Trial Information

Phase I Study of Oxaliplatin (NSC# 266046), Irinotecan, and Capecitabine in Patients With Solid Tumors


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of irinotecan and
capecitabine when given in combination with a fixed dose of oxaliplatin in patients
with advanced solid tumors.

- Determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of this regimen in these patients.

- Determine the antitumor response of these patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of irinotecan and capecitabine.

Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours followed 1 hour later by irinotecan IV over 30
minutes once weekly for 4 weeks. Patients also receive oral capecitabine twice daily on days
1-5 weekly for 4 weeks. Treatment repeats every 6 weeks in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of irinotecan and capecitabine until the
maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at
which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 9-15 patients will be accrued for this study within 9-15
months.
