Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
DEP(TM) Docetaxel (DTX-SPL8783) / Escalating doses by intravenous infusion, single dose once every cycle (cycle length of 3 weeks). Number of doses (i.e., cycles) and dosage amounts will depend on any toxicities occurring at each dose level. Starting dose of 10mg/m2, increased by 1.4 to 2 times at each dose level. Treatment will be continued until tumour progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal from the study based on investigator discretion or patient decision.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 291396 0
Determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) as assessed by occurrence of dose limiting toxicities (DLT)
Timepoint [1] 291396 0
