Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol SpecificPhase 1NCT00047242
UCN-01 and Irinotecan in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
A Phase 1 study testing 7-hydroxystaurosporine and irinotecan hydrochloride in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: UCN-01 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining UCN-01 with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: The Pharmacokinetic and Safety Profile of UCN-01 in Combination With Irinotecan in Solid Tumors (Primarily Lung, Ovarian and GI Cancers)
RATIONALE: UCN-01 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining UCN-01 with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining UCN-01 with irinotecan in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose of UCN-01 and irinotecan in patients with advanced solid tumors, primarily lung, ovarian, and gastrointestinal tumors.
- Determine the acute and chronic toxicity profile of this regimen in these patients.
- Determine the pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients.
- Determine, preliminarily, the anti-tumor effect of this regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients receive UCN-01 IV over 3 hours on day 1 and irinotecan IV over 90 minutes on days 1 and 8. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of UCN-01 and irinotecan until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. At least 6 patients are treated at the recommended phase II dose.
Patients are followed at 1 month.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 20-30 patients will be accrued for this study within 7-15 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing 7-hydroxystaurosporine and irinotecan hydrochloride in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins 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?
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 9 Aug 2010. 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.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00047242, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 9 Aug 2010.
