Clinical Trial for Myxoid Liposarcoma (SMI-BRS-202)

Phase II, multicenter, open-label clinical trial designed to determine the efficacy and safety of brostallicin when administered once every 3 weeks in patients with myxoid liposarcoma with (12;16) translocation

The primary objective of this study is to determine the response rate following brostallicin administration.

What is brostallicin?

Brostallicin (bräst-al-iss-in) is a new class of cancer drug — a synthetic DNA minor groove binding agent. We are developing brostallicin for the treatment of advanced or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma. More >>
