Trial summary

RATIONALE: Bortezomib and celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving bortezomib together with celecoxib may kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase I Trial of Bortezomib (VELCADE™) and Celecoxib in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

RATIONALE: Bortezomib and celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving bortezomib together with celecoxib may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib and celecoxib in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bortezomib and celecoxib in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Secondary

  • Determine the overall pattern of toxicities associated with this combination, including the emergence of any cumulative toxicities, during multiple courses of this regimen.
  • Describe the response rate and duration of response or disease stability during therapy in the subset of patients with measurable disease.
  • Assess changes in plasma/serum sphingosine-1-phosphate, ceramide, and other markers of the apoptotic pathway before and during therapy.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive bortezomib IV on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 or days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29 and oral celecoxib twice daily on days 1-21 or 1-42. Courses repeat every 21 or 42 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are evaluated every 2 courses. Patients achieving complete response (CR) receive 2 additional courses of therapy beyond CR.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of bortezomib and celecoxib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 36 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing bortezomib and celecoxib in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by Medical University of South Carolina 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 10 Apr 2018. 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. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00290680, 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 10 Apr 2018.
