BACKGROUND. CI-958 is a synthetic intercalating agent of a new chemical class, the benzopyranoindazoles, with promising preclinical activity. Its mechanism of action is thought to be stabilization of the cleavable complex of DNA with topoisomerase II, as well as DNA helicase blockade. It is thought
## BACKGROUND. Raltitrexed is a novel thymidylate synthase inhibitor with single agent activity in colorectal, nonsmall cell lung, and breast carcinomas. The recommended Phase II dose of raltitrexed administered as a single agent is 3 mg/m 2 every 3 weeks. Paclitaxel also has a broad spectrum of a
A Phase I and feasibility study of combined docetaxel (D) plus paclitaxel (P) was undertaken to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) for each analogue delivered concomitantly on a weekly schedule. ## METHODS. Patients were accrued in 3-6 patient cohorts to P
Pre-clinical data and adult experience suggests that topoisomerase targeted anti-cancer agents may be highly schedule dependent, and efficacy may improve with prolonged exposure. To investigate this hypothesis, 28 children with recurrent brain and solid tumors were enrolled in a phase II study of or
