About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label, Multicenter, Dose Escalation Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Genz-644282 in Patients With Advanced Malignant Solid Tumors

This is a Phase I, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of Genz-644282, administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion, to patients with advanced malignant solid tumors. Each 28 day cycle of treatment will consist of 3 consecutive weeks of treatment every 28 days(i.e., treatment will be administered on Days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days). Each 21 day cycle of treatment will consist of 2 consecutive weeks of treatment every 21 days(i.e., treatment will be administered on Days 1 and 8 every 21 days). Treatment with Genz-644282 will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity is observed. Approximately 110 patients will be enrolled in this study. Patients will be enrolled in escalating dose cohorts until the Maximum Tolerated Doses (MTDs) for the 2 dosing schedules are established. To further evaluate safety, approximately 40 additional patients with advanced malignant solid tumors will be enrolled and treated at the MTDs (20 for each dosing schedule) during an expansion phase.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase I, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of Genz-644282, administered as an IV infusion, to patients with advanced malignant solid tumors. Drug will be administered as a 60-minute IV infusion on days 1, 8, and 15 of the 28 day treatment cycle, or on days 1 and 8 of the 21 day treatment cycle.

Treatment with Genz-644282 will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity is observed. Patients will be enrolled in escalating dose cohorts until the Maximum Tolerated Doses (MTDs) are established.

Safety will be evaluated throughout the study.

What participants receive

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

  • Genz-644282 (28-day dosing schedule)Drug

    Genz-644282 will be administered as a 60-minute IV infusion. The initial dose of Genz-644282 will be 0.5 mg/m2 and will be administered once weekly for 3 consecutive weeks on Day 1, Day 8, and Day 15 of the 28 day cycle. Each 28-day period will represent one treatment cycle. Study drug will continue to be given until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity is observed.

  • Genz-644282 (21-day dosing schedule)Drug

    The starting dose of Genz-644282 for the 21-day schedule will be prescriptive and will be based on review of available safety data from the 28-day dosing schedule by the Investigator and Sponsor. Patients will receive Genz-644282 once-weekly for 2 consecutive weeks on Day 1 and Day 8 of a 21 day cycle. Each 21-day period will represent 1 treatment cycle. Patients enrolled in subsequent cohorts will receive higher doses until the MTD is established.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Genz-644282 (28-day dosing schedule) and Genz-644282 (21-day dosing schedule) in people with Solid Tumors, run by Genzyme, a Sanofi Company at 4 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 21 inclusion and 11 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 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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?

Determine the Maximum Tolerated Doses for the 28-day and 21-day dosing schedules (time frame: 24 Months). 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 Mar 2014.
