Trial Information

SORAVE-Sorafenib and Everolimus in Solid Tumors. A Phase I Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety of Combined Sorafenib and Everolimus Treatment in Patients With Relapsed Solid Tumors.


Patients will be recruited to receive combination of defined sorafenib dose (2x400mg) with
increasing dose of everolimus (2.5mg, 5mg, 7.5mg, 10mg). There will be a run-in phase of 14
days of everolimus followed by combination sorafenib+everolimus starting from day 15. The
combination will be continued as long as it is tolerated by the patient and the patient
benefits from the treatment according to RECIST criteria. The maximal tolerated dose will be
establish in 3+3 design. Patients will be recruited sequentially at least 14 days apart. The
next dose level according to 3+3 design will be initiated if all patients on the previous
dose level reach day 29.


Inclusion Criteria:

- ≥ 18 years of age

- Performance status ECOG 0-2

- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks

- Subjects with at least one measurable (CT or MRI) lesion

- Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following
laboratory requirements to be conducted within 7 days prior to screening:

- Magnesium WNL or correctable with supplements

- PT-INR/PTT < 1.5 x ULN [Patients who are being therapeutically anticoagulated
with an agent such as coumadin or heparin will be allowed to participate
provided that no prior evidence of underlying abnormality in these parameters
exists]

given)

bowel resection)

- History of HIV infection or previously sero-positive for the virus

- History of Hepatitis B or/and C or previously sero-positive for the Hepatitis B

- Patients with evidence or history of bleeding diathesis

- Patients undergoing renal dialysis

- Previous treatment with mTOR inhibitors and/or known hypersensitivity to mTOR
inhibitors

carcinoma in situ, treated basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder tumors [Ta, Tis
& T1] or any cancer curatively treated > 3 years prior to study entry

- Any person being in an institution on assignment of the respective authority

- Any medical, mental or psychological condition which in the opinion of the
investigator would not permit the patient to complete the study or understand the
patient information

- Women who are pregnant or breast feeding, or women who are able to conceive and
unwilling to practice an effective method of birth control (safe hormonal methods
or/and barrier contraception) during study and 2 months after the last study drug
intake
