About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Monotherapy Dalotuzumab and Ridaforolimus-Dalotuzumab Combination Treatment in Pediatric Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a study of dalotuzumab given as monotherapy and in combination with ridaforolimus for pediatric participants with advanced solid tumors. This study will have three parts. Part 1 will find a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and collect pharmacokinetic (PK) data for dalotuzumab alone. Part 2 will find an MTD and collect PK data for dalotuzumab in combination with ridaforolimus. Part 3 will be an expansion cohort at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD) found in Part 2 to confirm the RPTD and look at the potential efficacy of the combination therapy.

What participants receive

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

  • dalotuzumabDrug

    For Part 1: dalotuzumab, intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes every three weeks, dose based on participant body surface area (BSA), starting dose of 900 mg/m^2, and escalated for successive cohorts of participants until MTD is found

  • dalotuzumabDrug

    For Part 2: dalotuzumab IV over 60 minutes every three weeks, dose based on participant BSA, starting at the lowest tolerated dose that met PK target levels in Part 1. For Part 3: dalotuzumab IV over 60 minutes every three weeks, dose based on participant BSA, at the dose level identified for combination therapy in Part 2

  • ridaforolimusDrug

    Also called MK-8669

    For Part 2: ridaforolimus 10 mg enteric coated tablets, orally, on 5 consecutive days each week, dose based on participant BSA, at 1 dose level lower than the MTD or highest dose level used in the companion study MK-8669-056. For Part 3:ridaforolimus 10 mg enteric coated tablets, orally, on 5 consecutive days each week, dose based on participant BSA, at the dose level identified for combination therapy in Part 2

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) while receiving dalotuzumab alone

    Measured: First 21 days of treatment

  2. Number of participants with DLTs while receiving dalotuzumab and ridaforolimus combination therapy

    Measured: First 21 days of treatment

  3. Dalotuzumab mean serum trough concentration

    Measured: Day 22, pre-dose (Part 1)

  4. Dalotuzumab mean serum trough concentration in combination therapy

    Measured: Day 22, pre-dose (Part 2)

  5. Ridaforolimus geometric mean area under the concentration curve from Hour 0 to Hour 24 (AUC [0-24]) in combination therapy

    Measured: Cycle 1, Day 5 (Part 2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing dalotuzumab and ridaforolimus in people with Solid Tumors, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 9 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 17 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Number of participants with dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) while receiving dalotuzumab alone (time frame: First 21 days of treatment). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01431547, 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 17 Jun 2016.
