Study Summary

STA-9090 works by inhibiting the function of a protein in tumor cells called Hsp90. Hsp90 is thought to play a role in tumor growth. By interfering with this protein's function, STA-9090 may help kill tumor cells. This drug has been used in other research studies and information from those studies suggests that this agent may help to slow tumor growth in HCC. The purpose of this research study is to find the highest dose of STA-9090 that can safely be given to participants with advanced HCC. The investigators will also get more information about the safety of STA-9090 and perform tests to learn more about how STA-9090 affects the body.

Primary Outcome

Dose escalation/de-escalation study will be performed in order to determine the Phase 2 dose of STA-9090 given once weekly in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The dose limiting toxicities will be determined at each dose level.
