Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologically proven diagnosis of advanced or metastatic solid tumors for whom either refractory to standard therapy exists, or for whom treatment with an investigational agent alone or in combination with docetaxel, paclitaxel, carboplatin, or paclitaxel plus carboplatin is appropriate;
  • ANC≥ 1.5 x 109/L;

About this study

Official title: An Open-label Single Center Study to Characterize the Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion (ADME) of ASA404 After a Single Intravenous Infusion of 3000 mg [14C]ASA404 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumor Malignancies

This study is designed to characterize the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) of ASA404 following a single intravenous administration of 3000 mg (approximately 1800 mg/m2) ASA404 containing 60 µCi of 14C over a period of 20 minutes in patients with advanced solid tumors. Metabolic pathways, route (s) of elimination, distribution characteristics in plasma and blood, and exposure characterization in plasma and blood, and exposure characterization of the parent drug and metabolites will be obtained from the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. characterize the pharmacokinetic profiles of ASA404 and any potential metabolite(s) in plasma and pharmacokinetic profiles of the total radioactivity in blood and plasma after a single intravenous infusion of 3000 mg [14C] ASA404 (60 µCi)

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. determine the rate and routes of excretion of ASA404 (60 µCi)

    Measured: 12 months

  2. identify metabolite(s) structures(s) and quantify the metabolites of ASA404 in plasma, urine, and feces in order to elucidate the biotransformation pathways and determine the essential clearance mechanisms of ASA404

    Measured: 12 months

  3. collect safety data (including electrocardiograms) for ASA404

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ASA404 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in New Zealand.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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 14 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in New Zealand. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

characterize the pharmacokinetic profiles of ASA404 and any potential metabolite(s) in plasma and pharmacokinetic profiles of the total radioactivity in blood and plasma after a single intravenous infusion of 3000 mg [14C] ASA404 (60 µCi) (time frame: 12 months). 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 14 Feb 2017.
