About
This is a Phase 1b, open-label, non-randomized, Dose Confirmation study. Subjects will be treated, once a week, with IV doses of Nerofe and low dose (20 mg/m2) Doxorubicin (6-8 hours from one another) in consecutive, 28-day cycles.
Full description
Subjects will be evaluated regularly for safety. Subjects will return for a follow-up visit 30-33 days after the last dosing of study drug. Subjects who tolerate the drug and who do not experience progressive disease, intolerable toxicity, or meet any of the other withdrawal criteria - may continue to receive Nerofe & Doxorubicin for up to 5 cycles, at the discretion of the Principal Investigator. Throughout the trial, oversight will be provided by the Clinical Safety Committee (CSC).
