What is being measured

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

  1. Part1 (Dose Escalation): The Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BMS-982470 using 2 distinct schedules when administered in combination with Ipilimumab

    Based on the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate

    Measured: Within the first 63 days

  2. Part 2 (Cohort Escalation): Safety and tolerability of the MTD dose for each of the schedules

    Based on medical review of AE reports and the results of vital sign measurements, physical examinations, medical history, and clinical laboratory tests

    Measured: 84 days on treatment

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Efficacy of BMS-982470 in combination with Ipilimumab as measured by objective response

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), End of Treatment (EOT) [3 weeks after last dose of Ipilimumab], 3 and 6 months Follow-up

  2. Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration [AUC(0-T)] of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  3. Area under the serum concentration-time curve in one dosing interval [AUC(TAU)] of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  4. Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinite time [AUC(INF)] of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  5. The maximum observed serum concentration (Cmax) of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  6. Trough observed serum concentration (Cmin) of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 1 time point each 3-week Cycle

  7. The time of maximum observed serum concentration (Tmax) of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  8. Serum half-life (T-HALF) of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  9. Apparent total body clearance (CLT) of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  10. Apparent volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) of BMS-982470 and Ipilimumab

    Measured: 20 time points during Lead-In Cycle; Up to 11 time points during Cycle 3

  11. Incidence of BMS-984270 and Ipilimumab Anti-Drug Antibodies

    Measured: Up to 6 months following last dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BMS-982470 (recombinant interleukin-21) and Ipilimumab in people with Melanoma, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 9 sites in 2 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 3 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 29 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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?

Part1 (Dose Escalation): The Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BMS-982470 using 2 distinct schedules when administered in combination with Ipilimumab (time frame: Within the first 63 days). 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 29 Aug 2014.
