About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study to Assess the Food Effect on the Pharmacokinetics of Entinostat in Postmenopausal Women With Locally Recurrent or Metastatic ER+ Breast Cancer and Men and Women With Progressive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the experimental drug, entinostat, in women with breast cancer and men and women with non-small cell lung cancer. The safety and tolerability of entinostat will also be evaluated when entinostat is given by itself as well as with the approved drugs, exemestane (Aromasin®) or erlotinib (Tarceva®). A biomarker (chemical "marker" in the blood/tissue that may be related to your response to the study drug) will also be tested.

Read the detailed description

This is Phase 1, randomized, open-label, study of entinostat. The study is designed to evaluate any food effect on the pharmacokinetics of entinostat.

Patients will be randomized to receive entinostat with or without food on Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1). Patients randomized to receive entinostat with food on C1D1 will receive a second dose of entinostat without food on Cycle 1 Day 15 (C1D15). Patients randomized to receive entinostat without food on C1D1 will receive a second dose of entinostat with food on C1D15. Each cycle in the study will be for 28 days duration. Blood samples will be obtained pre-dose and serial blood samples will be taken after each dose to assess pharmacokinetics. For Cycle 2 and all subsequent cycles, all patients will continue to receive entinostat on Days 1 and 15 of each cycle. Those with breast cancer will also receive exemestane orally once daily starting on Cycle 2 Day 1. Those with NSCLC will also receive erlotinib starting on Cycle 2 Day 1.

Patients will be assessed at screening and at pre-prescribed times during study enrollment using standard assessments. Patients will also be assessed for tumor response after each 2 cycles. Patients will continue receiving study treatment until tumor progression or adverse events occur which necessitate discontinuing therapy as determined by the Investigator.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in pharmacokinetics of entinostat when subjects fed or fasted

    The pharmacokinetics of entinostat will be analyzed from patient plasma samples: maximum plasma concentration, time of maximum plasma concentration, area under the plasma concentration-time curve from baseline to last measurable concentration and extrapolated to infinity, terminal elimination rate constant.

    Measured: C1D1 (sequential), D2, 4, 6, 8, 11; C1D15 (sequential), 16, 18, 20, 22 25; C2D1

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in laboratory values from baseline

    Chemistry, hematology blood samples: changes from baseline will be evaluated.

    Measured: Screening, C1D1, C1D15, C2D1, C3D1

  2. Change in ECG results from baseline

    Changes from baseline will be evaluated including analysis of QTc prolongation and QTc change from baseline.

    Measured: Screening, C1D1 (sequential), D2, 4, 6, 8, 11; C1D15 (sequential), D16, 18, 20, 22, 25; C2D1; EOT

  3. Difference in pharmacodynamics from baseline

    Blood samples will be analyzed for changes from baseline in protein lysine acetylation as measured by peripheral blood monocytes. The food effect, changes after entinostat, and changes after exemestane and erlotinib will be evaluated.

    Measured: C1D1, D2, D8; C1D15, D16, D22; C2D1; C3D1; EOT

  4. Adverse events

    Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events, serious adverse events, adverse events resulting in permanent discontinuation of study drug, and deaths occurring within 30-days of the last dose of study drug.

    Measured: C1D1 , D2, 4, 6, 8, 11; C1D15, 16, 18, 20, 22 25; C2D1; D1 of each subsequent cycle through end of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing entinostat, Erlotinib and Exemestane in people with Lung Cancer and Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by Syndax Pharmaceuticals 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 7 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 2021. 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?

Difference in pharmacokinetics of entinostat when subjects fed or fasted (time frame: C1D1 (sequential), D2, 4, 6, 8, 11; C1D15 (sequential), 16, 18, 20, 22 25; C2D1). 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 NCT01594398, 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 19 Nov 2021.
