About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of P276-00 in Combination With Gemcitabine in Patients With Cancer of Pancreas

The purpose of this study is to identify a dose of P276-00 that can be safely administered along with Gemcitabine and to examine safety and efficacy of the combination in treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study is an open label multicenter trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of P276-00 in combination with Gemcitabine in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Primary objective in part A is to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of P276-00 in combination with Gemcitabine and in part B to evaluate efficacy of this combination in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. In part A, cohort of 3 subjects will be enrolled at starting dose level of P276-00 which is 100 mg/m2/ day to be given intravenously (IV) from day 1 to day 5 every 21 days. This constitutes one cycle of P276-00. If this dose is well tolerated then next cohort will be enrolled at higher dose level of P276-00. P276-00 dose escalation will continue until MTD of P276-00 in combination with Gemcitabine is determined. The subsequent dose levels of P276-00 will be 140 mg/m2/day and 185 mg/m2/day. In part B ten subjects will be evaluated at the MTD of P276-00 in combination with Gemcitabine to evaluate efficacy of the combination. Dose of Gemcitabine will be same in both parts of the study which is 1000mg/m2 over 30mins every week for 7 weeks followed by a gap of one week and then 3 weekly doses every 4 weeks. Subjects will be treated for six cycles of P276-00 in combination with Gemcitabine or until evidence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Safety evaluations will be performed at regular intervals by means of record of vital parameters, physical examination and laboratory investigations for hematology and biochemistry. Efficacy assessment will be performed by means of weekly record of pain intensity, analgesic consumption, change in weight and performance status for evaluation of clinical benefit response and by means of CT scans at the end of every 2 cycles for evaluation of tumor response by RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors)

What participants receive

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

  • P276-00Drug

    Subjects will be enrolled at different levels of P276-00 dosage as follows:- Level 1 - 100mg/ m 2/day x 5 q 3 weeks Level 2 - 140 mg/ m2/day x 5 q 3 weeks Level 3 - 185 mg/ m2 /day x 5 q 3 weeks P276-00 will be administered as intravenous infusion in 200 ml of 5% dextrose over 30min from days 1 to 5 per 21 day cycle. Six such cycles will be administered unless there is progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity.

  • GemcitabineDrug

    Gemcitabine will be administered as an intravenous infusion at dose of 1000mg/m 2 over 30 mins every week for 7 weeks followed by a gap of one week and then 3 weekly doses every 4 weeks. This treatment will be continued for six P276-00 cycles of 3 weeks each unless there is progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing P276-00 and Gemcitabine in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by Piramal Enterprises Limited at 7 sites in India.

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 14 inclusion and 10 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 20 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in India. 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?

To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of P276-00 administered along with Gemcitabine. (time frame: 3 weeks). 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 20 Jan 2012.
