Safety Study of SGX523, a Small Molecule Met Inhibitor, to Treat Solid Tumors
Stopped early · Phase 1
Conditions studied: Advanced Cancer
In brief
SGX523 is a drug which acts by blocking the function of an enzyme called MET. MET activity may be important in growth and survival of some types of cancer. This Phase I trial is studying the safety, side effects, and best dose of SGX523 when given to patients with advanced cancer, and how well it inhibits MET activity in tumors.

- Pathologic evidence of solid tumor.
- Failed standard therapy and deemed by the Investigator to be suitable for participation into the trial.
- Laboratory values (obtained within 10 days prior to enrollment): ANC: >= 1.5 × 109/L; Platelets: >= 100 × 109/L; Hemoglobin: >= 10.0 g/dL (without transfusions); Bilirubin: within normal range; AST, ALT, and alkaline phosphatase: <= 2.5 x ULN without tumor liver involvement; Serum creatinine: within normal limits; Calculated creatinine clearance: >= 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients with creatinine > Institutional Normal Values; PT/PTT/INR: within normal limits.

- Have a known active infection with HIV, hepatitis B or C.
- Have psychiatric or seizure disorders that would require therapy or interfere with study participation.
- Have other severe concurrent nonmalignant disease that could compromise protocol objectives, including malabsorptive conditions.
- Patients receiving prohibited medications as listed in Appendix E, including drugs categorized as strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 and A5 and drugs known to have a high potential risk of liver toxicity.
