What participants receive

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

  • V930Biological

    V930 - Over a 94 week duration, patients will receive a series of 5 injections (2.5 mg/injection), one every other week. Within 2 minutes of each injection of V930, each patient will be given an EP-IM injection consisting of two 60 msec pulses.

  • V932Biological

    V932 - Over a 94 week duration, patients will receive a series of 5 injections, 6 patients will initially received intramuscular V932 vaccinations at a low dose (0.5x109 vg/injection),and following a safety assessment, up to an additional 35 patients will be treated with the high dose V932 (0.5x1011 vg/injection).

    Measured: Week 22

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine whether V930/V932 can elicit HER-2 specific and CEA specific immune responses measured using an ELISPOT assay

    Measured: Week 22

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing V930 and V932 in people with 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 13 Mar 2015. 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?

To determine the safety and tolerability of V930/V932 followed by EP in cancer patients (time frame: Week 22). 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 NCT00647114, 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 13 Mar 2015.
