About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Two Part, Phase I/II Study to Investigate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Clinical Activity of the MEK Inhibitor GSK1120212 in Combination With the AKT Inhibitor GSK2110183 in Subjects With Solid Tumors and Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the MEK inhibitor and the AKT inhibitor can be given in combination and if the combination is effective treatment for patients with solid tumors, including breast cancer and endometrial cancer, and for patients with multiple myeloma.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, two part, Phase I/II study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of the MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 administered in combination with the AKT inhibitor GSK2110183 in subjects with solid tumors and multiple myeloma.

In Part 1, the safety and tolerability of a range of doses for GSK1120212 and GSK2110183 dosed in combination will be investigated; pharmacokinetics will also be analyzed to determine whether there is a drug-drug interaction between GSK1120212 and GSK2110183 when dosed in combination.

The second part of the study will focus on evaluation of the clinical efficacy of the combination as well as the pharmacodynamic response in subjects with proteasome-refractory multiple myeloma (Part 2A) or solid tumors, putatively endometrial and triple negative breast cancer (Part 2B).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GSK1120212 and GSK2110183 in people with Cancer, 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 28 inclusion and 23 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?

Part 1: Safety and tolerability in first 4 weeks as determined by the number of patients with adverse events, serious adverse events, dose reductions or delays, withdrawals due to toxicities and changes in lab values and vital signs from baseline (time frame: Weekly during first four weeks.). The study lists 4 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 NCT01476137, 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.
