About this study

Official title: Study of the TEM-1 Antibody, MORAb-004 (IND# 103821), in Children With Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of MORAb-004 in treating young patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors or lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as MORAb-004, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose of MORAb-004 (anti-endosialin/TEM1 monoclonal antibody MORAb-004) administered as an intravenous infusion every week to children with refractory solid tumors.

II. To define and describe the toxicities of MORAb-004 administered on this schedule.

III. To characterize the pharmacokinetics of MORAb-004 in children with refractory cancer.

IV. To monitor for the development of human anti-human antibody (HAHA) in children receiving MORAb-004.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To preliminarily define the antitumor activity of MORAb-004 within the confines of a phase 1 study.

II. To examine tumor endothelial marker-1 (TEM-1) and PDGFRB levels in tissue and plasma samples as potential biomarkers of MORAb-004 activity.

III. To correlate baseline expression of TEM-1 and PDGFRB (in issue and plasma)with clinical parameters including disease response in an exploratory manner.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study.

Patients receive anti-endosialin/TEM1 monoclonal antibody MORAb-004 intravenously (IV) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 13 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

What is being measured

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

  1. MTD, defined as the maximum dose at which fewer than one-third of patients experience dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) graded according to the revised National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  2. Incidence of toxicities, graded according to NCI CTCAE version 4.0

    A descriptive summary of all toxicities will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing anti-endosialin/TEM1 monoclonal antibody MORAb-004, pharmacological study and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Adult Nasal Type Extranodal NK/T-cell Lymphoma and Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma, run by Morphotek at 20 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 33 inclusion and 16 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 8 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 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?

MTD, defined as the maximum dose at which fewer than one-third of patients experience dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) graded according to the revised National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 (time frame: Up to 4 weeks). 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 NCT01748721, 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 8 Jan 2016.
