Trial Information

An Open Label, Non Randomized , One Sequence, Add-On Study to Investigate the Effects of PTK787/ZK 222584 on the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Warfarin at Steady-States in Cancer Patients


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Determine the acute and chronic changes in INR in patients with advanced solid tumors
treated with low-dose warfarin and vatalanib.

Secondary

- Determine the steady-state pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients.

- Determine the safety and tolerability of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a nonrandomized, open-label, multicenter study.

- Pharmacokinetic (PK) phase: Patients receive oral low-dose warfarin once daily on days
1-14 and oral vatalanib once daily, 1 hour before warfarin administration, on days 2-14
in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- Continuation phase: Patients not experiencing a drug interaction in the PK phase
continue to receive oral vatalanib and oral low-dose warfarin once daily. Patients
experiencing a drug interaction (INR > 2.0) in the PK phase receive oral vatalanib
alone once daily. Continuation therapy continues indefinitely in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 30 patients will be accrued for this study.
