Who cannot join

  • Uncontrolled concurrent illness, including ongoing or active infection, uncontrolled hypertension,or any other condition that could raise the subject's safety risk.

About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Open-label, Multiple Dose Escalation Trial to Determine Safety and Tolerability of Once-Daily OPB-51602 in Subjects With Advanced Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine whether OPB-51602 is safe and tolerable when given daily by mouth to subjects with advanced solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

This study is based on data that support a role for the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family of proteins in oncogenesis. One of the mechanisms of action of OPB-51602 includes inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation. Therefore OPB-51602 is expected to be active as an anti-cancer drug. This first-in-human study will characterize the safety profile of OPB-51602, evaluate the pharmacokinetics of OPB-51602, identify a recommended phase II dose, and obtain preliminary efficacy data, in subjects with advanced cancers for whom there is no standard treatment available.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the safety and tolerability of OPB-51602

    AEs, vital signs, body weight, ECGs, clinical laboratory tests, and performance status will be assessed.

    Measured: Weekly for first cycle, then every 2 weeks (on average up to 8 weeks).

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To determine the pharmacokinetics of OPB-51602 and to determine the MTD of OPB-51602

    The following PK parameters (Cmax, tmax, AUC₀-t, AUCtau, CLss/F and t½,z) will be determined using a non-compartmental approach for OPB-51602 and selected metabolites after single (Cycle 1, Day 1) and multiple daily doses (Cycle 2, Day 1).

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Pharmacodynamic profile:

    Study drug effects on STAT-3 phosphorylation will be assessed in PBMCs of study subjects in the dose escalation and expansion stages.

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Antitumor effects:

    Treatment response and/or disease progression in subjects with measurable disease will be evaluated after every 2 cycles using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST₉).

    Measured: Every 2 cycles (on average 8 weeks).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing OPB-51602 in people with Advanced Cancer, run by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization, Inc. at 3 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 17 inclusion and 8 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 15 Jan 2014. 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. 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?

To determine the safety and tolerability of OPB-51602 (time frame: Weekly for first cycle, then every 2 weeks (on average up to 8 weeks).). 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 15 Jan 2014.
