Trial summary

Panobinostat (LBH589) is a deacetylase inhibitor (DACi) which belongs to a structurally novel cinnamic hydroxamic acid class of compounds. It is one of the most potent class I/II pan-DAC inhibitor (pan-DACi) that has shown anti-tumor activity in pre-clinical models and patients with solid tumors and hematological… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Oral Panobinostat in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors and Various Degrees of Hepatic Function

Panobinostat (LBH589) is a deacetylase inhibitor (DACi) which belongs to a structurally novel cinnamic hydroxamic acid class of compounds. It is one of the most potent class I/II pan-DAC inhibitor (pan-DACi) that has shown anti-tumor activity in pre-clinical models and patients with solid tumors and hematological malignancies.

To date, the pharmacokinetics (PK) of panobinostat has been characterized in patients with solid tumors and hematological malignancies participating in several phase I/II clinical studies. Panobinostat PK does not appear to be different in patients with solid tumors and hematological malignancies. However, the effect of organ dysfunction on PK of panobinostat is yet to be elucidated.

Kidney and liver are involved in the elimination and metabolism of panobinostat. The current study is designed to evaluate the impact of hepatic function status on panobinostat PK.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the effect of various degrees of impairment in hepatic function as measured by the National Cancer Institute-Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (NCI-CTEP) criteria, on the pharmacokinetics of panobinostat.

    Measured: first 7 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To assess the effect of various degrees of impairment in hepatic function on the safety of panobinostat

    Measured: entire duration of study

  2. To evaluate whether there is a relationship between panobinostat PK and safety parameters in patients with various degrees of hepatic organ function

    Measured: first 7 days

  3. To explore anti-tumor activity associated with panobinostat.

    Measured: best overall response

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LBH589 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 6 sites in 5 countries.

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 7 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 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Sweden, United States, Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom. 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 assess the effect of various degrees of impairment in hepatic function as measured by the National Cancer Institute-Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (NCI-CTEP) criteria, on the pharmacokinetics of panobinostat. (time frame: first 7 days). 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 NCT01007968, 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 19 Dec 2020.
