About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Farnesyl Transferase Inhibitor BMS-214662 (NSC 710086D) in Solid Tumors

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of BMS-214662 in treating patients who have solid tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of BMS-214662 in patients with solid tumors.

II. Evaluate intermediate biological endpoints as surrogates for the effectiveness of this drug in these patients.

III. Determine the nature of dose limiting toxicity of this drug in this patient population.

IV. Determine the recommended phase II regimen of this drug in these patients. V. Establish a pharmacologic and pharmacokinetic profile of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study.

Patients receive BMS-214662 IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Treatment repeats every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of BMS-214662 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicities.

Patients are followed every 3 months for at least 24 months.

Being tested
BMS-214662, laboratory biomarker analysis

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. MTD, defined as the dose level among the 9 levels studied having toxicity rate closest to a target of 33%, graded according to CTC version 2.0

    Toxicity is defined as grade 3, 4 non-hematologic and grade 4 hematologic (neutropenia and thrombocytopenia) toxicity. The continual reassessment method (CRM) will be used.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BMS-214662 and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific and Unspecified Childhood Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 1 site 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?

The sponsor lists 32 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. 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 23 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MTD, defined as the dose level among the 9 levels studied having toxicity rate closest to a target of 33%, graded according to CTC version 2.0 (time frame: Up to 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 23 Jan 2013.
