Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: Forodesine (BCX-1777) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of BCX-1777 in treating patients who have refractory stage IIA, stage IIB, stage III, stage IVA, or stage IVB cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the safety and efficacy of forodesine (BCX-1777) in patients with refractory stage IIA-IVB cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.
* Determine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, multicenter study.

Patients receive oral forodesine (BCX-1777) once daily on days 1-28. Courses may be repeated in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed periodically.
