About this study

  • Investigate the tolerance of Chlorogenic acid for injection in human body, determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) of Chlorogenic acid for injection in the advanced malignant tumor subjects;
  • Determine the human pharmacokinetics characteristic of Chlorogenic acid for injection;
  • Preliminary observation the effectiveness and effective dose;
  • Provide the basis for the dosage regimen of phase II/III.

Treatment and study plan

Chlorogenic acid

Drug

Chlorogenic acid for injection is polyphenols, micromolecular and un-endogenous substance. It might play the role of cancer treatment via balancing tumor micro-environmental immune status according to the stability and rationality of immunodeficiency and endogenous immune material expression around the tumor. Chlorogenic acid for injection is made from chlorogenic acid (purity≥98%) which is extracted from folium cortex eucommiae.Chlorogenic acid and its preparations have not been reported as chemical drug and marketed around the world.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of adverse events

    Time frame: Within the first 60 days after the first dose of chlorogenic acid

Secondary outcomes

  1. Dose-Limiting Toxicity

    Time frame: Within the first 30 days after the first dose of chlorogenic acid

  2. Maximum Tolerated Dose

    Time frame: Within the first 30 days after the first dose of chlorogenic acid

  3. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of chlorogenic acid

    Time frame: Within the first 30 days after the first dose of chlorogenic acid

  4. Improvement in cancer-related symptoms and quality of life

    Time frame: Within 1 year after the first dose of chlorogenic acid

Other outcomes

  1. Changing in number of red blood cell and level of hemoglobin

    Time frame: within 1 year after the first dose of chlorogenic acid

  2. Changing in the diameters of lymph node metastasis

    Time frame: Within 1 year after the first dose of chlorogenic acid
