About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Oxaliplatin in Patients With Advanced Malignancies and Varying Degrees of Liver Dysfunction (Summary Last Modified 04/2000)

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of oxaliplatin in treating patients who have advanced cancer plus liver dysfunction.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of oxaliplatin in patients with advanced malignancies and varying degrees of liver dysfunction. II. Determine the effects of hepatic dysfunction on the plasma pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of oxaliplatin in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to liver function as defined by the following: Group A: Normal liver function - Bilirubin, SGOT, and alkaline phosphatase no greater than upper limit of normal (ULN) Group B: Mild liver dysfunction - Bilirubin no greater than ULN; SGOT greater than ULN to 2.5 times ULN and/or alkaline phosphatase greater than ULN to 5 times ULN Group C: Moderate liver function - Bilirubin greater than ULN to 3.0 mg/dL and/or SGOT greater than 2.5 times ULN and/or alkaline phosphatase greater than 5 times normal Group D: Severe liver dysfunction - Bilirubin greater than 3.1 mg/dL and any SGOT or alkaline phosphatase Group E: Patients who have received a liver transplant Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-6 patients in groups B, C, and D receive escalating doses of oxaliplatin until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose- limiting toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 72 patients will be accrued for this study within 1.5 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing oxaliplatin in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by City of Hope Medical Center at 11 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Jan 2010.
