About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study of JNJ-212082 (Abiraterone Acetate) in Patients With Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to assess pharmacodynamics and safety of JNJ-212082 in order to select the recommended dose of JNJ-212082 for patients with castration resistant prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicenter (more than one site), open-label (both physician and patient know the name of the study drug), dose-escalation study in chemotherapy-naive patients with castration- resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to evaluate the pharmacodynamics (the study of the action or effects of drugs on living organisms), safety, pharmacokinetics (how drugs are absorbed in the body, how they are distributed within the body and how they are removed from the body over time) and preliminary effectiveness of JNJ-212082. The dose of the study will be escalated from 250 mg (cohort 1), 500 mg (cohort 2), to 1000 mg (cohort 3). Six to twelve patients within each 250 mg, 500 mg or 1000 mg cohort will be orally administered drug once per day. Comprising 28 days for each 1 cycle, the administration will be continued up to discontinuation for any reasons such as progression of the disease or up to the transition to extension study (Protocol number: JNJ-212082-JPN-203) which will be separately planned. In addition, 5 mg of prednisolone will be orally administered twice per day since Day 8. On receiving notification of the confirmation of safety of 500 mg of the drug, patients of cohort 1 who are currently on continuous administration can receive increment 500 mg per day starting from the next cycle (If the dose escalation would not be appropriate due to safety reasons, the patients will continue the original dose). Furthermore, on receiving notification of the confirmation of safety of 1000 mg, patients of previous cohorts who are currently on continuous administration can receive increment 1000 mg per day as well from the next cycles (If the dose escalation would not be appropriate due to safety reasons, the patients will continue the original dose). JNJ-212082 will be orally administered once per day. Comprising 28 days for each 1 cycle, the administration will be continued up to discontinuation for any reasons such as progression of the disease or up to the transition to extension study. The drug will be administered at least 1 hour prior to meal or 2 hours after meal. The daily dose of the drug is defined as 250 mg, 500 mg or 1000 mg. In addition, 5 mg of prednisolone (marketed) will be orally administered twice per day since Day 8.

What is being measured

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

  1. The pharmacodynamics (serum concentrations of corticosterone, testosterone, DHEA-S, 11-deoxycorticosterone)

    Measured: At Days 1, 2, and 8 of Cycle 1

  2. The number of patients reporting adverse events as a measure of safety

    Measured: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Plasma concentrations of abiraterone acetate and abiraterone

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Rates of decrease of prostate specific antigen (PSA)>50% (criteria of PCWG2 - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group)

    Measured: Maximum 52 weeks

  3. Tumor regression in patients with measurable lesions (RECIST - Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors)

    Measured: Maximum 52 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-212082 in people with Prostatic Neoplasms, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K. at 5 sites in Japan.

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 5 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 23 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Japan. 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?

The pharmacodynamics (serum concentrations of corticosterone, testosterone, DHEA-S, 11-deoxycorticosterone) (time frame: At Days 1, 2, and 8 of Cycle 1). 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 NCT01186484, 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 23 Oct 2017.
