Trial summary

The treatment of cancer often involves the use of more than one drug at the same time. In this study, patients are treated with the already marketed drug paclitaxel (administered every 3 weeks by infusion)and with the investigational drug CHR-2797 (given orally, once daily).

Who cannot join

  • Anti-cancer therapy including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy, immunotherapy or use of other investigational agents within the 4 weeks prior to first dose of medication in this trial or within a longer period, depending on the defined characteristics of the agent e.g. 6 weeks for nitrosurea or mitomycin.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Dose-escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of the Addition of the Aminopeptidase Inhibitor CHR-2797 to Paclitaxel in Patients With Advanced or Refractory Tumours

The treatment of cancer often involves the use of more than one drug at the same time. In this study, patients are treated with the already marketed drug paclitaxel (administered every 3 weeks by infusion)and with the investigational drug CHR-2797 (given orally, once daily). The purpose of this study is to evaluate if it is safe to administer these two drugs together, and how well the combination is tolerated by patients. The first patients will receive a 90mg dose of CHR-2797; doses will be increased in subsequent patients, as long as they are adequately tolerated.

What participants receive

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

  • CHR-2797Drug

    Also called Aminopeptidase inhibitor, Proposed INN: tosedostat

    Oral once daily administration of capsules of CHR-2797, to determine safety and tolerability in patients being treated with paclitaxel infusion every 3 weeks for up to 18 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CHR-2797 when administered in combination with paclitaxel.

    Measured: 18 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of the combination of CHR-2797 and paclitaxel and identify any pharmacokinetic interaction between the 2 agents.

    Measured: After 1st and 2nd infusion of paclitaxel

  2. To determine response and response duration, time to progressive disease or treatment failure during combination therapy and in those patients who continued beyond 18 weeks on monotherapy with CHR-2797.

    Measured: Maximum duration of patient treatment ( combination followed by monotherapy) was 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CHR-2797 in people with Solid Tumor, run by Chroma Therapeutics at 2 sites in Netherlands.

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 12 inclusion and 15 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 15 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Netherlands. 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?

To determine the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CHR-2797 when administered in combination with paclitaxel. (time frame: 18 weeks). 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 15 Feb 2012.
