What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in the First Cycle for the Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).

    DLT was defined as:

    1. Drug-related CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) grade 3 or 4 non-haematological toxicity (except untreated vomiting, untreated nausea, or untreated diarrhoea) or
    2. Drug-related CTCAE grade 4 neutropenia for 7 or more days and/or complicated by infection or
    3. CTCAE grade 4 thrombocytopenia

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Volasertib in Combination With Nintedanib

    The MTD was determined using a 3+3 design with de-escalation. The MTD was defined as the highest dose level at which maximal 1 out of 6 patients experienced DLT in the first course of the escalation nd de-escalation phase. However, all DLT's occurring in the trial were considered for selection of the recommended dose for further development.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Number of Participants With Drug Related Adverse Events

    Number of participants with investigator-defined drug related adverse events.

    Measured: From first study drug administration until 28 days after the last administration of any study medication, up to 485 days

  2. Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities

    Number of participants with dose limiting toxicities (DLTs).

    DLT was defined as:

    1. Drug-related CTCAE grade 3 or 4 non-haematological toxicity (except untreated vomiting, untreated nausea, or untreated diarrhoea) or
    2. Drug-related CTCAE grade 4 neutropenia for 7 or more days and/or complicated by infection or
    3. CTCAE grade 4 thrombocytopenia

    Measured: From first study drug administration until 28 days after the last administration of any study medication, up to 485 days

    Maximum measured concentration (Cmax) in plasma of Volasertib in Cycle 1.

    Measured: 0:05 h before start of Volasertib infusion and 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 8:00 and 24 h after start of Volasertib infusion

  4. CL of Volasertib

    Total plasma Clearance (CL) of Volasertib in Cycle 1.

    Measured: 0:05 h before start of Volasertib infusion and 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 8:00 and 24 h after start of Volasertib infusion

  5. Vss of Volasertib

    Volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) of Volasertib in Cycle 1.

    Measured: 0:05 h before start of Volasertib infusion and 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 8:00 and 24 h after start of Volasertib infusion

  6. Cmax of Nintedanib

    Maximum measured concentration (Cmax) of Nintedanib in Cycle 1.

    400 mg Volasertib + 200 mg Nintedanib group is not displayed due to data only being available for one patient.

    Measured: 5 min before Nintedanib administration in the morning and 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 6:00 h after administration on Day 9

  7. AUC(0-6h) of Nintedanib

    Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of Nintedanib over the time interval 0 to 6 hours in Cycle 1.

    400 mg Volasertib + 200 mg Nintedanib group is not displayed due to data only being available for one patient.

    Measured: 5 min before Nintedanib administration in the morning and 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 6:00 h after administration on Day 9

  8. Tmax of Nintedanib

    Time from dosing to the maximum measured concentration, Cmax, of Nintedanib (tmax) in Cycle 1.

    400 mg Volasertib + 200 mg Nintedanib group is not displayed due to data only being available for one patient.

    Measured: 5 min before Nintedanib administration in the morning and 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 6:00 h after administration on Day 9

  9. Number of Patients With Best Overall Response

    Best overall response based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Best overall response is defined as the best overall response (complete response, partial response, stable disease, progressive disease or not evaluable) since the start of treatment.

    Measured: Tumor assessment was performed at screening and every 2nd course until earliest time of progression, death or end of treatment.

  10. Number of Patients With Objective Response (OR)

    Objective tumor response based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. OR is defined as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as best response throughout the study.

    Measured: Tumor assessment was performed at screening and every 2nd course until earliest time of progression, death or end of treatment.

  11. Number of Patients With Disease Control

    Disease control based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Disease control is defined as complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) as best response throughout the study.

    Measured: Tumor assessment was performed at screening and every 2nd course until earliest time of progression, death or end of treatment.

  12. Duration of Disease Control

    Disease control based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Patients who had a best overall tumour response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) were assessed to show disease control.

    Measured: Tumor assessment was performed at screening and every 2nd course until earliest time of progression, death or end of treatment.

  13. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from start of treatment with study medication to tumour progression or death whichever occurs first. Tumour response was to be documented using appropriate techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computer tomography (CT).

    Measured: Tumor assessment was performed at screening and every 2nd course until earliest time of progression, death or end of treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 6727 and BIBF 1120 in people with Neoplasms, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 2 sites in Italy.

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 5 inclusion and 25 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 30 Jul 2018. 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 Italy. 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 30 Jul 2018). 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 Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in the First Cycle for the Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 2 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 30 Jul 2018.
