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

  • Males and females 18 years of age or older at the time of signing the informed consent document.
  • Understand and voluntarily sign an informed consent document prior to any study related assessments/procedures are conducted.
  • Able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements.
  • Must have diagnosis of advanced malignancy and must have failed other available therapies considered standard of care for their disease.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1.
  • Negative urine or serum pregnancy test on females of childbearing potential; and
  • All females of childbearing potential must use an effective barrier method of contraception (either an intrauterine contraceptive device [IUCD] or double barrier method using condoms or a diaphragm plus spermicide) during the treatment period and for at least 1 month thereafter. Male subjects should use a barrier method of contraception during the treatment period and for at least 3 months thereafter. Female subjects should avoid the use of estrogen-containing contraceptives, since romidepsin may reduce the effectiveness of estrogen-containing contraceptives. An in vitro binding assay determined that romidepsin competes with β-estradiol for binding to estrogen receptors.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time-curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-t)of Romidepsin

    AUC0-t: area under the plasma concentration time-curve from Time 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (Ct), calculated by linear trapezoidal method when concentrations are increasing and the logarithmic trapezoidal method when concentrations are decreasing. For AUC0-t, an analysis of variance (ANOVA) model was used to estimate the ratio of geometric means and its 90% CI between romidepsin alone and romidepsin in the presence to ketoconazole.

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose) 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time-curve From Time 0 to 24-hour (AUC 0-24)

    AUC 0-24: area under the plasma concentration time-curve from Time 0 to 24 hours, calculated by linear trapezoidal method when concentrations are increasing and the logarithmic trapezoidal method when concentrations are decreasing; for AUC 0-24 an analysis of variance (ANOVA) model was used to estimate the ratio of geometric means and its 90% confidence interval (CI) between romidepsin alone and romidepsin in the presence of ketoconazole

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time-curve From Time 0 Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-∞)

    AUC0-∞: area under the plasma concentration time-curve from Time 0 extrapolated to infinity, calculated as [AUCt + Ct/λz].

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

  4. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax: maximum observed plasma concentration, obtained directly from the observed concentration versus time data; for Cmax, an analysis of variance (ANOVA) model was used to estimate the ratio of geometric means and its 90% confidence interval (CI) between romidepsin alone and romidepsin in the presence of ketoconazole

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

  5. Time to Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Tmax: time to maximum observed Tmax, obtained directly from the observed concentration versus time data

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

  6. Estimate of the Terminal Elimination Half-life in Plasma (t1/2)

    Terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) in plasma, was calculated as [(ln 2)/λz]

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose),1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

  7. Apparent Total Plasma Clearance (CL)

    Apparent total plasma clearance, (CL) calculated as [Dose/AUC 0-∞].

    Measured: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

  8. Apparent Total Volume of Distribution (Vz)

    Vz: apparent total volume of distribution, calculated as [(CL)/λz].

    Measured: Days 1 and 8, At 0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Summary of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    All 15 subjects in the safety population received at least 1 dose of romidepsin. AEs were considered related if assessed by the Investigator as possibly, probably or definitely related to study drug. Serious AEs (SAEs) are those that resulted in death, were life-threatening, required or prolonged inpatient hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly, or resulted in an important medical event that may have jeopardized the patient or required medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 36 (28 days after last treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Romidepsin and Ketoconazole in people with Hematologic Malignancy and Malignant Lymphoma, run by Celgene at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 35 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 25 Nov 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 United States, United Kingdom. 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 15 May 2013). 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?

Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time-curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-t)of Romidepsin (time frame: Days 1 and 8; at 0 (pre-dose) 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours (end of infusion) and at 4.25, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the initiation of IV infusion.). The study lists 8 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 25 Nov 2019.
