Study Summary

This trialis testing a drug to treat advanced liver cancer, stopping tumor cell growth and multiplication.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who haven't responded to current treatments. They must have documented HCC, be in good enough health as judged by specific blood and organ function tests, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Contraception is required for participants of childbearing potential. Those with other active cancers or severe heart conditions are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing PD-0332991, a drug that aims to halt the growth of liver tumor cells by preventing DNA replication. This Phase 2 trial will assess its effectiveness in patients whose tumors can't be surgically removed and who meet certain health criteria.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects of PD-0332991 aren't detailed here, similar drugs often cause fatigue, nausea, low blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, liver issues, and potential allergic reactions.

Has the FDA approved PD-0332991 for use?

"The safety of PD-0332991 has been rated a 2. This is because, at this stage in the clinical trial process there is evidence to suggest that it may be safe but as yet no proof exists supporting its efficacy."

Answered by AI

What applications has PD-0332991 been explored for therapeutically?

"Commonly used to address breast cancer, PD-0332991 can also be taken as a therapeutic measure for other malignant neoplasms and postmenopausal issues, along with advance directives."

Answered by AI

Have any other research efforts focused on PD-0332991?

"Currently, there are 134 research initiatives in progress for the drug PD-0332991, with 16 of them being at Phase 3. While most studies are located near Burgas, New jersey, overall 6549 sites have been established to examine this medication's efficacy and safety."

Answered by AI

Is this the inaugural trial of its kind?

"Presently, there are 134 active trials for PD-0332991 hosted across 1320 cities and 56 nations. The first trial of this drug, sponsored by Pfizer in 2011, included 23 patients who completed the Phase 2 stage of its approval process. Since then, a further 77 studies have been successfully concluded."

Answered by AI
