About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Advanced Solid Tumors focused on measuring Solid Tumors, Lymphoma, G-Quadruplex

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with histologically confirmed solid tumors or lymphomas.
  • Tumor progression after receiving standard/approved chemotherapy or where there is no approved therapy.
  • One or more tumors measurable on radiograph or CT scan, or evaluable disease. (e.g., malignant ascites)
  • Karnofsky performance status of greater than or equal to 70.
  • Life expectancy of at least 3 months.
  • Age at least 18 years.
  • Patients must have central IV access, or agree to the insertion of a central IV line.
  • A negative urine pregnancy test (if female.)
  • Acceptable liver function as evaluated by laboratory results
  • Acceptable hematologic status as evaluated by laboratory results
  • No clinically significant urinalysis abnormalities
  • Acceptable coagulation status as evaluated by laboratory results
  • Fertile men and women must use effective contraceptive methods during the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Seizure disorders not controlled by anticonvulsant therapy.
  • Known brain metastases (unless previously treated and well controlled for a period of greater than or equal to 3 months.)
  • Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with hypoxemia or a pulmonary compromise not correctable with therapy.
  • Major surgery, other than diagnostic surgery, within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of test drug.
  • Active, uncontrolled bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, requiring systemic therapy.
  • Pregnant or nursing women.
  • Treatment with radiation therapy, surgery, chemotherapy, or investigational therapy within 4 weeks prior to study entry (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or Mitomycin C.)
  • Unwillingness or inability to comply with procedures required in this protocol.
  • Known infection with HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C.
  • Clinically significant bleeding event within the last 3 months, unrelated to trauma, or underlying condition that would be expected to result in a bleeding diathesis.
  • Patients who are currently receiving any other investigational therapy.
  • Patients who have exhibited allergic reactions to a similar structural compound (e.g., fluoroquinolones), biological agent, or formulation.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This phase 1 study of CX-3543 is designed to test the safety, tolerability and highest safe dose level of this drug in patients with advanced solid tumor cancers.
Detailed Description
CX-4945 is a first-in-class small-molecule targeted cancer therapeutic derived from the validated fluoroquinolone class of drugs. This drug was rationally designed to target a G-quadruplex (QPLX) DNA structure and disrupt protein-DNA interactions essential to cancer cells. The QPLX targeted by quarfloxin forms within ribosomal DNA (rDNA) and the QPLX is bound by the nucleolin protein.This Phase 1 study of CX-3543 is designed to test the safety, tolerability and highest safe dose level of this drug in patients with advanced solid tumor cancers.
