Summary

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

paclitaxel poliglumex, pemetrexed

The first 6 eligible patients will be enrolled at a dose of 135 mg/m2 paclitaxel poliglumex in combination with 500 mg/m2 of pemetrexed. Patients who experience disease progression without dose-limiting adverse events after the initial cycle will be replaced. Dose escalation to the next dose level can occur provided that no more than 1 of 6 patients experience in initial dose limiting toxicity (IDLT) following 2 cycles of therapy. If ≥ 2 of 6 patients experience IDLTs at the 135 mg/m2 dose, the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) was surpassed and the study will be discontinued
