About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Multi-center, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Study of PRLX 93936 Administered Intravenously Daily for Five Days Followed by a 23-Day Rest Period in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of PRLX 93936 and see what kind of effect it has on patients and their cancer. This study will also determine the highest dose of PRLX 93936 that can be given without causing adverse side effects and the dose of PRLX 93936 that should be used in future studies.

Read the detailed description

This study will assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PRLX 93936 administered intravenously over 1 hr daily for 5 days in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients will be evaluated prior to dosing, during dosing and following dosing, on a 28-day cycle. Tumor response will be evaluated every other cycle.

Three patients will be assigned per dose level until the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) is reached or a a Dose-Limited Toxicity (DLT) is encountered. Sequential cohorts of three patients will be treated with escalating doses until the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) is reached.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PRLX 93936 in people with Cancer, run by Prolexys Pharmaceuticals 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 23 inclusion and 12 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 5 Jan 2012. 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?

Clinical laboratory tests (time frame: Weekly). The study lists 4 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 5 Jan 2012.
