Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Advanced, histologically-confirmed solid tumors refractory to standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists
  • Karnofsky performance status of at least 60% and estimated survival of at least two months
  • Serum creatinine =< 1.5 mg/dl or creatinine clearance >= 60 ml/min
  • ANC >= 1,500/ul
  • Platelets >= 100,000/ul
  • Bilirubin =< 1.5 mg/dl
Show all 18Show fewer
  • SGOT and SGPT =< 2.5 times the upper limits of normal
  • Prior to entry on study, a patient must be at least four weeks from prior chemotherapy (six weeks from nitrosoureas, 8 weeks from UCN-01) and have recovered from all side effects of prior therapy; there is no limit on the number of prior chemotherapy regimens
  • Written, voluntary, informed consent of the patient must be obtained in compliance with institutional, state and federal guidelines
  • Patients with brain metastases are INELIGIBLE for this study
  • Due to concerns regarding possible drug interactions, patients with HIV taking anti-retroviral medications are INELIGIBLE
  • Pregnant patients and patients who are breast feeding are INELIGIBLE; all patients of child-bearing potential, both male and female, must be advised to practice adequate contraception; premenopausal women must have a negative pregnancy test prior to entry on this study
  • Patients with any non-malignant intercurrent illness (e.g. cardiovascular, pulmonary, or central nervous system disease) which is either poorly controlled with currently available treatment, or which is of such severity that the investigators deem it inappropriate to treat the patient on this protocol are INELIGIBLE
  • Patients currently being treated for a severe infection or who are recovering from major surgery are INELIGIBLE until recovery is deemed complete by the investigators
  • All patients must have evaluable disease; the presence of measurable disease is NOT required for this phase I study; if unidimensionally measurable disease is present, baseline measurements of up to 3 indicator lesions should be made no earlier than four weeks prior to the first cycle of chemotherapy; pleural effusions, ascites and bone metastases are not considered measurable
  • CBC, differential count, platelet count, and blood chemistries should be done no earlier than 72 hours prior to each cycle of chemotherapy
  • Except for 4 weeks for tumor measurements and 72 hours for specified blood work, pretreatment tests should be done no earlier than two weeks prior to the first cycle of chemotherapy
  • Once the MTD has been established, an additional10 patients will be accrued to obtain pre- and post-treatment biopsy material in order to validate the molecular targets of E7389 in man; therefore, to maximize likelihood of obtaining tissue from patients treated in the expanded MTD cohort, only patients with tumors appropriate for repeated biopsy are eligible during this stage of the study

About this study

Official title: Phase I Trial of E7389 (Halichondrin B Analog) (NSC# 707389) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of E7389 in treating patients who have advanced 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

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of E7389 administered as an IV bolus over 1-2 minutes weekly for 3 weeks.

II. To describe the toxicities of E7389. III. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of E7389. IV. To determine the in vivo anti-mitotic activity of E7389 by cell cycle analysis and immunohistochemistry in pre- and post-treatment tumor biopsies.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation, multicenter study.

Patients receive E7389 IV over 1-2 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for at least 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of E7389 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which no more than 1 of 6 patients experiences dose-limiting toxicity.

Being tested
eribulin mesylate, pharmacological study, laboratory biomarker analysis

What is being measured

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

  1. MTD of eribulin mesylate defined as the highest dose tested in which no more than 1 of first 6 patients evaluated for toxicity experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) as assessed by NCI CTC version 2.0

    Summarized in terms of type (organ affected or laboratory determination such as absolute neutrophil count), severity, time of onset (i.e., course number), duration, and reversibility or outcome. Tables will be created to summarize these toxicities and side effects by dose and by cycle.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pharmacokinetics of eribulin mesylate

    The pharmacokinetic data will be analyzed using compartmental and non-compartmental models for each patient.

    Measured: At baseline and at the first and third dose of treatment

  2. In vivo anti-mitotic activity of E7389 by cell cycle analysis and immunohistochemistry

    Measured: At pre- and post-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing eribulin mesylate, pharmacological study and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Unspecified Adult 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 18 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 7 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 of eribulin mesylate defined as the highest dose tested in which no more than 1 of first 6 patients evaluated for toxicity experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) as assessed by NCI CTC version 2.0 (time frame: 28 days). 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 7 Jan 2013.
