What is being measured

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

  1. Phase 1: Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and Discontinuations Due to Adverse Events (AEs)

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is one that: results in death, hospitalization, prolongation of hospitalization, or persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is life-threatening, a congenital anomaly, or other important medical event. Events were graded as 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=life-threatening, or 5=death. The investigator assessed the relationship of each event to the use of study drug as either probably related, possibly related, probably not related or not related. A treatment-emergent adverse event is defined as any adverse event with onset or worsening reported by a subject from the time that the first dose of study drug is administered until 30 days have elapsed following discontinuation of study drug administration. Deaths category included non treatment emergent deaths.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug to 30 days post-last dose. Participants enrolled in the 14/21-day cycle received a mean of 21.7 treatment cycles; participants enrolled in the 21/21-day cycle received a mean of 19.4 treatment cycles.

  2. Phase 1: Number of Participants With DLTs in the Dose Escalation Phase

    DLTs were graded according to NCI CTCAE version 3.0 (grade 1=mild; grade 2=moderate; grade 3=severe; grade 4=life threatening; grade 5=death). Any of the following events, considered possibly or probably related to the administration of navitoclax, were considered a DLT: Grade 4 thrombocytopenia (< 25,000/mm^3); platelet counts < 25,000/mm^3, Grade 2 or higher bleeding associated with thrombocytopenia; all other Grade 3, 4 or 5 adverse events were considered a DLT. Exceptions included: Grade 3, 4 febrile neutropenia less than 7 days; Grade 3, 4 leukopenia; Grade 3, 4 lymphopenia; Grade 3 nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea unless unresponsive to treatment; Grade 2 toxicity that requires dose modification or delay of > 1 week.

    Measured: Cycle 1 (Up to 21 days) plus 7 days

  3. Phase 1: Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) in the Dose Escalation Phase

    The MTD was defined as the dose at which 30% of participants experienced a DLT during the first cycle. DLTs were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 3.0 (grade 1=mild; grade 2=moderate; grade 3=severe; grade 4=life threatening; grade 5=death). Any of the following events, considered possibly or probably related to the administration of navitoclax, were considered a DLT: Grade 4 thrombocytopenia (< 25,000/mm^3); platelet counts < 25,000/mm^3, Grade 2 or higher bleeding associated with thrombocytopenia; all other Grade 3, 4 or 5 adverse events were considered a DLT. Exceptions included: Grade 3, 4 febrile neutropenia less than 7 days; Grade 3, 4 leukopenia; Grade 3, 4 lymphopenia; Grade 3 nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea unless unresponsive to treatment; Grade 2 toxicity that requires dose modification or delay of > 1 week.

    Measured: Cycle 1 (Up to 21 days) plus 7 days

  4. Phase 1: Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RPTD) Determined in the Dose Escalation Phase

    The RPTD was determined based on observed DLTs and/or determination of the MTD in phase 1. (See Outcome Measures 2 and 3 above for definition of DLT and MTD.)

    Measured: Cycle 1 (Up to 21 days) plus 7 days

  5. Phase 1: Time to Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Navitoclax

    Measured: Cycle 1 Days 1 and 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  6. Phase 1: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Days 1 and 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  7. Phase 1: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to Hour 8 (AUC8)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Days 1 and 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  8. Phase 1: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to Hour 24 (AUC24)

    The AUC24 was derived and reported from Cycle 1 Day 1 values and Cycle 1 Day 14 values; the pre-dose value taken on Day 14 was utilized as 24-hour timepoint on Day 14 to generate AUC24 for Day 14.

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours post-dose; Cycle 1 Days 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8

  9. Phase 1: Cmax/Dose

    Measured: Cycle 1 Days 1 and 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  10. Phase 1: AUC8/Dose

    Measured: Cycle 1 Days 1 and 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  11. Phase 1: AUC24/Dose

    The AUC24 was derived and reported from Cycle 1 Day 1 values and Cycle 1 Day 14 values; the pre-dose value taken on Day 14 was utilized as 24-hour timepoint on Day 14 to generate AUC24 for Day 14.

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours post-dose; Cycle 1 Days 14: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8

  12. Phase 1: Terminal Phase Elimination Rate Constant (β) for Navitoclax

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  13. Phase 1: Terminal Phase Elimination Half-life (t1/2) of Navitoclax

    For t1/2, the harmonic mean and psuedo-standard deviation are used.

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose

  14. Phase 2: Number of Participants With TEAEs, SAEs, and Discontinuations Due to AEs

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is one that: results in death, hospitalization, prolongation of hospitalization, or persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is life-threatening, a congenital anomaly, or other important medical event. Events were graded as 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=life-threatening, or 5=death. The investigator assessed the relationship of each event to the use of study drug as either probably related, possibly related, probably not related or not related. A treatment-emergent adverse event is defined as any adverse event with onset or worsening reported by a subject from the time that the first dose of study drug is administered until 30 days have elapsed following discontinuation of study drug administration. Deaths category included non treatment emergent deaths.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug to 30 days post-last dose. Participants enrolled in Phase 2 received a mean of 15.6 treatment cycles.

  15. Phase 2: Dose-Normalized Plasma Concentrations After Navitoclax Once Daily Dosing

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1: 4-8 h postdose; Cycle 1 Day 15: predose; Cycle 3 Day 1: predose, 4-8 h postdose; Cycle 5 Day 1: predose, 4-8 h postdose; Cycle 7 Day 1: predose, 4-8 h postdose; Cycle 9 Day 1: predose, 4-8 h postdose

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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Jun 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Phase 1: Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and Discontinuations Due to Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: From first dose of study drug to 30 days post-last dose. Participants enrolled in the 14/21-day cycle received a mean of 21.7 treatment cycles; participants enrolled in the 21/21-day cycle received a mean of 19.4 treatment cycles.). The study lists 15 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00481091, 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.
