About this study

Official title: Phase 1b Open-Label, Multicenter Clinical Study of the Safety and Activity of Intravenous Administration of SNS-595 in Patients With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies

This study primarily determined the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of vosaroxin (SNS-595) in 2 dose schedules, and assessed the PK profile of vosaroxin and defined a recommended dose regimen for Phase 2 studies. Secondarily the study assessed potential biomarkers and antileukemic activity.

Read the detailed description

Patients assigned to 1 of 2 schedules (A and B) in cohorts of at least 3 patients received vosaroxin (SNS-595) intravenously (IV) for up to 4 cycles: once weekly (Days 1, 8, 15 in Schedule A) or twice weekly (Days 1, 4, 8, 11 in Schedule B). Dose escalation proceeded independently for Schedule A (18 mg/m2 initially) and Schedule B (9 mg/m2 initially) in the absence of Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) based on a modified Fibonacci sequence. The incidence of DLT during Cycle 1 determined the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) allowing for treatment delays of up to 14 days to resolve clinically significant abnormal laboratory values or related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and one dose reduction of 25% in case of above. Patients with stable disease, hematologic improvement, or partial remission with stable blast counts or experiencing clinical benefit in the opinion of the investigator were eligible to receive vosaroxin for up to 4 additional cycles.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Vosaroxin in people with Leukemia, Lymphocytic, Acute and Leukemia, Nonlymphocytic, Acute, run by Sunesis Pharmaceuticals at 5 sites 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 4 inclusion and 14 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 30 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

Safety and tolerability (time frame: 6 months). 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 30 Mar 2017.
