  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have a histologically confirmed solid malignancy that is metastatic, or unresectable, or recurrent, for which no curative or standard of care exist, or this standard of care is no longer effective
  • Tumors have been shown to be deficient for the FA pathway, based on Fanconi anemia triple stain immunofluorescence (FATSI) screening
  • Patients will be consented to have their existing, or about to be obtained, paraffin embedded tumor tissue screened for FA deficiency; screening will be performed on an ongoing basis on the breast, thoracic, gastrointestinal (GI), Georgetown University (GU), and gynecologic (GYN) Ohio State University (OSU) clinics, anteceding and concurrently with the clinical trial; it will continue until the numbers of patients required for the clinical trial are identified and enrolled; based on the estimation from our preliminary data of 15 to 30% of patients, depending on the primary organ site, having tumors deficient for the FA pathway we will need to screen around 300 patients' samples to identify 40-50 patients; none of the eligibility criteria defined above or below will need to be met for the screening portion, since FA deficient patients identified by screening may meet eligibility criteria for the clinical trial at a later time; (e.g., patient is undergoing standard of care treatment at the time of the screening); separate written consents for screening and for the clinical trial will be obtained from patients
  • Up to two chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease are allowed; in addition, prior adjuvant/neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, molecular targeted therapy or estrogen receptor B (Erb) inhibitor treatments (e.g., erlotinib, Herceptin, sorafenib, sunitinib) will be allowed and will not count towards eligibility; at least 4 weeks must elapse since prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy (two weeks for erlotinib, hormonal therapy, or limited field palliative radiation to bone, brain, or radiosurgery), 6 weeks if the last regimen included nitrosoureas or mitomycin C; previous use of mitomycin C would be restricted to topical applications (bladder cancer) or chemoembolization (e.g., liver tumors)

About this study

Official title: ABT-888 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Mitomycin C in Patients With Solid Tumors With Deficiency in Homologous Recombination Repair

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given with or without mitomycin C in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body, cannot be removed by surgery or have come back. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as mitomycin C, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving veliparib together with mitomycin C may kill more tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To screen cancer patients across different histological sites to identify those with functional defects in the Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway in their tumors.

II. To establish the safety and practicality of treating patients with FA deficient tumors with the poly (adenosine diphosphate [ADP]-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor ABT-888 (veliparib) as protracted monotherapy.

III. To establish the safety and practicality of treating patients with FA deficient tumors with the combination of mitomycin C (MMC) and ABT-888.

IV. To select a dose of ABT-888 protracted monotherapy and a dose-schedule of the combination of mitomycin C and ABT-888 in patients with FA deficient tumors for phase 2 trials.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate for germ-line FA repair deficiency and BRCA mutations in peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC) in patients receiving ABT-888 treatment.

II. To evaluate in PBMC samples for foci produced by the histone variant gamma-H2A histone family, member X (H2AX) in patients receiving mitomycin C with or without ABT-888 in order to assess any possible effect of ABT-888 in the cellular sensing and processing of mitomycin C-induced deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) double strand breaks.

III. Quantify the number of patients with antitumor responses.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of veliparib. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I: Patients receive veliparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM II: Patients receive veliparib PO BID on days 1-7, 1-14, or 1-21. Patients also receive mitomycin C intravenously (IV) over 10-20 minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 12 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Laboratory Biomarker Analysis, Mitomycin and Veliparib in people with Solid Neoplasm, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 2 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 22 inclusion and 8 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 11 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

Ability to safely deliver the combination of mitomycin C and veliparib (time frame: Up to 12 weeks post-treatment). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Jul 2016.
