About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of the Combination of Temsirolimus (CCI-779) and Pazopanib (GW786034) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of temsirolimus and pazopanib at different doses. Patients who have an advanced cancer that is not felt to benefit from standard treatment or are no longer responding to other treatment will be asked to take part in this study. The study hypothesis is that temsirolimus and pazopanib can be administered safely in combination and that combined targeting of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) signaling pathways will be effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

Despite encouraging clinical activity reported with single-agent VEGF inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors, and other novel agents, patients rarely achieve complete disease response and ultimately undergo disease progression. The limited efficacy of single-target inhibition may be due to numerous, overlapping signaling pathways involved in Renal Cell Carcinoma proliferation and growth. A strategy of multi-target "vertical inhibition" of the overlapping aberrant VEGF and mTOR pathways by combination therapy may translate to enhanced efficacy over each single agent alone. We hypothesize that temsirolimus and pazopanib can be administered safely in combination and that combined targeting of the mTOR and VEGFR signaling pathways will be effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

What participants receive

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

  • Temsirolimus, PazopanibDrug

    Also called Torisel, Votrient

    Patients will be treated on an outpatient basis with both temsirolimus and pazopanib. All patients will receive temsirolimus intravenously (IV) weekly days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Patients will receive oral pazopanib on a daily basis starting day 1. Treatment will be administered on 28 day cycles. Patients will be in this study for a minimum of 8 weeks or 2 cycles.

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility and safety of temsirolimus and pazopanib when given in combination to patients with advanced solid tumors.

    Measured: Every 4 weeks (Cycle)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of temsirolimus and pazopanib when given in combination to patients with advanced solid tumors and to recommend a phase II dose for the combination.

    Measured: Every 4 weeks (Cycle)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Temsirolimus, Pazopanib in people with Solid Tumors, run by University of California, Davis at 1 site 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 10 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 28 Mar 2012. 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 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?

Feasibility and safety of temsirolimus and pazopanib when given in combination to patients with advanced solid tumors. (time frame: Every 4 weeks (Cycle)). 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 NCT01072890, 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 28 Mar 2012.
