Brief Summary

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

This is an open-label, multicenter study with a phase 1 dose escalation portion and a 2-stage, phase 2 portion, investigating MLN8237 (alisertib) in patients with advanced nonhematological malignancies.

Detailed Description

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

Following the determination of the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) and schedule (Phase 1), 20 response-evaluable patients in each of the 5 tumor indications will be enrolled (Phase 2-Stage 1). An interim analysis will determine which tumor indications will proceed to enroll an additional 25 patients (Phase 2-Stage 2) to further evaluate Overall Response Rate (ORR) and other secondary endpoints.
