About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study of IMC-1121B in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This trial is testing the investigational drug IMC-1121B administered to Japanese participants with advanced solid tumors who have not responded to standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy is available. The rationale for performing this trial is to establish the safety profile and the pharmacokinetics of IMC-1121B.

Read the detailed description

This single center, open-label, single-arm, Phase 1 study will enroll approximately 15 to 18 participants. The actual size will vary depending on the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed and the resultant sizes of the cohorts. Participants will receive IMC-1121B, administered intravenously, once every 2 or 3 weeks for 6 weeks (one cycle). After one cycle of treatment, participants who have an objective response or stable disease may continue to receive IMC-1121B at the same dose and schedule until disease progression or other withdrawal criteria are met. A minimum of three participants will be enrolled in each cohort. Dose escalation in successive cohorts will occur once all participants complete one cycle of therapy.

Participants will be enrolled sequentially into each cohort.

A completed participant will be either a participant who completes the initial 6 week treatment period (Cycle 1) or a participant who discontinues therapy for an IMC-1121B related toxicity during Cycle 1. Participants who do not complete the first 6 weeks of treatment for reasons other than an IMC-1121B -related toxicity will be replaced. Toxicity data for each cohort will be reviewed prior to dose escalation. Upon completion of all required safety evaluations during the initial 6 weeks, the next cohort of new participants will be treated at the next higher dose level using a dose escalation scheme.

What participants receive

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

  • IMC-1121BBiological

    Also called RAMUCIRUMAB, LY3009806

    Cycle 1: Upon completion of enrollment criteria confirmed at screening, the first dose of study medication should be administered within 7 days. The infusion will be planned every 2 weeks or every 3 weeks on the same day of the week of the first infusion. Dose escalation to Cohort 2 may occur in the absence of a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in the first three participants treated in Cohort 1 during the initial 6-week dosing period (Cycle 1). The same procedure will be followed for dose escalation from Cohort 2 to Cohort 3. If 1 of 3 participants in any cohort experiences a DLT in the first 6 weeks (Cycle 1), 3 additional participants will be enrolled in that cohort. Dose escalation to the next cohort may occur if less that 2 of 6 participants experience a DLT during Cycle 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Drug-Related Adverse Events

    Data presented are the number of participants who experienced adverse events (AE) of any grade, AE of Grade ≥3 based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 3.0 (NCI-CTCAE v 3.0), serious adverse events (SAE) and AE resulting in death that was considered to be related to IMC-1121B (ramucirumab). A summary of SAEs and all other non-serious AEs, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Event module.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion up to 48 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IMC-1121B in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Eli Lilly and Company 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 21 inclusion and 17 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 18 Jun 2014. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Jun 2014). 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 Drug-Related Adverse Events (time frame: Baseline to study completion up to 48 weeks). The study lists 17 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01005355, 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 18 Jun 2014.
