Brief Title: Study of MGCD0103 (MG-0103) in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Official Title: A Phase II Study of MGCD0103 (MG-0103) in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Study ID: NCT00358982
Brief Summary: MGCD0103 is an experimental drug that belongs to a class of drugs known as the histone deacetylase inhibitors, which may restore normal control in cancer cells by affecting the genes and proteins that are being made. Laboratory tests show that this new investigational anti-cancer drug can slow down the growth of human cancer cells in mice; two clinical research studies are currently being performed in humans with cancer and a similar study is being performed in patients with the same disease. The purpose of this study is to find out what effect the experimental drug MGCD0103 has on patients with relapsed and refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma.
