About this study

In this open-label randomised phase I trial, bortezomib will be administrated to 2 groups of 10 patients with MM who have inclusion criteria use the extended 2nd line indication, either intravenously (group 1 = 10 patients) or subcutaneously (group 2 = 10 patients). The schedule of administration of bortezomib will be the following : 1.3 mg per square meter of body-surface area twice weekly for 2 weeks, followed by 1 week without treatment, for up to eight cycles, either IV (group 1) or SC (group 2).

The primary objective is to characterize the pharmacokinetics of the 2 routes of administration.

The secondary objectives are to characterize the pharmacodynamics (20S proteasome inhibition in whole blood), toxicity, including cardiac safety, and efficacy of the 2 routes of administration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing bortezomib in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Nantes University Hospital at 3 sites in France.

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 9 inclusion and 18 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 4 Feb 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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?

characterize the pharmacokinetics of the 2 routes of administration.. 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 NCT00291538, 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 4 Feb 2009.
