About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study to Determine the Safety of TH-302 in Combination With Sunitinib in Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma,Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

The primary objectives are:

Dose escalation:

Read more
  1. To determine the MTD and DLT(s) of TH-302 when used in combination with sunitinib.

Dose expansion:

  1. To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib as determined by the response rate and the progression-free survival in subjects with advanced RCC treated at the RP2D
  2. To assess the safety of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose of the combination.

The secondary objectives are:

Dose expansion:

  1. To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib as determined by stable disease or better rate, duration of response and overall survival in subjects with advanced RCC treated at the RP2D.

The exploratory objective is:

  1. To explore the association of serum hypoxia biomarkers with efficacy endpoints.
Read the detailed description

This Phase 1 dose-escalation study will use a classic dose escalation design to determine the MTD of TH-302 when used in combination with sunitinib. The study will be divided into two parts completed in succession to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for dose expansion.

Part A:

The dose of TH-302 will be escalated in cohorts of 3-6 subjects. The initial dose of TH-302 will be 240 mg/m2. A Dose Level minus 1 and 2 will be built into the study in the event that subjects experience excessive toxicity at Dose Level 1. Dose escalation will continue with approximately 40% increases from the previous dose level; however lower dose increases of 20-39% may be implemented after consultation between the Investigators, Medical Monitor and Sponsor with the percent increase dependent on the current dose level and the cumulative safety data.

If a subject experiences a DLT, 3 additional subjects will be enrolled at that dose level for a total of 6 subjects in that cohort. If no additional DLTs are observed, dose escalation will resume. However, if 2 or more of 6 subjects within a cohort experience a DLT, that dose will be considered to exceed the MTD. The MTD will then be defined at the next lower dose level whereby 6 subjects were treated and < 1 subject experienced a DLT. The maximum dose of TH-302 will be 575 mg/m2.

The MTD will be based on toxicities occurring during the first cycle.

TH-302 will be administered by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes on Days 8, 15 and 22 of a 42-day cycle (6 weeks).

The dose of sunitinib will remain fixed: 50 mg administered PO daily on days 1 to 28 day of a 42-day cycle (6 weeks). On days when both sunitinib and TH-302 are administered, sunitinib should be administered at least 2 hours before or at least 2 hours after completion of the TH-302 dose.

Part B:

Once the MTD from Part A has been determined, Part B can commence.

The initial dose of TH-302 will be one dose level higher than the MTD established in Part A. The dose of TH-302 will be escalated in cohorts of 3-6 subjects. A Dose Level at the MTD established in Part A will be built into the study in the event that subjects experience excessive toxicity at the initial dose. Dose escalation will continue with approximately 40% increases from the previous dose level; however lower dose increases of 20-39% may be implemented after consultation between the Investigators, Medical Monitor and Sponsor with the percent increase dependent on the current dose level and the cumulative safety data.

If a subject experiences a DLT, 3 additional subjects will be enrolled at that dose level for a total of 6 subjects in that cohort. If no additional DLTs are observed, dose escalation will resume. However, if 2 or more of 6 subjects within a cohort experience a DLT, that dose will be considered to exceed the MTD. The MTD will then be defined at the next lower dose level whereby 6 subjects were treated and < 1 subject experienced a DLT.

The MTD will be based on toxicities occurring during the first cycle.

TH-302 will be administered by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes on Days 8, 15 and 22 of a 42-day cycle (6 weeks).

The dose of sunitinib will remain fixed: 37.5 mg administered PO daily on days 1 to 28 of a 42-day cycle (6 weeks).

On days when both sunitinib and TH-302 are administered, sunitinib should be administered at least 2 hours before or at least 2 hours after completion of the TH-302 dose.

An additional 10 RCC subjects will be enrolled at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the dose expansion portion of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TH-302 in people with Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma and Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors, run by Threshold Pharmaceuticals 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 25 inclusion and 24 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2014. 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?

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?

To determine the MTD and DLT(s) of TH-302 when used in combination with sunitinib. (time frame: Two years). 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 21 Apr 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
