Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.

Purpose

This study will determine the best doses of docetaxel and lonafarnib when the two anti-cancer agents are used in combination. Patients with tumors for which treatment with docetaxel would be appropriate are eligible. A second part of the study will further examine the effectiveness of the combination treatment in men with prostate cancer.

Known leptomeningeal or CNS metastasis.
Heart, vascular, or seizure disorder (detailed list in the protocol) within 6 months prior to first study drug administration.
Baseline QTc interval greater than 450 msec.
Grade 2 or more peripheral neuropathy or drug-related toxicity per CTCAE. Exceptions are noted in the protocol.
