Who may be able to join

  • Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to registration for protocol therapy. Patients are considered not of child bearing potential if they are surgically sterile (they have undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or they are postmenopausal.
  • Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information.
  • Age > 18 years.

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Amrubicin and Cyclophosphamide in Patients With Advanced Solid Organ Malignancies

Amrubicin has shown single-agent activity in lung cancer. The combination of cyclophosphamide and anthracyclines has been studied and concluded that the combination was tolerable, could be given safely, and therapeutically useful.

This Phase I study will evaluate the combination of cyclophosphamide with amrubicin in relapsed solid tumors and will define the MTD of the combination in a US population.

Read the detailed description

OUTLINE: This is a multi-center study.

This study will follow the 3+3 design with the following dose levels:

  • Dose Level -1: Amrubicin 20mg/m2, Cyclophosphamide 500mg/m2
  • Dose Level 1: Amrubicin 25mg/m2, Cyclophosphamide 500mg/m2
  • Dose Level 2: Amrubicin 30mg/m2, Cyclophosphamide 500mg/m2
  • Dose Level 3: Amrubicin 35mg/m2, Cyclophosphamide 500mg/m2
  • Dose Level 4: Amrubicin 40mg/m2, Cyclophosphamide 500mg/m2

Dose escalation starts from dose level 1.

Amrubicin will be given as a slow IV push or infusion over approximately 5 minutes once daily for 3 consecutive days starting on day 1 of each 21 day cycle.

Cyclophosphamide will be given at a fixed dose as an IV infusion over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of each 21 day cycle (following amrubicin).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Amrubicin and Cyclophosphamide in people with Lung Cancer, run by Lawrence Einhorn at 10 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 9 inclusion and 5 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 23 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 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 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?

To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) of the combination of amrubicin and cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced solid tumors. (time frame: 24 months). 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 NCT00890955, 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 23 Dec 2015.
