5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary objective of this extension protocol is to evaluate the early safety of a new schedule of NGR-hTNF given weekly, instead of every 3 or 4 weeks, in a cohort of 12 patients randomized to the experimental arm A, as compared to a reference cohort of 12 patients randomized to an anthracycline alone
Detailed Description
In this extension protocol IPR/26 of completed IPR/24 study, considering the relatively short half-life of approximately 1 hour and the favourable toxicity profile of NGR-hTNF, characterized by transient constitutional symptoms occurring during the first day of administration, an additional cohort of 24 patients will be randomized and the 12 patients enrolled in arm A will receive the same dose of NGR-hTNF 0.8 mcg/m2 given as 60 minutes infusion every week. the weekly schedule of NGR-hTNF 0.8 mcg/m2 has previously been tested in several studies
