About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of RRx-001 in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphomas For Which There Are No Currently Accepted Curative Therapies

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of RRx-001 for injection in subjects with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas for which there are no currently accepted curative therapies. This study will also conduct an exploratory evaluation of objective tumor response using CT or MRI.

Read the detailed description

The DINAMIC (DINitroazetidines As Medications In Cancer) trial represents a provascular approach to temporarily change tumor blood flow and oxygenation. Blood supply to most tumors is poor, causing parts of tumors to have a low oxygen content which promotes aggressiveness and metastasis. The DINAMIC trial uses specific imaging techniques (including ultrasound), biopsy, and breath analysis to provide an early assessment of therapeutic activity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RRx-001 in people with Malignant Solid Tumor and Lymphomas, run by EpicentRx, Inc. at 2 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 8 inclusion and 20 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 1 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 1 Nov 2024). 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?

Number of Patients Who Had an Adverse Events (time frame: From time of receiving a dose of RRx-001 through 92 days). 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 NCT01359982, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Nov 2024.
