Participant Flow

This study was initiated July 2015 at the University of Kentucky and enrolled 10 adult patients with early stage solid malignancies.

10 patients enrolled in this dose escalation study. In Period 1, three patients were assigned to receive 200mg HCQ twice daily. Based on toxicity and PAR-4 levels, in Period 2 the next four patients received 400mg HCQ twice daily. Following additional analysis, in Period 3 the final three patients received 200mg HCQ twice daily.
