Drug Interaction Study of Sorafenib and Rapamycin in Advanced Malignancies

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Advanced Solid Tumor

In brief

The goal of this study is to determine whether a significant pharmacokinetic interaction exists between rapamycin and sorafenib. This study will also look at the toxicity of the combination of rapamycin and sorafenib and the antitumor activity of the combination in subjects with advanced cancers.
