Phase Ib Study of Gemcitabine Plus Cisplatin or Carboplatin Plus Dovitinib in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a phase Ib dose escalation study of dovitinib given in combination with either gemcitabine plus cisplatin or carboplatin in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients with advanced solid tumors, for whom treatment with gemcitabine plus cisplatin or carboplatin would otherwise be warranted, will be enrolled. The dose of dovitinib will be escalated in successive cohorts using standard "3+3" dose escalation rules. Patients will continue treatment, in the absence of prohibitive toxicity, until disease progression. The study will define the recommended phase II dose of these combination regimens.
