Receives: Drug: AZD7762; Drug: gemcitabine

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of adverse events (based on CTCAE version 3.0), laboratory values, vital sign measurements, cardiac markers, ECG, Echocardiogram

    Measured: Laboratory values weekly for all treatment cycles, and the other variables weekly for Cycle 0-1, then every cycle (3-4 weeks) from Cycle 2

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pharmacokinetic effect of AZD7762 when administered alone and in combination with gemcitabine

    Measured: According to protocol specified schedule, the number of PK samples collected during Cycle 0 and Cycle 1

  2. Anti-tumor activity of AZD7762 when administered in combination with gemcitabine by assessment of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)

    Measured: Every 2-3 cycles

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD7762 and gemcitabine in people with Cancer and Solid Tumors, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in Japan.

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 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Termination of the study was made after a full review of program data and assessment of the current risk-benefit profile.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Assessment of adverse events (based on CTCAE version 3.0), laboratory values, vital sign measurements, cardiac markers, ECG, Echocardiogram (time frame: Laboratory values weekly for all treatment cycles, and the other variables weekly for Cycle 0-1, then every cycle (3-4 weeks) from Cycle 2). 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 7 Feb 2011.
