive assessment of anti-tumor efficacy.
  • Assessment of biological and anti-angiogenesis correlates.
