Study Summary

Objectives: Primary objectives: To determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) for the combination of imatinib mesylate, capecitabine, and dacarbazine in patients with solid tumors. To determine the overall tumor response rate to imatinib mesylate in combination with capecitabine and dacarbazine as first line and second line therapy in advanced metastatic medullary thyroid carcinoma. To determine the tolerability (toxicity) of this regimen. Secondary objectives: To determine the median overall survival (OS) and time to progression (TTP) for patients treated with this combination.

Primary Outcome

The MTD is defined as the dose level below that producing dose limiting toxicity (DLT; i.e. any Grade 4 hematologic toxicity and /or non hematological toxicity \>/= Grade 3 in 2/6 participants).

Interventions

  • DRUG Capecitabine (Xeloda)
  • DRUG DTIC-Dome (Dacarbazine)
  • DRUG Gleevec (Imatinib Mesylate)
