Stage 1 is the dose escalation part of the study. Stage 2, patients will receive GDC-0084 at a recommended dose for future studies.
NCT00493155
This study will determine the maximum tolerated dose, and assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of R1530 administered orally to patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. R1530 will be administered daily for 14 days at the starting dose; this dose will be escalated in subsequent cohorts of patients, after a satisfactory assessment of safety and tolerability of the previous dose, until the maximum tolerated dose is reached.

NCT00930514
This 2 stage study will compare the pharmacokinetics and safety profile of subcutaneous and intravenous rituximab in participants with follicular lymphoma. In the first stage, participants who have achieved at least a partial response after induction treatment with intravenous rituximab will be randomized to one of 3 treatment cohorts, to receive rituximab 375 milligram per square meter (mg/m\^2) intravenously, 375 mg/m\^2 subcutaneously or 625 mg/m\^2 subcutaneously, and pharmacokinetics evaluated on an ongoing basis. Upon selection of the subcutaneous dose (800 mg/m\^2) which results in rituximab trough plasma concentration (C trough) values comparable to those achieved with the intravenous formulation, participants in the second stage of the study will be randomized to receive either the subcutaneous or intravenous formulation to demonstrate comparability of the C trough levels with both routes of administration. Maintenance therapy will continue every 2 or 3 months with the subcutaneous formulation.
