About this study

Official title: An Open-Labeled, Non-Randomized Phase I Study of Alvocidib (Flavopiridol) Administered With Oxaliplatin and Fluorouracil/Leucovorin in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of alvocidib when given together with oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and leucovorin calcium in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as alvocidib, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and leucovorin calcium, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Alvocidib may also make tumor cells more sensitive to chemotherapy. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug may kill more tumor cells.

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of flavopiridol when given in combination with oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and leucovorin calcium in patients with advanced solid tumors.

II. Determine the pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients. III. Determine, preliminarily, the therapeutic activity of this regimen in these patients.

IV. Determine the dose-limiting toxicity and the recommended phase II dose of flavopiridol when administered with this regimen in these patients.

  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of this regimen in these patients. VI. Correlate p21, p53, and apoptotic markers with response in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a non-randomized, open-label, dose-escalation study of flavopiridol.

Patients receive alvocidib intravenously (IV) over 1 hour, oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours, leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours, and fluorouracil IV continuously over 48 hours on days 1, 15, and 29. Courses repeat every 42 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of alvocidib 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. Once the MTD is determined, the cohort is expanded and an additional 10 patients are treated at that dose.

Receives: Drug: alvocidib; Drug: fluorouracil; Drug: oxaliplatin; Drug: leucovorin calcium

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose of biweekly alvocidib when given in conjunction with oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin calcium

    Defined as the dose level immediately preceding the dose where 2 or more patients experienced dose-limiting toxicity.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Dose-limiting toxicity as defined by the occurrence of Grade 4 hematologic toxicity, Grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic toxicity including diarrhea despite antidiarrheal prophylaxis, or any delay in treatment resulting in less than 3 treatments in 6 weeks

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Recommended phase II dose of alvocidib

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing alvocidib, fluorouracil and oxaliplatin 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 35 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 16 Dec 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?

Maximum tolerated dose of biweekly alvocidib when given in conjunction with oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin calcium (time frame: 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 16 Dec 2013.
