About this study
Official title: A Phase I Dose Escalation Study of MK-2206 in Combination With Standard Doses of Selected Chemotherapies or Targeted Agents in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and tolerability of several dose levels of MK-2206 in combination with chemotherapy and targeted therapy agents in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
The primary hypotheses are that administration of MK-2206 in combination with either carboplatin + paclitaxel, docetaxel, or erlotinib in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors will have acceptable tolerability, a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) rate of ≤30%, plasma exposure and pharmacodynamics that exceed target thresholds, and allow for definition of a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in each of the 3 combinations.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) During Cycle 1
A DLT was any of the following deemed drug related by investigator and graded using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 criteria: Grade (G)4 hematologic toxicity lasting ≥7 days; G4 thrombocytopenia; G3 or 4 febrile neutropenia and/or infection requiring treatment; G3, 4, 5 non-hematologic toxicity(with the exception of G3 nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, or hyperglycemia that as a result of inadequate compliance with supportive care measures; alopecia, inadequately treated hypersensitivity reactions G3 elevated transaminases of ≤1 week in duration); adverse experience (AE) leading to dose reduction; unresolved toxicity causing ≥3 week delay in treatment; ≥G3 hyperglycemia; persistent increases in QTc interval; clinically significant bradycardia; and missing MK-2206 doses due to toxicity. The number of participants who experienced a DLT is presented.
Measured: Cycle 1 (Up to 21 days)
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of MK-2206 Administered Every Other Day (QOD) in Combination With Carboplatin and Paclitaxel
Participants received MK-2206 (45 or 60 mg) administered PO on Days 1, 3, 5, and 7 in combination with carboplatin AUC 6 and paclitaxel 200 mg/m^2 administered IV on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The MTD was determined by the number of participants who experienced a dose limiting toxicity (DLT). DLT was defined using the NCI CTCAE version 3.0 criteria. See primary DLT outcome measure for the DLT definition. The MTD was defined as the dose level, at which the percentage of patients who experienced a DLT rate in Cycle 1 that was closest to 30%. A minimum of 13 participants were required to be enrolled per dose to calculate DLT. If the DLT threshold or enrollment quota per dose were not reached then the MTD could not be determined.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and tolerability of several dose levels of MK-2206 in combination with chemotherapy and targeted therapy agents in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
The primary hypotheses are that administration of MK-2206 in combination with either carboplatin + paclitaxel, docetaxel, or erlotinib in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors will have acceptable tolerability, a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) rate of ≤30%, plasma exposure and pharmacodynamics that exceed target thresholds, and allow for definition of a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in each of the 3 combinations.

MTD of MK-2206 Administered QOD in Combination With Erlotinib
Time frame: Cycle 1 (up to 21 days)
Participants received MK-2206 45 mg administered PO every other day (Days 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19 and 21) in combination with Erlotinib (100 or 150 mg) administered PO once every day of each 21-day cycle. The MTD was determined by the number of participants who experienced a DLT. DLT was defined using the NCI CTCAE version 3.0 criteria. See primary DLT outcome measure for the DLT definition. The MTD was defined as the dose level, at which the percentage of patients who experienced a DLT rate in Cycle 1 that was closest to 30%. A minimum of 13 participants were required to be enrolled per dose to calculate DLT. If the DLT threshold or enrollment quota per dose were not reached then the MTD could not be determined.

Time frame: Cycle 1 (up to 21 days)
Participants received MK-2206 135 mg administered PO on Days 1, 8 and 15 in combination with Erlotinib (100 or 150 mg) administered PO once every day of each 21-day cycle. The MTD was determined by the number of participants who experienced a DLT. DLT was defined using the NCI CTCAE version 3.0 criteria. See primary DLT outcome measure for the DLT definition. The MTD was defined as the dose level, at which the percentage of patients who experienced a DLT rate in Cycle 1 that was closest to 30%. A minimum of 13 participants were required to be enrolled per dose to calculate DLT. If the DLT threshold or enrollment quota per dose were not reached then the MTD could not be determined.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing MK-2206, docetaxel and erlotinib in people with Locally Advanced, Metastatic Solid Tumors, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.
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 6 inclusion and 19 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 12 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Nov 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) During Cycle 1 (time frame: Cycle 1 (Up to 21 days)). The study lists 11 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00848718, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 12 Nov 2019.
