About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study to Determine the Safety, Pharmacology, and Pharmacodynamics of JNJ26854165 in Subjects With Advanced Stage and/or Refractory Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of JNJ-26854165 (a new drug in development for cancer) in patients with advanced or refractory solid tumors on the maximum dose tolerated by these patients.

Read the detailed description

JNJ-26854165 is a new drug in development and belongs to a class of drugs that act on the specific protein present in cells. It may stop cancer cells from growing or kill cancer cells. In this study, the safety (the effect on the body) of the JNJ-26854165 in patients with advanced or refractory solid tumors will be examined. The effect (if any) of JNJ-26854165 on the disease will be assessed throughout the study. The maximum dose tolerated by these patients will be determined.

The dose of JNJ 26854165 will start low and will be increased during the study. The drug will be taken by mouth every day in each 21-day cycle. The dose each patient receives will be assigned at enrollment. Patients who enroll at a later time may receive a higher dose. If patients do not have severe side effects at a certain dose level, the next group of 3 to 6 patients will get a higher dose. The dose will increase until some patients have severe side effects. The dose will be then decreased and 3 to 6 patients will receive the highest amount of drug where non-severe side effects were observed.

The amount of JNJ 26854165 in the blood will be measured and the effect of JNJ 26854165 on the disease will also be monitored. The effect of food on the absorption, break down and elimination of the drug will be studied in some patients. At some dose levels, the possible interaction of JNJ 26854165 with medications frequently used in cancer patients will be examined and patients at these dose levels will be asked to take a single dose of three additional drugs (dextromethorphan hydrobromide (30mg), tolbutamide (250mg), and midazolam (5mg) "cocktail") on 2 study days, which will all be supplied by the study doctor.

Patients will be screened for eligibility up to 4 weeks before the study drug is administered. During Cycle 1 patients will be observed as inpatients for at least 12 hours after administration of the drug on 3 or 4 days and will be required to visit the study site on 2 additional days. One additional visit is required for patients in whom the food effect or interaction with other medications will be examined. During Cycle 2, patients are required to visit the study center on 2 days. During all cycles after Cycle 2, patients are required to visit the study center on 1 day. Fourteen days after the last dose of JNJ-26854165, the patient will be invited for a follow-up visit which will include tests for safety and the effect of the drug on the disease. The proposed starting dose of JNJ-26854165 is 4 mg/day as a single oral dose. JNJ26854165 will be provided in a glass vial with tear-off cap placed in a child resistant pouch so that the drug may be taken at home. Patients will take JNJ-26854165 each day while in the study. Treatment may continue as long as there is benefit and there are no unacceptable side effects as assessed by the study doctor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-26854165 in people with Neoplasms, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 Mar 2010. 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?

Determine the safety of JNJ-26854165 and the maximum tolerated dose in patients with advanced stage or refractory solid tumors.. 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 26 Mar 2010.
