About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Single-arm, Phase I Study of AEB071 (a Protein Kinase C Inhibitor) in Patients With CD79-mutant Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

This study has two phases, a dose escalation phase and a dose expansion phase. For dose escalation, the primary objective is to estimate the maximum tolerated dose of AEB071 in patients with diffuse large b-cell lymphoma. The endpoint for this objective will be occurrence of Dose Limiting Toxicity. For dose expansion, the primary objective is to characterize the safety and tolerability of the maximum tolerated dose or recommended phase 2 dose of AEB071 in patients with diffuse large b-cell lymphoma. The endpoints for this objective will be occurrence of Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), assessment of clinical laboratory values, and vital sign measurements.

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) during cycle 1 (Dose Escalation phase)

    Measured: Cycle 1 (28 days)

  2. Number of Pparticipants reporting Serious Adverse Events and Adverse Events (Dose Expansion phase)

    Measured: Baseline, 28 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Response Rate, using NHLIWG criteria

    Assess the overall response rate to AEB071

    Measured: Baseline, 12 months

  2. Number of Participants reporting Serious Adverse Events and Adverse Events

    Measured: Baseline, 12 months

  3. AEB071 PK parameters including Cmax, tmax, AUCt, Ctrough, CL/F and RA

    Evaluate the single and multiple dose PK of AEB071 in patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

    Measured: First 7 months of treatment period

  4. Pre and post-dose gene and protein expression of cytokines and any correlations with exposure to AEB071

    Assess the pharmacodynamic response to AEB071 in Lymphoma and blood specimens

    Measured: First 7 months of treatment period

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted26 Jul 2011 (estimated)
  2. Study startNov 2011
  3. Primary completionApr 2014
  4. Study completionApr 2014

Why it stopped: Study terminated due to enrolment challenges and availability of other options for DLBCL patients. The termination is not a consequence of any safety concern.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AEB071 in people with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 24 sites in 10 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 5 inclusion and 22 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 19 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites in United States, France, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and 5 more countries. 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 (reason given: Study terminated due to enrolment challenges and availability of other options for DLBCL patients. The termination is not a consequence of any safety concern.). 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?

Frequency of Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) during cycle 1 (Dose Escalation phase) (time frame: Cycle 1 (28 days)). The study lists 2 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 19 Dec 2020.
