About this study

This is a 2-phase study during which patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors will receive investigational study drug ARRY-334543 and gemcitabine.

The study has 2 parts. In the first part of the study, Phase 1, patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors will receive increasing doses of study drug in combination with gemcitabine in order to achieve the highest dose of study drug possible that will not cause unacceptable side effects. Patients will be followed to see what side effects the combination causes and what effectiveness the combination has, if any, in treating the cancer. Approximately 24 patients from the US will be enrolled in Part 1 (Completed).

In the second part of the study, Phase 2, patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer will receive the best dose of study drug, in combination with gemcitabine, determined from the first part of the study and will be followed to see what side effects the combination causes and what effectiveness the combination has, if any, in treating the cancer. Approximately 42 patients from the US will be enrolled in Part 2 (Withdrawn).

What is being measured

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

  1. Establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of study drug in combination with gemcitabine.

    Measured: Part 1

  2. Characterize the safety profile of study drug in combination with gemcitabine in terms of adverse events, clinical laboratory tests and electrocardiograms.

    Measured: Part 1

  3. Characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of study drug, gemcitabine and a gemcitabine metabolite.

    Measured: Part 1

  4. Assess the efficacy of the study drug in combination with gemcitabine in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) at 16 weeks.

    Measured: Part 2

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Assess the efficacy of the study drug in combination with gemcitabine in terms of tumor response.

    Measured: Part 1

  2. Characterize the safety profile of study drug in combination with gemcitabine in terms of adverse events, clinical laboratory tests and electrocardiograms.

    Measured: Part 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ARRY-334543, EGFR/ErbB2 inhibitor; oral and Gemcitabine, nucleoside analogue; intravenous in people with Advanced Cancer and Pancreatic Cancer, run by Array BioPharma at 6 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 4 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of study drug in combination with gemcitabine. (time frame: Part 1). The study lists 4 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 4 Oct 2012.
