About this study

Official title: Clinical Pharmacology In The Elderly: Prospective Evaluation Of The Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacogenetics And Pharmacodynamics Of CPT-11 And Aging

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Aging may affect the way these drugs work.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to determine the relationship between aging and the effectiveness of irinotecan in treating patients who have solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine whether there is a relationship between the pharmacokinetic characteristics of irinotecan and aging in patients with non-hematologic malignancies.
  • Determine whether there is a relationship between the toxic effects of this drug and aging in these patients.
  • Determine whether the relationship between genotype (UGT1A1, CYP3A, and other relevant genes) and phenotype (pharmacokinetics, toxicity) is affected by aging in these patients treated with this drug.
  • Analyze data collected on the co-morbid conditions and concurrent medications in these patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to age (18 to 55 vs 70 and over).

Patients receive irinotecan IV over 90 minutes once weekly for 4 weeks. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed for survival.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 140 patients (70 per stratum) will be accrued for this study within 3.5 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing irinotecan hydrochloride in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology at 47 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 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 47 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall survival (time frame: Up to 10 years). 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 6 Jul 2016.
