About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Topotecan in Combination With Docetaxel in Patients With Refractory and/or Advanced Solid Tumors

This phase I study will characterize the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of weekly bolus Topotecan when administered in combination with to different dosing regimens of docetaxel. We will also evaluate any anti-tumor activity of the combination regimen.

Read the detailed description

Upon determination of eligibility, patients will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms:

For ever 2 patients treated, 1 will receive treatment A (Paclitaxel + Carboplatin + Gemcitabine) and 1 will receive treatment B (Gemcitabine + Vinorelbine). The study is not blinded so both the patient and the doctor will know which treatment has been assigned.

Upon determination of eligibility, patients will be receive:

  • Docetaxel + Topotecan

In order to determine the most appropriate dosing regimen to progress into future phase II trials, two different dosing schedules of Topotecan and docetaxel will be utilized.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Topotecan and Docetaxel in people with Cancer, run by SCRI Development Innovations, LLC.

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 8 inclusion and 6 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 23 Jan 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Determine maximum tolerated dose of drug combination. 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 23 Jan 2009.
