Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST)Phase 2NCT00633295
Phase II Study Aiming to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Nilotinib Patients With Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) Resistant or Intolerant to Imatinib and or to 2nd Line Tyrosine Kinas (TK) Inhibitor
A Phase 2 study testing AMN107- NILOTINIB in people with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST), run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 3 sites in Israel.
Trial summary
The mainstay of therapy for GISTs is surgical resection, however, recurrence is almost inevitable in high-risk tumors and secondary surgery or other salvage therapy has yielded poor outcome. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: An Open-label, Multi-center Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Nilotinib in Adult Patients With Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors Resistant or Intolerant to Imatinib and or to 2nd Line Tyrosine Kinas (TK) Inhibitor
The mainstay of therapy for GISTs is surgical resection, however, recurrence is almost inevitable in high-risk tumors and secondary surgery or other salvage therapy has yielded poor outcome. The median survival for patients with unresectable or metastatic GIST is approximately 20 months, and for patients with local recurrence it is 9 to 12 months. Responses to chemotherapy have been at best 5%. The introduction of imatinib has dramatically changed the prognosis of these patients yielding response rates between 41% and 71% and an overall clinical benefit (tumor responses plus stable disease) ranging between 73% and 90%.
However, resistance to imatinib may develop and represents a further clinical challenge. Sunitinib has recently been approved by the FDA for patients whose disease has progressed or who are intolerant to imatinib therapy. Patients with tumor progressing on sunitinib or another 2nd line agent have limited therapeutic alternatives. Reinstitution of imatinib, if possible, is considered an acceptable option for these patients because it may slow the rate of disease progression even in the setting of prior imatinib failure; however a more optimal 3rd line treatment is needed. AMN107 is a novel aminopyrimidine, available as an oral formulation that is ATP -competitive inhibitor of BCR-ABL,more potent than Imatinib. It inhibits proliferation and autophosphorylation of 32 out of 33 BCR-ABL point mutations. In addition AMN107 also inhibits PDGFRα,PDGFRβ, and KIT. Preliminary data from an ongoing Phase I study in imatinib-resistant GIST patients (CAMN107A2103) indicate that AMN107 alone (400 mg BID) and in combination with imatinib (imatinib 400 mg BID plus AMN107 200 mg QD and 400 mg QD) is well tolerated in this pre-treated patients.

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 3 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 22 Jun 2017. 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 Israel. 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 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?
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 evaluate the efficacy of nilotinib in GIST patients resistant or intolerant to imatinib and or 2nd line TK inhibitor as measured by tumor up take of FDG PET quantitated by maximum (time frame: 6 months). 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 22 Jun 2017.
