About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Multiple-Ascending-Dose Study of DS-2248, an Orally Bioavailable Heat Shock Protein 90 Inhibitor, in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors

This phase 1 clinical trial is intended to understand the safety and tolerability of a new anticancer drug in subjects with advanced solid tumors. The patients who qualify for the study will receive a once daily dose of the drug taken by mouth and will undergo several tests to measure the drug in the blood and to understand the safety, tolerability and any effect of the drug on the tumor. The antitumor effect of the drug is not known in human.

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted in two parts. Part 1 is a dose escalation study in which subjects in each cohort will be given increasing doses of the study drug until a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD) is determined as the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). The drug will be administered as oral capsules once daily in 21 day cycles, with no interruption between cycles if no unacceptable treatment-related toxicity or tumor progression are observed.

After determining the RP2D, Part 2 of the study, which is a dose expansion study will begin in which subjects with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who developed acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), erlotinib, gefitinib, afatinib (and others) or whose tumors carry an ALK translocation and are resistant to ALK inhibitor therapy, will be treated with DS-2248 at RP2D. The drug will be administered as oral capsules once daily in 21 day cycles, with no interruption between cycles if no unacceptable treatment-related toxicity or tumor progression are observed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Summary of Objective Response Rate Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

    Objective response rate was defined as the sum of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) rates. CR was defined as a disappearance of all target lesions; any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have had a reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression, discontinuation of study, or death, up to 2 years 11 months

Secondary outcomes (10)

  1. Summary of Best Overall Response Rate Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

    Complete response (CR) was defined as a disappearance of all target lesions; any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have had a reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial response (PR) was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Progressive disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this included the baseline sum if that was the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also have demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Stable disease (SD) was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study. Objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the sum of CR and PR rates.

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression, discontinuation of study, or death, up to 2 years 11 months

  2. Summary of Disease Control Rate Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

    Disease control rate (DCR) was defined as the sum of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) rates, and stable disease (SD) rate for a minimum of 12 weeks. Complete response (CR) was defined as a disappearance of all target lesions; any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have had a reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial response (PR) was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Stable disease (SD) was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions), taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression, discontinuation of study, or death, up to 2 years 11 months

  3. Duration of Stable Disease Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

    Duration of response measured from the time at which criteria were first met for complete (CR) or partial response (PR) until the first date that progressive disease (PD) was objectively documented. Participants who had not progressed at the data cut-off date were censored at their last evaluable tumor assessment date. Duration of stable disease (SD) measured from the date of enrollment until the first date that criteria for disease progression were met. The minimum time interval for the duration of SD was 6 weeks. Participants who had not progressed at the data cut-off date were censored at their last evaluable tumor assessment date.

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression, discontinuation of study, or death, up to 2 years 11 months

  4. Summary of Progression-free Survival Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

    Progression-free survival (PFS) defined as the time from the date of enrollment to the earlier of the dates of the first objective documentation of radiographic disease progression (as per RECIST V1.1) or death due to any cause. Participants who were alive with no objective documentation of (radiographic) disease progression by the data cut-off date were censored at the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who were lost to follow-up or withdrew early from the study with no documented disease progression were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment.

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression, discontinuation of study, or death, up to 2 years 11 months

  10. Summary of Drug Related Treatment Emergent Adverse Events Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

    A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event that emerges during treatment, having been absent at pre-treatment; or reemerges during treatment, having been present at baseline but stopped prior to treatment; or worsens in severity after starting treatment relative to the pre-treatment state, when the AE is continuous. A DS-2248-related TEAE is an TEAE that is related to DS-2248 in the relationship.

A Phase 1 study testing DS-2248 in people with Solid Tumors and Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by Daiichi Sankyo at 9 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 29 inclusion and 22 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 5 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Jul 2020). 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?

Summary of Objective Response Rate Following Oral Administration of DS-2248 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors (time frame: Baseline up to disease progression, discontinuation of study, or death, up to 2 years 11 months). 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 NCT01288430.

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 5 Oct 2021.
