Safingol and Cisplatin in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific

In brief

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Safingol may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth and by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of safingol when given with cisplatin in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
