Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of TTP607 that can be given to patients with a solid tumor or lymphoma. The safety of TTP607 will also be studied.
Researchers will also do pharmacokinetic (PK) testing of TTP607. PK testing measures the amount of a drug in the body at different time points.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The Study Drug:
TTP607 is designed to work by blocking the action of certain enzymes (proteins) in the blood that are responsible for abnormal growth of cancer cells. This may cause the cancer cells to eventually die.
Dose Level Assignment:
If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will be enrolled in a group of 3-6 participants. The dose you receive will be based on when you join this study (on how many participants have been enrolled before you, and on the safety data that is available at that time). The first group of participants will receive the lowest dose of TTP607. Each new group of participants will receive the next highest dose of the study drug, as long as no intolerable side effects occur. This process will continue until the highest tolerable dose of TTP607 is reached. Once the highest tolerable dose is found, 12 additional participants will be enrolled and treated at that dose, so that researchers can learn more about the effects of the study drug on the tumor. Both you and your study doctor will know what dose of the study drug you are receiving.
Study Drug Administration:
Starting on Day 1 of Cycle 1, you will receive TTP607 by central venous catheter (CVC or central venous line). There are several types of central venous catheters. Each type of catheter is a flexible, long, thin tube that is inserted through a vein, under a local anesthetic, through a small cut in your chest (near your heart). Some chemotherapy drugs are not suitable to be given into the veins in your hand or arm, so these drugs must be given into a larger vein. The CVC may also be used for drawing blood samples that are needed regularly. Using the CVC for these blood draws will lower the need for repeated blood draws from your arm. TTP607 will be given over 1-4 hours depending on the dose you receive, each day for 5 days in a row, followed by a 10-day "rest period" (no study drug). This 15 days is considered 1 cycle.
Study Visits:
On Day 1 (All Cycles):
You will have the below tests/procedures during your study visits:
* Your vital signs will be taken.
* You will have blood (about 1-2 tablespoons each time) drawn and urine collected for routine tests.
* You will be asked about any other medications that you may be taking and any side effects you may have experienced since your last visit.
* You will have an ECG.
* You will have a brief physical exam and routine eye exam.
* You will have a computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET) scan to check the size of the tumor.

2. Patients with known brain metastases that are symptomatic
3. Patients with leukemias or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
4. Patients who have undergone bone marrow or stem cell transplantation within the last 5 years.
5. A requirement, as judged by the Principal Investigator, for primary prophylaxis with colony stimulating factors based on an expectation by the investigator of a risk of febrile neutropenia of 20% or greater or clinical factors that predispose the patient to increased complications from prolonged neutropenia as discussed in the latest American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) recommendations for the use of white blood cell growth factor guidelines.
6. Nursing or pregnant women.
7. Documented HIV, HBV or HCV infection.
8. Patients with hypersensitivity to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to TTP607 or constituents of the intravenous (i.v.) formulation.
