Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to test whether perifosine- a drug that inhibits the protein AKT, and has had some success in the treatment of adult cancers- is safe and effective in treating cancer. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, it has on the patient and the cancer. The investigators are testing different dose schedules of perifosine and the patient will be asked to partake in one of the dose schedules.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

perifosine

This will be a dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of perifosine alone in recurrent/progressive pediatric tumors. A standard 3+3 dose escalation design will be employed with 3-6 patients at each dose level.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

perifosine

Intervention Type DRUG

Open label, phase I study of oral perifosine in recurrent/progressive pediatric solid tumors. This will be a dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of perifosine alone in recurrent/progressive pediatric tumors. A standard 3+3 dose escalation design will be employed with 3-6 patients at each dose level. All patients will receive perifosine at a loading dose on the first day, followed by a maintenance dose to start on day two until progression each patient will be assigned to a dosing group based on one's body surface area (BSA).

* Patients must be able to swallow tablets whole

Exclusion Criteria

* Pregnancy
* Patients must not have active infection or serious intercurrent medical illness.
* HIV-Positive patients receiving combination anti-retroviral therapy are excluded from the study due to possible retro-viral drug interactions. HIV testing not required.
* Patients must not be taking EIAEDs. If patients were previously EIAEDs that have been discontinued, patients must have been off the agent for at least 2 weeks prior to registration.
