Experimental Treatment
Group I: Quercetin - Dietary SupplementExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Quercetin will be given orally on a twice a day schedule starting with weight adjusted dose for a maximum total daily dose of 1500 mg/day, for 4 months (16 weeks). Pharmacokinetics (PK) data will be analyzed after each cohort of 3 patients and will be used to optimize the dosing schedule (if required) for subsequent patients. An expansion cohort has been added to the study protocol. Up to 20 patients may be enrolled. The dose utilized will be the same as the max weight adjusted dose that showed biological activity in our last cohort of patients (subjects #10-12 from above).
