  • At least one tumor lesion with diameter >= 2 cm measurable according to Modified RECIST.

Who cannot join

  • Any condition that may preclude oral intake or oral absorption, history of gastrointestinal malabsorption, or surgery involving gastro- and/or intestinal- anastomosis within 4 weeks prior to starting study drug.
  • Untreated or unstable known primary or metastatic central nervous system (CNS) tumors (stability shown by contrast-enhanced computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scans at least 8 weeks apart, with the most recent scan obtained within 28 days prior to starting study treatment).
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or C, or severe/uncontrolled infection or intercurrent illness (unrelated to tumor).
  • Prior surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, biologic therapy or investigational drugs within 4 weeks prior to starting study drug. Prior immunotherapy, hormonal, or molecular targeted therapy within 2 weeks prior to starting study treatment (except gonadorelin analogue therapy for prostate cancer is allowed). (All acute toxicities related to prior treatments should have resolved).
  • Clinically significant cardiac impairment or unstable ischemic heart disease including a myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to starting study drug.
  • Requiring therapeutic anti-coagulant therapy (prophylactic dose of heparin or low molecular weight heparin is allowed).
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Poorly controlled hypertension (defined as a change in hypertensive therapy within 3 months of starting study drug) or hypertension diagnosed at screening (defined as a repeat blood pressure measurement of 160/90 mmHg or higher).
  • Pregnancy or lactation. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test before inclusion into the study, and must agree to use medically acceptable methods of contraception (e.g. abstinence, or a double-barrier method [e.g. condom + spermicide, condom + diaphragm with spermicide], or IUD, or have a vasectomised partner) starting at Screening and throughout the entire study period and for 2 months after the last dose of study drug. Those female patients using hormonal contraceptives must also be using an additional approved method of contraception (as described previously) starting at Cycle 1 Day 1, and continuing throughout the entire study period and for 2 months after the last dose of study drug.
  • Perimenopausal women must have been amenorrheic for at least 12 months; otherwise a pregnancy test is required.
  • Male patients must agree to use contraceptive methods (e.g., abstinence, or a double-barrier method [e.g., condom + spermicide, condom + partner diaphragm with spermicide]).
  • Additional exclusion criterion for the additional 15 patients recruited to the expanded MTD cohort only:
  • History of any malignancy other than the present malignancy (except treated non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix), unless in complete remission and off all therapy for that disease for a minimum of 5 years.

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Dose-Finding Study of E7050 Administered Orally to Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of E7050 given orally in patients with advanced solid tumors.

What participants receive

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

  • E7050Drug

    Oral dosing starting at 100 mg once daily. After the MTD of once daily dosing has been determined, subsequent cohorts will be treated with a divided dosing schedule either twice or three times daily. The starting dose for this schedule will be an appropriate level below the MTD for once daily dosing.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose: the highest dose at which no more than 1 out of 6 patients experiences Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) during Cycle 1.

    Measured: Weekly assessments during the first 4 weeks of treatment.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. DLTs and adverse events.

    Measured: Weekly assessments during the first 4 weeks of treatment for DLTs and throughout the study for AEs.

  2. Pharmacokinetics (blood and urine).

    Measured: Weekly assessments of blood during Cycle 1 and every 2 weeks for subsequent cycles and of urine on Day 1 of Cycles 1 and 2.

  3. Pharmacodynamics (blood).

    Measured: Weekly assessments during Cycle 1, every 2 weeks on Cycle 2, and on Day 1 of subsequent cycles.

  4. Best overall tumor response, duration of response and duration of stable disease assessed according to modified RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors).

    Measured: At Screening, between Days 21 and 28 of every even cycle, and at the Final Visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing E7050 in people with Cancer, run by Eisai Inc. at 2 sites in United Kingdom.

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 10 inclusion and 12 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 29 Jan 2016. 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 Kingdom. 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: the highest dose at which no more than 1 out of 6 patients experiences Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) during Cycle 1. (time frame: Weekly assessments during the first 4 weeks of treatment.). 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 29 Jan 2016.
