About this study

Official title: A Phase I Dose Escalation Study of MK-8033 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a first-in-human trial to establish the safety, tolerability, Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D), pharmacodynamic, and clinical activity of MK-8033.

Parts A and B of the study will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and RP2D. Part C of the study will be a single panel crossover study to determine the effect of omeprazole, a gastric pH modifier, on the pharmacokinetics of MK-8033.

What participants receive

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

  • Comparator: MK-8033Drug

    MK-8033 will be administered as an oral formulation in sequentially rising dose levels starting at 50 mg and continuing at 100% dose increments until dose level 4 (800 mg total daily dose). Dose levels 5 to 11 will be escalated at ~40% dose increments until 3000mg (total daily dose). The daily dose of MK-8033 will be divided into two equal doses. MK-8033 will be administered in a first cycle of 14 days (continuous drug administration from Day 1 through Day 14), followed by a 1 week drug holiday (Cycle 1, Day 15 through Day 21). Subsequent cycles of MK-8033 will be administered for 14 days (Cycles 2 to 4) and 28 days (Cycle 5 and beyond).

    Enrollment in Parts A and B has been completed.

  • Comparator: MK-8033 +/- omeprazoleDrug

    Part C will occur at only one of the investigational sites.

    In Cycle 1, patients will be randomized to one of two treatment sequences, A/B or B/A, over two treatment periods. Treatment A: 770 mg MK-8033 twice daily with co-administration of 20 mg omeprazole once daily. Treatment B: 770 mg MK-8033 twice daily. After Cycle 1 is complete, patients may continue to receive MK-8033 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

    Enrollment for Part C has been suspended.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability of MK-8033 based on drug-related dose limiting toxicity.

    Measured: for the entire duration of study (27 months)

  2. Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) based on safety, tumor pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics

    Measured: for the entire duration of study (27 months)

  3. Plasma area under the curve (AUC) for F2 formulation alone or in combination with omeprazole

    Measured: Day 1-21

  4. Safety and tolerability of MK-8033 F2 formulation alone or in combination with omeprazole based on incidence of adverse experiences

    Measured: Day 1-21

  5. Tumor Pharmacodynamics (PD): phospho-c-Met (MET or MNNG HOS Transforming gene) Levels (Parts A & B)

    Measured: Cycle 1 pre-dose & Day 12

  6. Tumor PD: phospho-Akt (Protein Kinase B) Levels (Parts A & B)

    Measured: Cycle 1 pre-dose & Day 12

  7. Tumor PD: phospho-MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) Levels (Parts A & B)

    Measured: Cycle 1 pre-dose & Day 12

  8. Bone PD: Cross-Linked N-telopeptides of Type I collagen (NTx) Levels (Parts A & B)

    Measured: Baseline, Cycle 1 Day 8, & Cycle 3 Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Comparator: MK-8033 and Comparator: MK-8033 +/- omeprazole in people with Advanced Cancer, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 2 inclusion and 8 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 26 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Safety and tolerability of MK-8033 based on drug-related dose limiting toxicity. (time frame: for the entire duration of study (27 months)). The study lists 8 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 NCT00559182, 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 26 Jul 2022.
