A Phase I Study of Intravenous Aflibercept in Combination With Docetaxel in Japanese Cancer Patients

A Phase I, Dose-Escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Aflibercept in Combination With Intravenous Docetaxel Administered Every 3 Weeks in Patients With Advanced Solid Malignancies

The primary objective of this study is to determine the dose of aflibercept to be further studied in combination with docetaxel in Japanese cancer patients.

The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the safety profile of aflibercept, to determine the pharmacokinetics of aflibercept, to make a preliminary assessment of antitumor effects.
