About this study

Official title: A Phase IA/IB, Two Arm, Multi-center, Open-label, Dose Escalation Study of Oral LBH589 Alone and in Combination With IV Docetaxel and Oral Prednisone in Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer (HRPC)

This is a parallel, two-arm, open-label, multicenter phase IA/IB study of LBH589 (oral formulation) alone and in combination with docetaxel in patients with progressing hormone refractory prostate cancer. This study is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose of LBH589 as a single agent and in combination with docetaxel and prednisone 5 mg two times a day , and to characterize the safety, tolerability, biologic activity and pharmacokinetic profile

What is being measured

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

  1. • To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of esca-lating doses of LBH589 in adult men with HRPC.

    Measured: at study start and at study end

  2. • To determine the MTD and DLT of escalating doses of LBH589 in combination with a stan-dard dose of docetaxel q3wks and daily Prednisone® in adult men with HRPC.

    Measured: at study start and at study end

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. • To characterize the safety and tolerability of LBH589 alone and in combination with do-cetaxel and Prednisone® including acute and chronic toxicities

    Measured: at study start and at study end

  2. • To characterize the single-dose and multidose pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of LBH589 alone and in combination with docetaxel and Prednisone®. To characterize the PK profiles of docetaxel alone and in combination with LBH589.

    Measured: at study start and at study end

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LBH589 in people with Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 5 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 19 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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: Because of a strategic decision by Novartis). 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?

• To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of esca-lating doses of LBH589 in adult men with HRPC. (time frame: at study start and at study end). 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 19 Dec 2020.
