About this study

Official title: A Phase IB Combination Study of MEK Inhibitor GSK1120212 With Gemcitabine in Subjects With Solid Tumors

MEK112111 is a dose-escalation, Phase IB, open-label, single-arm, multi-center study. The primary objective of the study is to determine the recommended dose and regimen for the orally administered MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 dosed in combination with gemcitabine in subjects with solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be enrolled using a dose-escalation procedure in which the initial cohort receives a fraction of the GSK1120212 dose that achieved a dose limiting toxicity in a previous study and the recommended dose of gemcitabine. Escalation will proceed until the maximum tolerated doses are identified. These doses will be selected based on emerging safety data. Confirmation of the tolerability of the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) will be explored in approximately 12 subjects. Subjects will continue on treatment until treatment discontinuation criteria are met (disease progression, intercurrent illness, adverse event or consent withdrawal).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • GSK1120212Drug

    Continuous daily oral dosing while on study or disease progression (cycle = 28 days).

  • GemcitabineDrug

    Dosing once weekly for 3 weeks in a 28 day cycle until disease progression.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse events (AEs) and changes in laboratory values and vital signs.

    Measured: From date of randomization until withdrawal from the study due to disease progression, AE, withdrawal of consent or study closure approximately 6 months after last subject was randomized.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Tumor response as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) v 1.1

    Measured: At screening and every 8 weeks until withdrawal from the study due to disease progression, AE, withdrawal of consent or study closure approximately 6 months after last subject was randomized.

  2. drug levels in blood

    Measured: first 15 days on study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GSK1120212 and Gemcitabine in people with Leukaemia, Myelocytic, Acute, run by GlaxoSmithKline 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 17 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 13 Nov 2017. 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?

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?

Adverse events (AEs) and changes in laboratory values and vital signs. (time frame: From date of randomization until withdrawal from the study due to disease progression, AE, withdrawal of consent or study closure approximately 6 months after last subject was randomized.). 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 NCT01428427, 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 13 Nov 2017.
