Arm 1
Experimental
Trabectedin in combination with Pioglitazone
Trabectedin administered at a dose of 1.5 mg/m2-1.3 mg/m2 (according to investigator's choice, with a top-dose of 2.6 total mg per cycle) as a 24-hour continuous infusion via a central venous access every 3 weeks and Pioglitazone given continuously at the daily dose of 45 mg by oral route. Since Trabectedin has no cumulative toxicities, and Pioglitazone as well, the combination will be administered until progressive disease, major toxicity, patient's intolerance or unwillingness to continue treatment, or medical decision by the responsible physician.
