Trial summary

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as FAU, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of FAU in treating patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Intravenously Administered FAU (1-(2'-Deoxy-2'-Fluoro-B-D-arabinofuranosyl) Uracil, NSC#678515) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as FAU, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of FAU in treating patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of FAU in patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma.

II. To determine the dose-limiting toxicity and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of FAU in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To observe the clinical response in patients treated with FAU. II. To characterize the pharmacokinetics of FAU in these patients. III. To explore whether an association exists between pre-treatment 18F-FAU PET standardized uptake value levels and time to tumor progression after treatment with unlabeled FAU.

IV. To estimate the protein levels of thymidylate synthase (TS) in archival tumor tissue samples and to compare them with thymidine kinase (TK) and TS protein levels and TK and TS mRNA levels in fresh tumor tissue samples from patients treated at the MTD.

  1. To explore the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of TS and tumor 18F-FAU uptake.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive FAU IV over 1 hour on days 1-5. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed for 30 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose, defined as the dose at which no more than 1/6 patients develops dose-limiting toxicity, graded by NCI CTCAE version 4.0

    Measured: Up to 28 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical response to FAU, evaluated using the new international criteria proposed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee

    Response will be described by point estimates and exact confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  2. Pharmacokinetics of FAU, including Cmax, Tmax, AUC 0-last, AUC 0-infinity, CL, t1/2, and Vss

    All pharmacokinetic parameters will be summarized with standard descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Days 1 and 22 of course 1 at pre-treatment; at the end of infusion; and following the end of infusion at 15 and 30 minutes and 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 2'-F-ara-deoxyuridine, positron emission tomography and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Adult Grade III Lymphomatoid Granulomatosis and Adult Nasal Type Extranodal NK/T-cell Lymphoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 1 site in United States.

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 37 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 7 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in 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?

Maximum tolerated dose, defined as the dose at which no more than 1/6 patients develops dose-limiting toxicity, graded by NCI CTCAE version 4.0 (time frame: Up to 28 days). 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 7 Jan 2014.
