Phase 1

Details

This trial looked at a treatment called OXi4503 for people with an advanced solid tumour (not lymphoma or leukaemia). This trial was supported by Cancer Research UK.

Cancers need a blood supply to grow and spread. OXi4503 is a type of biological therapy called a vascular disrupting agent. This means it can reduce or shut down the blood supply to cancer cells. When this happens, the cancer cells cannot get the oxygen and nutrients they need to survive and grow, and so they die.

Recruitment start: 12 May 2005

Recruitment end: 28 January 2010
