Further study details as provided by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To determine the maximum tolerated dose and the dose limiting toxicity of weekly Taxotere patients treated with PTK787. [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To estimate the preliminary efficacy of this combination in both metastatic breast cancer patients and refractory gynecological patients. [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 24
Study Start Date: September 2005
Estimated Study Completion Date: January 2010
Primary Completion Date: January 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Drug: Docetaxel
    Lead In: Given intravenously on Day 1 and Day 14 Afer Lead in: Given intravenously on day 1, 8, 15, 22 of each 28-day cycle. Participant can continue receiving study drug as long as disease does not progress.
    Drug: PTK787
    Lead In: Given orally on day 4 and day 14 After Lead In: Given orally once a day. Participants may continue receiving study drug as long as their disease does not worsen
Detailed Description:
  • Patients will come to the clinic once a week to receive study treatment. To help reduce the chance of an allergic reaction patients will take Decadron tablets orally the night before, the morning of and the evening of receiving chemotherapy.
  • The lead-in schedule of dosing is as follows: Day 1: Taxotere intravenously; Day 4: PTK787 orally; Day 14: Taxotere and PTK787.
  • After the lead-in schedule, a cycle will consist of 28 days. PTK787 will be given orally once a day without interruption. Taxotere will be given on Day 1, Day 8, Day 15 and Day 22.
  • Before each dose of Taxotere, blood tests, urine tests, and a physical exam will be done. A radiological evaluation will be done every two months. If the patients tumor remains stable or shrinks in size, they may continue to stay on the study.
  • Patients should not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice during this study.
