Summary

This is a Phase I continuous infusion study designed to explore if constant concentration over time adds to the effectiveness of terameprocol without increasing toxicity. It will also explore weekly dosing as an option.

Tumor response assessments will be performed following every two (2) cycles of therapy. All subjects will undergo a follow-up visit 30 days following their last dose of terameprocol. Circulating tumor cells (CTC) will be quantified pre dosing and on day 15 after first dose of each cycle. Needle biopsy specimens will be taken prior to therapy and one week after first dose, if possible, to assess for tumor markers (cdc-2 and survivin). Tumor markers, for example prostate specific antigen (PSA) will also be measured on day 15 of each cycle (if elevated on study entry). Pharmacokinetic parameters will be derived from analysis of blood samples collected during the first 24 hour infusion.
