This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The Objectives are: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of E7389 administered as an IV bolus over 1-2 minutes weekly for 3 weeks; to describe the toxicities of E7389; to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of E7389; whenever feasible, to determine the in vivo anti-mitotic activity of E7389 by cell cycle analysis and immunohistochemistry in pre- and post-treatment tumor biopsies. Once the MTD of E7389 has been determined, an additional 10 patients with biopsy-accessible tumors will be enrolled to make a preliminary assessment of target validation feasibility.
