About this study

Official title: A Cancer Research UK Phase I Study to Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose of the Oral Src/Abl Inhibitor AZD0424, and to Identify Tolerable and Effective AZD0424 Combination Regimens for the Treatment of Advanced Solid Tumours

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the oral Src/Abl inhibitor AZD0424, and to find tolerable and effective AZD0424 combination regimens for the treatment of advanced solid tumours

Read the detailed description

AZD0424 is a potent orally available, potent (IC50 approximately 4 nM) inhibitor of Src and ABL1 kinases with additional activity against Src family kinase (SFK) members including Yes and Lck. AZD0424 was selective for SFKs and ABL1 kinase over C-terminal Src kinase (a negative regulator of Src) and a range of other kinase targets. The anti-cancer activity of AZD0424 is thought to be mediated primarily by anti-migratory and anti-invasive signalling and, as such, it is expected that in the late stage cancer setting strong signals of efficacy with this compound used as a single agent are unlikely, requiring it to be administered in combination with other anti-cancer agents.

In summary the study will be performed in four main stages:

  • AZD0424 monotherapy, dose escalation: Phase Ia single agent (AZD0424) dose escalation study to determine the MTD.
  • AZD0424 monotherapy, dose expansion: Phase Ib single agent dose expansion at MTD (up to six additional patients may be recruited in order to provide paired tumour biopsies for PD analysis).
  • Combination arm dose escalation: Provided that it is deemed appropriate (after review of available clinical data from the monotherapy part of the trial, and available preclinical and published data on the combination), a Phase Ia dose escalation arm of AZD0424 in combination with the selected agent will proceed to determine the MTD for the combination and a recommended Phase II dose.
  • Combination arm dose expansion: Phase Ib combination arm using the recommended Phase II dose for both AZD0424 and the combination agent.

What participants receive

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

  • AZD0424Drug

    AZD0424 will be administered as a flat dose orally once a day. One treatment cycle consists of 28 days of continuous drug administration with AZD0424, with the flexibility to introduce treatment breaks if required due to cumulative toxicity.

    Combination agents and treatment regimen with AZD0424 will be confirmed and approved at a later date.

What is being measured

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

  1. Establishing the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of AZD0424 alone and in combination

  2. Determining the causality and duration of adverse events observed during the study according to NCI CTCAE Version 4.02

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Determining the correlation between PK studies and toxicity and/or efficacy.

  2. Measurement of urinary and serum N terminal Telopeptide (NTx) and serum C-terminal peptide (CTx) levels before the first AZD0424 administration and then following first AZD0424 administration, to evaluate bone turnover

  3. Measurement of the following biomarkers in tumour tissue before and after the first AZD0424 administration: p-Src, MKI67 (Ki-67), p-PAX, p-CRKL, p-FAK.

  4. Evaluate responses (stable disease (SD), partial response (PR) or complete response (CR)) in any of the patients as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD0424 in people with Advanced Solid Tumours, run by Cancer Research UK at 3 sites in United Kingdom.

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 12 inclusion and 15 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2018. 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 Kingdom. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Single agent phase completed, insufficient supportive preclinical data to proceed with combination phase). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Establishing the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of AZD0424 alone and in combination. 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 NCT01668550, 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 5 Feb 2018.
