A Phase I, Sequential Cohort, Dose Escalation Trial to Determine the Safety, Tolerability, and MTD of GRN163L in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Solid Tumor Malignancies
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and the maximum tolerated dose of
GRN163L administration in treating patients with refractory or relapsed solid tumor
malignancies.
GRN163L administration in treating patients with refractory or relapsed solid tumor
malignancies.
GRN163L is a telomerase template antagonist with in vitro and in vivo activity in a variety
of tumor model systems. Telomerase is an enzyme that is active primarily in tumor cells and
is crucial for the indefinite growth of tumor cells. Inhibition of telomerase may result in
antineoplastic effects.
