Histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI) can inhibit many kinds of hematological tumors by inhibiting HDAC activity and other ways, showing good anti-tumor activity. Chidamide is a new chemical structure benzamide HDAC inhibitor developed independently in China. It has the selectivity of HDAC subtypes
This is an open-label, single arm, proof of concept-study of the HDAC-inhibitor vorinostat in patients with refractory uterine sarcoma that have been pre-tested for an high expression of HDAC. Patients will receive Vorinostat, 400 mg (4 capsules á 100mg of Zolinza) orally once daily for the first 14
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To demonstrate an improvement in progression free survival (PFS) at four months in patients with relapsed sensitive or refractory small cell lung cancer (SCLC) receiving ABT-888 (veliparib) and temozolomide compared to placebo and temozolomide.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I.
Study rationale/purpose
Pazopanib is a potent, multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor44 of VEGFR-1, -2, -3, PDGFR-α and -β and c-kit approved for metastatic renal cell carcinoma based on phase III data showing a significant prolongation of progression-free survival (PFS) (5 mos in pretreated
Background:
Trabectedin (ET-743) is a natural product derived from the marine tunicate Ecteinascidia turbinata. It binds to the minor groove of DNA and interacts with various transcription factors resulting in cell cycle arrest. It also inhibits transcription coupled nucleotide excision repair
Relapsed or progressive solid tumors and leukemias have a very poor prognosis in children despite intense multimodal treatment protocols involving polychemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. Therefore, innovative treatment strategies targeting specific molecular mechanisms are urgently required. A
Background:
During recent years, the cancer-testis (CT) antigens have emerged as attractive targets for cancer immunotherapy. Whereas lung and esophageal cancers, as well as malignant pleural mesotheliomas express a variety of CT antigens, immune responses to these antigens appear uncommon in
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a heterogeneous group of benign and malignant tumors of various supportive tissues arising from the mesoderm. There are 56 known subtypes classified by the tissue of origin. Soft tissue sarcomas account for 1% of all human malignancies. These tumors share a common
Despite surgical excision and radiation therapy, approximately 50% of patients treated for localised STS will experience local or distant relapse.
Recurrent STS : current therapeutic strategies Although some patients may be salvaged with surgery, chemotherapy using doxorubicin-based regimens is in
Adjuvant chemotherapy for high grade soft tissue sarcomas is controversial. Given the fact that approximately 50% of patients receiving optimum treatment will recur in three years and die of recurrence within five years, smarter adjuvant options are needed. One such treatment option would be to
Background:
In preclinical studies we have demonstrated that the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor Depsipeptide FR901228 (DP) mediates cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cultured lung and esophageal cancer, and malignant pleural mesothelioma cells.
We have observed that the cdk inhibitor
