A Phase I Study of PS-341 in Combination With Paclitaxel in Metastatic Solid Tumors


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of bortezomib when given in combination with
paclitaxel in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study of bortezomib.

Patients receive bortezomib IV on days 2 and 9 and paclitaxel IV over 1 hour on days 1 and
8. For the first course only, patients do not receive paclitaxel on day 1. Courses repeat
every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of bortezomib 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 or greater than 80% 20S proteasome
inhibition. Once the MTD is determined, an additional 6-9 patients are accrued and treated
at that dose.

Patients are followed at 21 days.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 45 patients will be accrued for this study.
