Study Description

Brief Summary:

The study seeks to assess the safety, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of belinostat (PXD101) administered in combination with carboplatin or paclitaxel or both in patients with solid tumours followed by maximum tolerated dose (MTD) expansion (phase II) in ovarian and bladder cancer patients

The clinical trial is now in the MTD (phase II) portion of the study enrolling bladder cancer patients. Enrollment of ovarian patients is complete.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

1. Maximum Tolerable Dose (MTD) Belinostat, Part A, [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 ]
   To determine the maximum tolerated dose of belinostat (PXD101) in doses up to 1000 mg/m²/day administered in combination with standard doses of carboplatin (AUC of 5) and paclitaxel (175 mg/m2).
2. Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT), Part A [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 ]
   To determine the number of participants experiencing dose limiting toxicities of belinostat (PXD101) in doses up to 1000 mg/m²/day administered in combination with standard doses of carboplatin and paclitaxel or both.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

1. Best Overall Response (CR or PR) [ Time Frame: Throughout study until PD (progressive disease) or lost to follow up ]
   Best overall responses were assessed by RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) criteria. Clinical tumor evaluation will take place after each cycle. Formal radiological evaluation after every 2 cycles. If a response is noted, a follow-up radiographic assessment must be performed 4 weeks (+ 1 week) after the response is noted
2. To Determine the Pharmacodynamic Effects of Belinostat (in the Combination) on Histone Acetylation in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (Selected Sites) [ Time Frame: Throughout the study ]
3. Time to Progression [ Time Frame: Throughout study ]
   Time to progression, defined as the interval between the first dates of treatment until the first notation of disease progression. RECIST criteria
