About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Crizotinib and Ganetespib (STA-9090) in ALK Positive Lung Cancers

About 18 patients will take part in the phase 1 portion of the trial. In the beginning of the study, 3 patients will be treated with a low dose of ganetespib (STA-9090) and the standard dose of crizotinib. If this dose does not cause significant side effects, it will be increased as new patients take part in the study. The study will only be open at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

What participants receive

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

  • Ganetespib (STA-9090) and crizotinibDrug

    Ganetespib (STA-9090) is given intravenously (days 1 and 8 of a 21 day cycle). Crizotinib will be given at the FDA approved dose of 250mg orally twice daily in a continuous fashion.

Ganetespib (STA-9090) and crizotinibExperimentalThis protocol is a phase I single arm, open label, single institution study of crizotinib and ganetespib (STA-9090) in patients with ALK+ advanced NSCLC who are crizotinib naïve.
Receives: Drug: Ganetespib (STA-9090) and crizotinib

What is being measured

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

  1. maximum tolerated dose

    A standard 3+3 design will be used to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Patients who withdraw before completing a full cycle will be replaced. There will be three set dose levels, using the approved dose of crizotinib, with 50%, 75% and 100% of the ganetespib (STA-9090) maximum tolerated dose of 200 mg/m2.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. efficacy

    patients with ALK rearranged NSCLC at delaying acquired resistance to crizotinib by measuring progression free survival

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. overall survival (OS)

    as defined by time from study entry to death due to any cause and overall response rate (RR), as defined by the combination of complete responses and partial responses according to RECIST 1.1

    Measured: 1 year

  2. safety profile

    Toxicity will be graded according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), version 4.0.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ganetespib (STA-9090) and crizotinib in people with Advanced Lung Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 5 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 9 inclusion and 20 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 30 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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?

maximum tolerated dose (time frame: 1 year). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01579994, 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 30 Dec 2020.
