Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Taxoprexin® Treatment for Advanced Primary Cancers of the Liver

Study Description

Brief Summary: To evaluate objective response rate and duration of response to weekly Taxoprexin®. To evaluate the safety profile of weekly Taxoprexin® in this patient population. To evaluate overall survival in the same patient population. To evaluate time to disease progression, and the time to treatment failure in patients with primary liver cancer being treated with weekly Taxoprexin® Injection. To explore the trough and peak blood levels of Taxoprexin® and paclitaxel in these patients.

Detailed Description: This is a Phase II open-label study of weekly Taxoprexin® Injection in patients with advanced primary cancers of the liver, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), or carcinoma of the gallbladder or biliary tract (BTC), who have not received prior systemic cytotoxic therapy for advanced disease. Patients may have previously received radiation and/or systemic chemotherapy as adjuvant therapy. Patients may not have been treated previously with a taxane. Patients may have been previously treated with up to two immunological and/or biologic agents (e.g., interferon, monoclonal antibodies, tyrosine kinase inhibitors). Patients will receive Taxoprexin® Injection at a dose of 500mg/m2 (400mg/m2 for patients with an elevated bilirubin at baseline) intravenously by 1-hour infusion weekly for the first five weeks of a six week cycle. Treatment will continue until progression of disease, intolerable toxicity, refusal of continued treatment by patient or Investigator decision.
