  • Serum creatinine =< 1.5 X institutional upper limit of normal OR creatinine clearance >= 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2 for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal
  • Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately; men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and 4 months after completion of ARQ 197 administration
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier
  • Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents
  • Patients with untreated brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial; however patients with stable brain disease (off corticosteroids) at least 2 weeks after completion of appropriate therapy for their brain metastases are eligible; patients who require enzyme-inducing anti-convulsants (EIAC) should be switched to non-EIAC and be on a stable dose of the new agent for at least 2 weeks prior to treatment on this protocol
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to ARQ 197 or topotecan
  • The metabolism and consequently overall pharmacokinetics of ARQ 197 could be altered by inhibitors and/or inducers or other substrates of cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) and cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4); while inhibitors/inducers of these cytochrome P450 isoenzymes are not specifically excluded, investigators should be aware that ARQ 197 exposure may be altered by the concomitant administration of these drugs; caution should be applied when CYP2C19 inhibitors such as omeprazole, fluvoxamine, fluconazole, ticlopidine, rabeprazole, fluoxetine, and moclobemide, or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors such as atazanavir, clarithromycin, indinavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, nelfinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir, ciprofloxacin, telithromycin, troleandomycin (TAO), or voriconazole, are used as concomitant therapy; because the lists of these agents are changing, it is important to consult an updated list; as part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the patient will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of ARQ 197 in Combination With IV Topotecan in Advanced Solid Tumors With an Expansion Cohort in Small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of tivantinib and topotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Tivantinib and topotecan hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the combination of ARQ 197 (tivantinib) and intravenous (IV) topotecan (topotecan hydrochloride).

II. To describe the toxicities of ARQ 197 and IV topotecan at each dose studied.

III. To characterize the pharmacokinetic behavior of ARQ 197 given concurrent use of IV topotecan.

IV. To document all clinical responses to ARQ 197 with IV topotecan.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of tivantinib and topotecan hydrochloride.

Patients receive tivantinib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-21, topotecan hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5, and pegfilgrastim subcutaneously (SC) on day 6. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 4 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of adverse events graded according to the NCI CTCAE version 4.0

    The toxicities observed at each dose level will be summarized in terms of type (organ affected or laboratory determination such as absolute neutrophil count), severity (by CTCAE), attribution, time of onset (i.e. course number), duration, and reversibility or outcome. Tables will be created to summarize these toxicities and side effects by dose and by course.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Tumor response as evaluated by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1

    All responses will be reported; because of the potential heterogeneity of the patients, no attempt will be made to summarize these for the patients included in the dose escalation phase.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS will be reported; because of the potential heterogeneity of the patients, no attempt will be made to summarize these for the patients included in the dose escalation phase.

    Measured: The time from start of treatment until first evidence of disease progression or death due to any cause, assessed up to 4 weeks

  3. Overall survival (OS)

    OS will be reported; because of the potential heterogeneity of the patients, no attempt will be made to summarize these for the patients included in the dose escalation phase.

    Measured: The time from start of treatment until death due to any cause, assessed up to 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Laboratory Biomarker Analysis, Pegfilgrastim and Pharmacological Study in people with Adult Solid Neoplasm, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 7 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 13 inclusion and 12 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 3 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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?

Incidence of adverse events graded according to the NCI CTCAE version 4.0 (time frame: Up to 4 weeks). 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 3 Apr 2018.
