About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label, Multicenter, Dose-Escalation Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of a Recombinant Humanized Antibody to Her2 (rhuMAb 2C4) Administered Every 3 Weeks to Subjects With Advanced Solid Malignancies

The purpose of this Phase I study is to test the safety of rhuMAb 2C4 to see what effects (good and bad) it has on patients with certain types of cancer, and also to find the highest dose of rhuMAb that can be given without causing severe side effects. All study participants will be assigned to specific group to evaluate different dosages of rhuMAb 2C4. The study is scheduled to run for up to one year depending on how patients respond to the study treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With an Adverse Event (AE), Serious Adverse Event (SAE), or Death

    For this protocol, an AE is defined any untoward medical occurrence (e.g., sign, symptom, disease, syndrome, intercurrent illness, abnormal laboratory finding) that emerges or worsens relative to pretreatment baseline during the treatment or post-treatment periods, regardless of the suspected cause.

    For this protocol an SAE was defined as any AE that occurred at any dose if:

    • It resulted in death (i.e., the AE caused or led to death),
    • It was life threatening,
    • It required or prolonged inpatient hospitalization,
    • It was disabling,
    • It resulted in a congenital anomaly/birth defect,
    • It may have jeopardized the participant or may have required medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

    The primary cause of death for all reported cases was disease progression, and all of the deaths occurred following study discontinuation, with one death occurring within 4 weeks of the last treatment day.

    Measured: Days 1, 2, 5, 8, and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1, 8, and Week 3, of Cycles 2 and beyond up to 1 year and at the follow-up visit (4 weeks after last infusion)

  2. Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

    Incidence of DLTs defined as any Grade 3 or 4 major organ toxicity according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) Version 2 or any subjectively intolerable toxicity felt by the investigator to be related to rhuMAb 2C4.

    One participant in the 15.0 mg/kg dose group experienced a gastrointestinal hemorrhage on Day 16. This event was judged by the investigator to be related to study drug. The participant recovered in 3 days and continued to receive rhuMAb 2C4 beyond Cycle 2.This was the only DLT reported during the first two treatment cycles.

    Measured: Day 1 of Cycles 1 and 2, and 24 hours after Cycle 2 infusion

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Pharmacokinetic Measurement of Area Under the Curve (AUC)

    Mean rhuMAb 2C4 serum concentrations versus nominal time profiles for the first two treatment cycles are presented for AUC micrograms per milliliters (ug/mL) by day. A one-compartment model was used for the 0.5 mg/kg dose group, and a two-compartment model was used for the 2-15 mg/kg dose groups.

    Measured: Days 1 (predose, 89 minutes following start of infusion and at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose) 2, 5, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1 (predose and 29 minutes following start of infusion) and 8 of Cycle 2

  2. Pharmacokinetic Measurement of Systemic Clearance (CL)

    A one-compartment model was used for the 0.5 mg/kg dose group, and a two-compartment model was used for the 2-15 mg/kg dose groups.

    Measured: Days 1 (predose, 89 minutes from infusion start, at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose), 2, 5, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1 (predose, 29 minutes from infusion start) and 8 of Cycles 2 and beyond until the follow-up visit (4 weeks after the last infusion)

  3. Pharmacokinetic Measurement of Volume of Central Compartment (Vc)

    A one-compartment model was used for the 0.5 mg/kg dose group, and a two-compartment model was used for the 2-15 mg/kg dose groups.

    Measured: Days 1 (predose, 89 minutes from infusion start, at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose), 2, 5, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1 (predose, 29 minutes from infusion start) and 8 of Cycles 2 and beyond until the follow-up visit (4 weeks after the last infusion)

  4. Pharmacokinetic Measurement of Steady-State Volume of Distribution (Vss)

    A one-compartment model was used for the 0.5 mg/kg dose group, and a two-compartment model was used for the 2-15 mg/kg dose groups.

    Measured: Days 1 (predose, 89 minutes from infusion start, at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose), 2, 5, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1 (predose, 29 minutes from infusion start) and 8 of Cycles 2 and beyond until the follow-up visit (4 weeks after the last infusion)

  5. Pharmacokinetic Measurement of Initial Distribution Half-Life (t1/2 Initial)

    A one-compartment model was used for the 0.5 mg/kg dose group, and a two-compartment model was used for the 2-15 mg/kg dose groups.

    Measured: Days 1 (predose, 89 minutes from infusion start, at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose), 2, 5, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1 (predose, 29 minutes from infusion start) and 8 of Cycles 2 and beyond until the follow-up visit (4 weeks after the last infusion)

  6. Pharmacokinetic Measurement of Terminal Half-Life (t1/2 Terminal) in Days

    A one-compartment model was used for the 0.5 mg/kg dose group, and a two-compartment model was used for the 2-15 mg/kg dose groups.

    Measured: Days 1 (predose, 89 minutes from infusion start, at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose), 2, 5, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1 (predose, 29 minutes from infusion start) and 8 of Cycles 2 and beyond until the follow-up visit (4 weeks after the last infusion)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing rhuMAb 2C4 in people with Neoplasms, run by Genentech, Inc. 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 13 inclusion and 16 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 27 Jul 2015. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Jul 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With an Adverse Event (AE), Serious Adverse Event (SAE), or Death (time frame: Days 1, 2, 5, 8, and 15 of Cycle 1; Days 1, 8, and Week 3, of Cycles 2 and beyond up to 1 year and at the follow-up visit (4 weeks after last infusion)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Jul 2015.
