Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find the safest dose level of an approved drug, carfilzomib, in solid tumors when given over a different period of time than normally used. The study will also use mark...

Detailed Description

The role of the proteasome in carcinogenesis and cell survival has been well established, and its inhibition associated with an accumulation of pro-apoptotic proteins and cell death. Proteasome inhibi...

Exclusion

  • Treatment related residual toxicity \> grade 1.
  • Prior treatment with a proteasome inhibitor.
  • Uncontrolled systemic disease or intercurrent illness.
  • Recent history of myocardial infarction (MI) or symptomatic coronary artery disease within the preceding 6 months.
