A Study to Assess the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of an Inhibitor of Poly ADP-Ribose Polymerase-1 (PARP)

A Phase I, Pharmacokinetic and Biological Evaluation of a Small Molecule Inhibitor of Poly ADP-Ribose Polymerase-1 (PARP-1), KU-0059436, in Patients With Advanced Tumours.

To determine the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic profile, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of KU-0059436 when administered orally to patients with advanced solid tumours. To further evaluate the safety and efficacy of KU-0059436 in an expanded cohort of BCRA-enriched population, primarily ovarian cancer patients

Inclusion Criteria:

• Confirmed malignant advanced solid tumour refractory to standard therapy or for which no suitable effective standard therapy exists.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Anti-cancer therapy including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy, immunotherapy or use of other investigational agents within the 4 weeks prior to trial entry (or a longer period depending on the defined characteristics of the agents used).
