About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of Copanlisib(Phosphatidylinositol-3 Kinase Inhibitor) in Combination With Gemcitabine (Treatment A) or Cisplatin Plus Gemcitabine (Treatment B) in Subjects With Advanced Solid Malignancy

This open label Phase I study involves treating subjects with advanced cancer with Copanlisib in combination with either gemcitabine or cisplatin plus gemcitabine. It will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Copanlisib in combination with gemcitabine and Copanlisib in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine. The trial will involve multiple participating sites from the US. Up to a maximum of 70 subjects will be enrolled in the study.

What participants receive

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

  • GemcitabineDrug

    Gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 as 30-minutes IV infusion

  • BAY80-6946Drug

    Escalated dose starting from 0.6 mg/kg in 100 mL of 0.9% NaCl as 60-minutes IV infusion

  • CisplatinDrug

    1 liter of 0.9% NaCl including 25 mg/m2 cisplatin, 20 mmol of potassium chloride, and 8 nmol of magnesium sulfate over 60 minutes

    BAY80-6946 IV infusion at the maximum tolerated dose determined in Treatment A over 60 min. [If Treatment A MTD is not tolerable, further subject enrollment will begin at one BAY80-6946 Dose Level lower with the cisplatin-gemcitabine doses remaining constant.]

Study groups in NCT01460537
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Treatment A: Gemcitabine-CopanlisibExperimentalThe treatment consists of repetitive cycles, each over 28 days. Treatment continues until disease progression or dose limiting toxicity. If gemcitabine is discontinued for toxicity, Copanlisib may be continued at the discretion of the Investigator if a clinical benefit (response or stable disease for 3 months) is noted. - Hour 0 to 0.5: Gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2 as 30-minute IV infusion) on Days 1, 8 and 15 every 28 days - Hour 1.5 to 2.5: BAY80-6946 (starting dose = 0.6 mg/kg as 60-minute IV infusion, starting 1 hour post completion of gemcitabine infusion) on Days 1, 8 and 15 every 28 days
Receives: Drug: Gemcitabine; Drug: BAY80-6946
Treatment B: Cisplatin-Gemcitabine-CopanlisibExperimentalTreatment consists of repetitive 21 day cycles for a maximum of 8 cycles. Treatment continues until disease progression, DLT or completion of 8 cycles. After 8 cycles, gemcitabine and Copanlisib, without cisplatin, may continue at the discretion of the Investigator until disease progression or DLT if a clinical benefit is noted (response or stable disease for 3 months). Treatment is administered on Days 1 and 8 every 21 days as follows: - Hour 0 to 1: Cisplatin IV infusion over 60 min (One liter of 0.9% NaCl including 25 mg/m2 cisplatin, 20 mmol of potassium chloride, and 8 mmol of magnesium sulfate) - Hour 1 to 1.5: IV infusion of 500 ml of 0.9% NaCl over 30 min - Hour 1.5 to 2: Gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2 as 30 min IV infusion) - Hour 3 to 4: Copanlisib IV infusion at the MTD determined in Treatment A over 60 min. [If Treatment A MTD is not tolerable, further subject enrollment will begin at one Copanlisib Dose Level lower with the cisplatin-gemcitabine doses remaining constant.]
Receives: Drug: Gemcitabine; Drug: Cisplatin; Drug: NaCl; Drug: BAY80-6964 fixed dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Gemcitabine, BAY80-6946 and Cisplatin in people with Neoplasms, run by Bayer 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 10 inclusion and 14 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 4 Oct 2017. 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?

Adverse event collection (time frame: Up to 3 years or longer if indicated). 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 4 Oct 2017.
