About this study

Official title: Pharmacodynamic Study Using FLT-PET/CT in Patients With Prostate and Other Solid Malignancies Treated With an Interrupted High-dose Axitinib Schedule

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety of an investigational drug, axitinib. An investigational drug is a drug that has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is available for research use only. Researchers will also see what changes happen to the tumors while taking the axitinib and after it is stopped (during the scheduled breaks), and what changes in the tumor may be responsible for this growth. This will be done by using a special kind of scan called an 18F-FLT PET/CT. This scan is considered an investigational type of scan and is not used for clinical care. These scans are not approved by the FDA, their use in this study is just for research purposes.

In addition, the investigators want to find out how the drug is processed and distributed in the human body. The investigators will also look at how different types of cancer are affected by axitinib.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Safety cohortExperimental6 evaluable patients with RECIST measurable solid malignancies will be enrolled to establish the safety and toxicity of axitinib at 7 mg PO BID days 1-14 in 21 day cycles.
Receives: Drug: axitinib
Pharmacodynamic cohortExperimentalPD cohort A: Up to 6 patients with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (evidence of soft-tissue metastases amendable to FLT-PET/CT imaging), and PD cohort B: Up to 12 patients with other solid malignancies (evidence of radiographic metastases amendable to FLT-PET/CT imaging) will be enrolled with scans obtained at baseline, peak exposure, and peak withdrawal of axitinib, in cycle#1, with repeat imaging in select patients in PD cohorts A and B at a later cycle of therapy.
Receives: Drug: axitinib

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing axitinib in people with Solid Malignancies and Metastatic Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 13 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 19 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Pharmacodynamic change on FLT-PET/CT (time frame: baseline, cycle 1 weeks 2 and 3, pre-cycle 3, cycle 3 weeks 2 and 3). 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 19 Nov 2019.
