Study Details

Brief summary:

This phase I/II trial evaluates the highest safe dose, side effects, and possible benefits of tegavivint in treating patients with solid tumors that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Tegavivint interferes with the binding of beta-catenin to TBL1, which may help stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell that tell a cell to grow.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Treatment (tegavivint)

Tegavivint will be administered IV over 4 hours on days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Administer D5W flush after completion of each tegavivint infusion. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 26 cycles or 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Drug doses should be adjusted based on the weight (height and BSA will also be captured) measured within 7 days prior to the beginning of each cycle. The starting dose will be 5 mg/kg with dose levels for subsequent cohorts increasing to 6.5 mg/kg and 8 mg/kg if excessive toxicity does not occur. If the MTD has been exceeded at the first dose level, then the subsequent cohort of patients will be treated at a dose of 4 mg/kg. Patients undergo an x-ray at baseline, after cycle 1, and then every 3 cycles while on treatment and DEXA scan at baseline and every 6 cycles while on treatment, then at 12 months, 24 months, and annually up to 60 months following end of therapy.
