About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomized, 2-treatment, 2-period, 2-way Crossover, Single-dose Study to Determine the Relative Bioavailability of the MEK Inhibitor, Trametinib, in Subjects With Solid Tumor Malignancies

This is an open-label, randomized, single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-period, 2-way crossover study with incomplete wash-out in subjects with solid tumors to determine the relative bioavailability of test formulation with lower dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) content as compared with standard reference formulation trametinib.

Approximately 18 subjects will be randomized to receive either a single dose of Treatment A (standard target DMSO content [theoretical 11.3%] formulation of GSK1120212B) or a single dose of Treatment B (lower DMSO Content [approximately 9.5%] formulation of GSK1120212B) followed by a 7 day incomplete wash-out period, then a single dose of the other treatment.

Administration of the dose under fasted conditions in Periods 1 and 2 will be only on Day 1 followed by 7 days of serial blood sampling for PK analysis of plasma trametinib. Safety assessments, including assessment of AEs, clinical laboratory (hematology and clinical chemistry) and vital signs, will be made throughout the study.

After a subject completes the study, he or she may be eligible to enter study MEK114375, an open-label rollover study of trametinib (no wash-out period or follow-up visit required) and continue receiving trametinib. For those subjects who wish to discontinue or complete the current study and choose not enter the rollover study, a follow-up visit should be performed within 21 days after receiving the last dose of study treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Corrected Cmax of GSK1120212B

    Pharmacokinetic data will include corrected maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of GSK1120212B. Comparison of Cmax will enable to determine the relative bioavailability of the test formulation with lower DMSO content (Treatment B) and the standard reference formulation (Treatment A). Period 2 PK parameters will be corrected for residual concentrations from Period 1 (based on individual estimates of t1/2) to remove the carry-over effect.

    Measured: Period 1 and 2: Day 1 pre-dose within 15 minutes (mins) of planned study treatment administration (serves as the 168-hour [hr] sample for Period 1), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10 hrs post-dose; Days 2 to 7: post dose at 24 hrs (Day 2), 48 hrs (

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GSK1120212B (Standard DMSO content) and GSK1120212B (Lower DMSO content) in people with Cancer, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 4 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 8 inclusion and 18 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 13 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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?

Corrected Cmax of GSK1120212B (time frame: Period 1 and 2: Day 1 pre-dose within 15 minutes (mins) of planned study treatment administration (serves as the 168-hour [hr] sample for Period 1), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10 hrs post-dose; Days 2 to 7: post dose at 24 hrs (Day 2), 48 hrs (). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Nov 2017.
