Summary

DM-CHOC-PEN is a polychlorinated pyridine cholesteryl carbonate that has demonstrated antineoplastic activities in human xenograft intracerebrally implanted tumor mouse models, acceptable preclinical toxicities in mouse, rat and dog models; and no behavioral cognitive impairment/neurotoxicities were noted in mouse and rat models.

The drug is ready for human use as an soy bean oil/lecithin/glycerin water emulsion, the latter which has been documented - chemically and biologically to be stable and safe. Patients are currently being enrolled and treated with the protocol.

Patients with advanced cancer, with or without central nervous system involvement will be eligible for enrollment, providing the required blood and other eligibility requirements are met.
