A Phase I Study of ABT 510 for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme

ABT 510 (TSP-1 mimetic peptide) is a parenterally available nonapeptide analog of the heptapeptide and is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis. ABT 510 competes with TSP-1 for binding to endothelial cells, but the exact mechanism of anti-angiogenesis is unknown. ABT 510 is administered by SQ injection. The starting dose of ABT 510 will be 20mg once daily (QD) SQ. Doses will be escalated by approximately 50% increments in consecutive cohorts of 3-6 patients until maximum tolerated dose is achieved.
