Who cannot join

  • Subjects who meet any of the following criteria are not eligible to participate in this study:
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), clinical evidence of active viral hepatitis B or C, or severe/uncontrolled infections or intercurrent illness that is unrelated to the tumor.
  • Prior surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, biologic therapy, or investigational agents within 4 weeks prior to the first infusion and prior immunotherapy, hormonal, or molecular-targeted therapy within 2 weeks prior to the first infusion. All acute toxicities related to prior treatments should have resolved.
  • Active malignancy other than the present diagnosis within the past 24 months (except treated non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix).
  • QT interval corrected for rate (QTc) greater than 450 msec on the electrocardiogram (ECG) obtained at Screening (Day -21 to 0) using the Fridericia method for QTc analysis.
  • History or substance or alcohol abuse which, in the opinion of the investigator, would prohibit participation in the study.
  • History of clinically significant cardiac impairment, congestive heart failure, New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac disease classification Class II, unstable angina, or myocardial infarction during the previous 6 months, or serious cardiac arrhythmia.

What participants receive

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

  • E6201Drug

    E6201 Part A (Dose Escalation): Intravenous (IV) infusion administered over 30 minutes once weekly for 3 weeks (Days 1, 8, and 15). The first 3 to 6 subjects of the first cohort will receive 20 mg/m^2/week for a cycle of 3 weeks followed by a 1-week rest period. Subsequent dose escalations may increase at increments of 100% until two Grade 2 toxicities or 1 dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) are observed in a dose group. Thereafter, doses will be increased in increments of 50% or less until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. Part B (MTD Expansion): After the MTD is determined in Part A, 15 additional subjects will continue to receive cycles at the MTD.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicities as determined in Part A.

    Measured: During Cycle 1: 28 days

  2. Safety parameters (adverse events, laboratory data, vital signs, electrocardiogram data, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group [ECOG] scores, and physical and neurological exams).

    Measured: During Parts A and B: approximately 26 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pharmacokinetics

    Measured: Obtained prior to infusion on Day 1 of Cycle 1 (Baseline), during the infusion at 15 and 30 minutes (just prior to end of infusion), then after the end of infusion at 5 and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 4, 8, 24, and 48 hours on Days 1 and 15 of Cycle 1 only.

  2. Pharmacodynamics

    Measured: Prior to and post-infusion at timepoints between Days 1 and 15, and on Day 1 of Cycle 2

  3. Preliminary efficacy: Tumor assessments of objective response rate based on review of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans using Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors.

    Measured: Performed at baseline and every other cycle.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing E6201 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Eisai Inc. at 12 sites 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 18 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 14 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites 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 and dose-limiting toxicities as determined in Part A. (time frame: During Cycle 1: 28 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Oct 2022.
