About this study

Official title: A Phase I Dose Escalation Study of Oral SB939 When Administered Thrice Weekly (Every Other Day) for 3 Weeks in a 4-week Cycle in Patients With Advanced Malignancies

This is an open label, dose escalation study with 3 arms (Arms A, B, and C). Arm A will assess the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of SB939 in cohorts of patients with advanced solid tumors. Arm B will assess the safety and tolerability of escalating doses in cohorts of patients with advanced hematologic malignancies. Arm C will assess the safety and tolerability of SB939 in combination with standard azacitidine therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of SB939, administered orally every other day 3 times a week for 3 consecutive weeks, repeated every 4 weeks, either alone (Arms A and B), or in combination with azacitidine therapy in (Arm C).

    Measured: Throughout the study

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To establish the maximum tolerated dose and a recommended phase II dose of SB939 as a single agent when administered every other day 3 times a week for 3 consecutive weeks, repeated every 4 weeks

    Measured: Throughout the study

  2. To determine the dose limiting toxicities of SB939

    Measured: Throughout the study

  3. To determine the pharmacokinetic profile of SB939

    Measured: Throughout the study

  4. To assess histone acetylation in PBMC and other biomarkers

    Measured: Throughout the study

  5. To document anti-tumor activity

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SB939 and Azacitidine in people with Solid Tumors and Hematologic Malignancies, run by S*BIO at 5 sites in 2 countries.

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 9 inclusion and 0 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 23 Apr 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Singapore, United States. 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 assess the safety and tolerability of SB939, administered orally every other day 3 times a week for 3 consecutive weeks, repeated every 4 weeks, either alone (Arms A and B), or in combination with azacitidine therapy in (Arm C). (time frame: Throughout the study). 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 23 Apr 2012.
