About this study

Official title: An Open Label Trial of Perifosine in Patients Currently Being Treated on Perifosine Trials in Solid Tumors or Multiple Myeloma

This is an open label trial for patients currently enrolled in other perifosine trials.

Read the detailed description

Perifosine is an oral anticancer agent with limited toxicity and a novel mechanism of action that is distinctly different from cytotoxic chemotherapies. It has been shown to inhibit and otherwise modify signaling through a number of pathways including Akt, p21, and JNK. Perifosine has been tested in Phase I and Phase II settings in a variety of dosing schedules including daily, weekly, and daily following a loading dose. In general, it has been well tolerated with dose-related nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and fatigue being the most commonly observed toxicities.

Perifosine has induced partial responses or stable disease in solid tumors including but not limited to renal cell, sarcoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Perifosine is currently being studied in multiple diseases as a single agent as well as in combination with other cancer therapies. As studies are closed there are patients that have achieved a partial response or stable disease.

What participants receive

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

  • PerifosineDrug

    Also called D-21266, KRX-0401

    All patients should continue therapy on their current regimen until disease progression. The trial specific intervention is specified in the arms descriptions.

  • TrastuzumabDrug

    Trastuzumab was given 6mg/kg i.v. daily or 2 mg/kg i.v. on day 1, 8 and 15.

  • TamoxifenDrug

    Endocrine therapy with tamoxifen will be evaluated in combination with perifosine to determine if the combination overcomes resistance to endocrine therapy .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Perifosine, Trastuzumab and Tamoxifen in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer and Solid Tumors, run by AEterna Zentaris.

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 3 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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 evaluate the safety and tolerability (time frame: 12 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?
