Trial Information
A Phase I/II, Dose-escalation Study of Lipotecan® Plus Radiotherapy in Locally Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Lipotecan® is a drug product of TLC388 HCl, which is a potent camptothecin analog with
cytotoxic activities against a variety of human tumor cell lines and anti-tumor activities
in several xenograft models with human tumor cell lines. Structurally, TLC388 HCl is related
to other camptothecins, but it has been chemically modified to improve stability and
potency, and to minimize toxicities.
