Intra-patient Dose Escalation Study of Sorafenib in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Carcinoma, Non Small Cell Lung

In brief

The purpose of this study is to determine the number of patients with advanced, relapsed non-small cell lung cancer who can tolerate dose escalation sorafenib from 400 mg twice daily to either 600 mg twice daily or 800 mg twice daily. Safety and tolerability of sorafenib will also be examined.
