About this study

Official title: An Exploratory Pharmacodynamic Study of XL765 and XL147 Administered as Single Agents to Subjects With Recurrent Glioblastoma Who Are Candidates for Surgical Resection

The purpose of this study is to measure what effect the study drug XL765 (SAR245409) or the study drug XL147 (SAR245408) has on tumor tissue in subjects with recurrent glioblastoma (GB) who are candidates for surgical resection. XL765 (SAR245409) and XL147 (SAR245408), the two investigational agents examined in this study, XL147 (SAR245408) is a potent inhibitor of PI3 Kinase (PI3K) and XL765 (SAR245409) is a dual PI3K and mTOR inhibitor. In preclinical studies, inactivation of PI3K has been shown to inhibit growth and induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in tumor cells.

What is being measured

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

  1. To explore the biological effect of XL765 and XL147 measured by modulation of PI3K/ mTOR pathway readouts in GB tumor tissue

    Measured: Assessed between 10 and 28 days after initiation of study drug

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. To examine the safety profile of daily oral administration of XL765 and XL147 in subjects with recurrent GB

    Measured: Assessed at every visit to the study clinic for the duration of subject's treatment

  2. To determine the levels of XL765 and XL147 in plasma and GB tumor tissue

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits between 10 and 28 days after initiation of study drug for the duration of subject's treatment

  3. To assess the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects of XL765 and XL147 on tumor cells

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits to the study clinic for the duration of subject's treatment

  4. To measure changes in tumor after surgery in subjects receiving XL765 and XL147

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits following surgery 10 to 28 days after initiation of study drug for the duration of subject's treatment

  5. To conduct genetic analyses of GB tumor tissue comparing, where feasible, tumor tissue removed during the on-study resection with tissue removed during the initial surgical resection

    Measured: Assessed 10 to 28 days after initiation of study drug

  6. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic effects of XL765 and XL147 in blood and/or blood cells for identification and characterization of surrogate biomarkers associated with the biological effects of XL765 and XL147

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits to the study clinic

  7. To explore the relationship between clinical response and genomic and proteomic biomarkers in the PI3K and EGFR pathways

    Measured: Duration of the study (approximately 2 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing XL765 (SAR245409) and XL147 (SAR245408) in people with Glioblastoma and Astrocytoma, Grade IV, run by Sanofi at 4 sites 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 9 inclusion and 18 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 27 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

To explore the biological effect of XL765 and XL147 measured by modulation of PI3K/ mTOR pathway readouts in GB tumor tissue (time frame: Assessed between 10 and 28 days after initiation of study drug). 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 27 Jul 2012.
