About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Trial of Oral Karenitecin® in Patients With Solid Tumors"

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum safe dose of orally administered Karenitecin (BNP1350) in patients with solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

Initially, the safety, side effects and recommended phase 2 dose of oral Karenitecin in patients with advanced solid tumors will be determined.

When the recommended phase 2 dose has been determined, the specified dose will be used to determine if Karenitecin is effective in the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Karenitecin (BNP1350) in people with Carcinoma and Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by BioNumerik Pharmaceuticals, 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 11 inclusion and 8 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 12 Mar 2020. 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?

Overall Safety and determination of MTD, and recommended Phase 2 dose (time frame: throughout study). 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 12 Mar 2020.
