Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether tasisulam acts as an inducer of CYP3A using midazolam as a sensitive and specific probe substrate of CYP3A. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of tasisulam and midazolam given in combination and document any antitumor activity with tasisulam. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Tasisulam on CYP3A-mediated Metabolism of Midazolam: A Pharmacokinetic Interaction Study in Cancer Patients With Advanced and/or Metastatic Tumors or Lymphoma

The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of tasisulam and midazolam given in combination and document any antitumor activity with tasisulam.

What participants receive

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

  • TasisulamDrug

    Also called LY573636

    Patient specific dose, administered intravenously, on Day 1 of a 28-day cycle. Minimum of one (1) 28-day cycle. Patients may continue to receive tasisulam until disease progression or until discontinuation criteria are met.

  • MidazolamDrug

    1.2 milligrams (mg), administered orally once prior to the initiation of tasisulam therapy and once on Day 8 after initiation of tasisulam therapy

What is being measured

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

  1. Midazolam Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to the Last Time Point With Measurable Concentrations (AUC 0-tlast)

    Measured: Period 1 and 2: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-dose.

  2. Midazolam Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Period 1 and 2: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-dose.

  3. Midazolam Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC 0-infinity)

    Measured: Period 1 and 2: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-dose.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants With Tumor Response

    Number of participants with tumor response = number of participants with complete response (CR) + number of participants with partial response (PR), as classified by the investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines. CR is disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR is ≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 15 of Maintenance Period up to 3 months

  2. Tasisulam Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Period 2: Predose, preinfusion start, 1, 1.75, 2 (post end of infusion), 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, and 336 hours.

  3. Tasisulam Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve Above the Albumin Corrected Threshold (AUCalb)

    Tasisulam is highly bound to albumin. AUCalb is a surrogate measure of exposure to unbound (free) tasisulam.

    Measured: Period 2: Predose, preinfusion start, 1, 1.75, 2 (post end of infusion), 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, and 336 hours.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tasisulam and Midazolam in people with Advanced Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 3 sites in France.

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 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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 18 Mar 2019). 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?

Midazolam Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to the Last Time Point With Measurable Concentrations (AUC 0-tlast) (time frame: Period 1 and 2: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-dose.). The study lists 3 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 18 Mar 2019.
