What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

    Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) are any adverse events that are not clearly related to disease progression including Grade 4 neutropenia, Grade 3 or 4 febrile neutropenia, thrombocytopenic bleeding or Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, and any Grade 3 or 4 non hematologic toxicity. An adverse event (AE) is any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure and function (Clinical AE) or chemistry (Laboratory AE) of the body temporally associated with the use of study product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product.

    Measured: Cycle 1 (up to 21 or 28 days, depending on treatment arm)

  2. Number of Participants With Any Clinical or Laboratory Adverse Event

    This is a measure of the number of participants who experienced any adverse event (AE) while on study.

    Measured: First dose up to 30 days after last dose (up to 2 years)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Area Under the Curve From Hour 0 to Hour 24 (AUC[0-24]) for MK-1496 Single Dose (21-Day Cycle)

    AUC[0-24] is a measure of the total plasma exposure of drug over a 24-hour period after the initial dose; for this analysis AUC was measured on Day 1 of the first 21-day cycle.

    AUC[0-24] for the 28-day cycle is reported as Outcome Measures 4 and 5.

    Measured: Cycle 1, Day 1 (Hour 0 through Hour 24)

  2. Mean AUC[0-24] of MK-1496 on Day 1 of Multiple Dose Administration (28-Day Cycle)

    AUC is a measure of the total plasma exposure of a drug. For this analysis, AUC was measured just prior to dosing and through 24 hours postdose on Day 1 of Weeks 1, 2, and 3 in Cycle 1. The AUC value presented is the mean AUC for all measurements.

    AUC[0-24] for the Day 3 doses is reported as Outcome Measure 5.

    Measured: Cycle 1, Day 1 (Hour 0 through Hour 24)

  3. Mean AUC[0-24] of MK-1496 on Day 3 of Multiple Dose Administration (28-Day Cycle)

    AUC is a measure of the total plasma exposure of a drug. For this analysis, AUC was measured just prior to dosing and through 24 hours postdose on Day 3 of Weeks 1, 2, and 3 in Cycle 1. The AUC value presented is the mean AUC for all measurements.

    AUC[0-24] for the Day 1 doses is reported as Outcome Measure 4.

    Measured: Cycle 1, Day 3 (Hour 0 through Hour 24)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MK-1496 in people with Neoplasms and Malignant, 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 19 Feb 2015. 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 26 Oct 2012). 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 With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs) (time frame: Cycle 1 (up to 21 or 28 days, depending on treatment arm)). 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 19 Feb 2015.
