What participants receive

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

  • belinostatDrug

    Also called PXD101

    300, 600, or 1000 mg/m2 belinostat IV for 5 days every 21 days starting with cycle 1

  • 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)Drug

    Also called 5-FU

    250, 500, 750, or 1000 mg/m2/d of 5-FU starting with cycle 2 onwards in combination with belinostat. Starting on day 2, 5-FU is administered as a continuous 96 hour infusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. to determine the maximum tolerated dose of PXD101 administered in combination with 5-FU

    Measured: throughout the study

  2. to determine whether PXD101 alone can down-regulate thymidylate synthase in patient tumors

    Measured: throughout the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing belinostat and 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) in people with Tumor, run by Valerio Therapeutics at 3 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 25 inclusion and 13 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 8 Jul 2015. 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 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?

to determine the maximum tolerated dose of PXD101 administered in combination with 5-FU (time frame: throughout the study). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Jul 2015.
