Brief Summary: Background

HIF-1 is a common mediator of hypoxic and non-hypoxic pathways that affects a transcriptional program leading to survival angiogenesis migration and invasion of cancer cells We have demonstrated that chronic administration of topotecan inhibits HIF-1alpha expression angiogenesis and tumor growth in human xenografts Notably the mechanism by which topotecan inhibits HIF-1alpha protein expression is independent of replication-mediated DNA damage suggested a mechanism of action distinct from its cytotoxic effects

Objectives

This clinical trial is designed to explore the hypothesis that chronic administration of topotecan TPT inhibits Hypoxia Inducible factor 1alpha HIF-1alpha expression and angiogenesis in patients with metastatic tumors over-expressing HIF-1alpha

Eligibility

Adult patients with metastatic solid tumors expressing HIF-1alpha for whom standard therapy does not exist or would likely not be effective will be evaluated for study eligibility Due to safety concerns pregnant women and HIV-infected individuals are excluded from this study Prior to enrollment archival tumor tissue wil be evaluated for the expression of HIF-1alpha as assessed by IHC Only patients who have tumors that express HIF-1alpha and who meet all eligibility criteria will be enrolled on this study Patients will be asked to undergo a biopsy to evaluate HIF-1alpha expression before starting treatment and at the end of treatment on cycle 2 day 12 or 13 cycle 2

Design

Topotecan at the dose of 12 mgm2 will be administered orally daily x 5 for 2 weeks during a 28 days cycle Imaging studies including CT FDG-PET and DCE-MRI will be performed at baseline at the end of treatment on cycle 1 day 9 or 10 end of treatment on cycle 2 day 12 or 13 and then every 2 cycles and will provide information on clinical response as well as tumor metabolism and angiogenesis The repeat scans on day 9 or 10 of cycle 1 will be performed solely for research purposes to evaluate for early changes in tumor metabolism and angiogenesis Additional correlative studies include evaluation of mRNA expression of HIF-1 target genes in tumor tissue circulating markers of angiogenesis and measurement of circulating endothelial precursor cells CEP The goal of this trial is to establish whether topotecan inhibits HIF-1alpha and angiogenesis in human cancers
