Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of XL888 in subjects with solid tumors. XL888 is a potent and selective inhibitor of HSP90, a key component of a molecular chaperone complex that promotes the conformational maturation and stabilization of diverse client proteins.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of XL888 in Subjects With Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of XL888 in subjects with solid tumors. XL888 is a potent and selective inhibitor of HSP90, a key component of a molecular chaperone complex that promotes the conformational maturation and stabilization of diverse client proteins. Many HSP90 client proteins play critical roles in signaling pathways implicated in tumor cell growth, proliferation, and survival.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose of oral administration of XL888 when administered on an intermittent schedule to adults with solid tumors

    Measured: Assessed at several visits during weeks 1 through 4 of the first cycle and approximately every other week each cycle thereafter

  2. Plasma pharmacokinetics of oral administration of XL888 when administered on an intermittent schedule

    Measured: Assessed at several visits during weeks 1 through 4 of the first cycle and approximately once every four weeks each cycle thereafter

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pharmacodynamic effects of XL888 on both tumor tissue and non-tumor tissue

    Measured: Assessed at specific visits during the first cycle; mandatory blood samples collected once every four weeks every cycle thereafter with optional tissue samples

  2. Estimate renal elimination of XL888

    Measured: Assessed during the first cycle after three weeks of dosing

  3. Exploratory: To evaluate preliminary antitumor activity of XL888

    Measured: Assessed every eight weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing XL888 in people with Cancer, run by Exelixis at 2 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 13 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2015. 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decision). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose of oral administration of XL888 when administered on an intermittent schedule to adults with solid tumors (time frame: Assessed at several visits during weeks 1 through 4 of the first cycle and approximately every other week each cycle thereafter). 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 21 Aug 2015.
