About this study

Official title: An Open Label Phase I Dose Finding Study of BI 853520 Administered Orally in a Continuous Dosing Schedule in Patients With Various Advanced or Metastatic Non-hematologic Malignancies

The primary objective of this trial is to determine the safety and tolerability of BI 853520 monotherapy by defining the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommending the dose for further trials in the development of this compound.

Secondary objectives are

  • determination of the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile;
  • exploratory pharmacodynamic analysis; and
  • collection of preliminary data on anti-tumour efficacy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determination of the MTD. It will be defined by the occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) during the first treatment cycle of each patient in the dose finding phase

    Measured: After the first 28 days of treatment

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Cmax (maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma) after first dose

    Measured: up to 48 hours

  2. AUCt,1 (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over a uniform dosing interval t after administration of the first dose)

    Measured: up to 48 hours

  3. Cmax,ss (maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma at steady state over a uniform dosing interval t) after the last dose in cycle 1

    Measured: up to 24 hours

  4. AUCt,ss (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma at steady state over a uniform dosing interval t) after the last dose in cycle 1

    Measured: up to 24 hours

  5. Disease control rate (CR or PR or SD per RECIST v1.1) )

    Measured: up to 39 months

  6. Duration of disease control (measured from drug start date to the date of disease progression for patients who had CR or PR or SD during treatment)

    Measured: up to 39 months

  7. Objective response rate (CR or PR per RECIST v1.1)

    Measured: up to 39 months

  8. Tumour shrinkage (in millimetre) defined as change from baseline to the minimum post-baseline sum of diameters of target lesions.

    Measured: up to 39 months

  9. Pharmacodynamic assessment: phosphorylated and total PTK2 (FAK) modulation in tumour biopsies

    Measured: baseline, day 22 and day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 853520 in people with Neoplasms, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 5 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 17 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Netherlands, Canada. 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?

Determination of the MTD. It will be defined by the occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) during the first treatment cycle of each patient in the dose finding phase (time frame: After the first 28 days of treatment). 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 NCT01335269, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 9 Dec 2015.
