About this study

Official title: A Phase I Trial of Lapatinib in Combination With Carboplatin in Patients With Platinum Sensitive Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • lapatinibDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. MTD of Lapatinib measured in cohorts of 3-6 patients each

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Clinical response rate defined by RECIST and CA125 values

  2. EGRF, ErbB-2, PTEN and K-ras expression in tissue samples

  3. Correlate serum levels of Lapatinib with AE's & efficacy

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted24 Apr 2006 (estimated)
  2. Study startNov 2005
  3. Primary completionMar 2007
  4. Study completionApr 2007

Why it stopped: Due to unacceptable non-dose limiting toxicities, excessive treatment delays and limited clinical responses.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing lapatinib in people with Ovarian Cancer, run by University of Alabama at Birmingham at 2 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 11 inclusion and 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 was stopped early (reason given: Due to unacceptable non-dose limiting toxicities, excessive treatment delays and limited clinical responses.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

MTD of Lapatinib measured in cohorts of 3-6 patients each. 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 NCT00317434, 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 15 Dec 2009.
