Study Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of entinostat in treating pediatric patients with solid tumors that have come back or have not responded to treatment. Entinostat may block some of the enzymes needed for cell division and it may help to kill tumor cells.

Primary Outcome

The MTD/RP2D will be defined as the maximum dose at which fewer than one-third of patients experience dose limiting toxicity during cycle 1 of therapy among 6 toxicity-evaluable patients. The frequency of cycle 1 dose limiting toxicities will be summarized by dose level among patients in the dose escalation part of the study.
