About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b/2 Study Evaluating IPI-926 in Combination With Gemcitabine in Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Study IPI-926-03 is a Phase 1b/2 clinical trial to evaluate IPI 926 in combination with gemcitabine in patients with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic cancer. Phase 1b is designed as a dose escalation study. Once the maximum tolerated dose of IPI-926 in combination with gemcitabine is established in the Phase 1b portion of the study, the Phase 2 portion will commence.

Phase 2 is designed as a randomized, double-blind (investigator/patient), placebo-controlled study. There is no cross-over option for patients in either arm of the Phase 2 (i.e., there is no option for patients receiving placebo to cross-over to IPI-926).

Read the detailed description

IPI 926 is an inhibitor of the Hedgehog Pathway. IPI-926 in combination with gemcitabine may improve therapeutic outcomes in patients with pancreatic cancer. Infinity is conducting a Phase 1b/2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IPI-926 in combination with gemcitabine in patients with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic cancer.

IPI-926 plus gemcitabine, Placebo plus gemcitabine

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of safety profile including MTD

    To determine the safety profile, including maximum tolerated dose, of IPI-926 plus gemcitabine in patients with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic cancer.

    Measured: Once per week for 3 weeks of a 4 week cycle

  2. Overall survival comparison

    • To compare the overall survival (OS) of patients with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with IPI-926 plus gemcitabine or placebo plus gemcitabine.
    • To evaluate the safety of IPI-926 plus gemcitabine or placebo plus gemcitabine.

    Measured: An average of 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Measurement of the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC0-t) of IPI-926 and gemcitabine.

    • To evalutate pharmacokinetics (PK) of IPI-926, gemcitabine, and their relevant metabolites.

    Measured: During the 3rd week of the first 4 week cycle

  2. Comparison of PFS, TTP and ORR

    • To compare the progression free survival (PFS), time to progression (TTP) and overall response rate (ORR) of patients treated with IPI-926 plus gemcitabine or placebo plus gemcitabine.

    Measured: An average of 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing IPI-926 plus gemcitabine in people with Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer, run by Infinity Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 28 sites in 2 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 8 inclusion and 15 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 6 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 28 sites in United States, Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Evaluation of safety profile including MTD (time frame: Once per week for 3 weeks of a 4 week cycle). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01130142, 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 6 Mar 2017.
