About this study

Official title: A Single Arm, Phase 1/2 Study of SNX-5422 in Subjects With Selected HER2 Positive Cancers.

Hsp90 is a chemical in the body that is involved in the promotion of cancer. SNX-5422 is an experimental drug that blocks Hsp90

Read the detailed description

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) chaperone proteins stabilize well over 200 different known client proteins helping them to fold correctly as they take up their rightful positions in the cell. Hsp90 has a special fondness for oncoproteins whose structures shift according to functional state. Among Hsp90's clients, a surprising number are well recognized targets in oncology, including human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). SNX-5422 is a pro-drug of SNX-2112, a potent, highly selective, small-molecule inhibitor of the molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90). Treatment of HER2-positive cell lines such as BT-474 with the Hsp90 inhibitor SNX-2112 results in cellular degradation, decreased levels of phospho-AKT/cyclin D1, and increased apoptosis. Furthermore, treatment with SNX-5542 caused tumor regression, including remission in a HER2-overexpressing breast cancer xenograft model. SNX-5422 has demonstrated significant antitumor activity in mouse xenograft models of various human malignancies, including breast (BT474, MX-1), lung (H1975, H1650, EBC-1), colon (HT29), prostate (PC3), and melanoma (A375) with multiple oral dosing regimens.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate

    The effect of SNX-5422 on tumor progression. Objective tumor responses (complete remissions plus partial remissions) and clinical benefit rate (complete remissions plus partial remissions plus stable disease at 6 months) will be listed by subject. Tumor measurements made using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST).

    Measured: Up to 24 months from last patient entry

  2. Progression Free Survival

    Time on treatment with at worst stable disease.

    Measured: Every 3 months until 24 months after the last subject has been enrolled

  3. Overall Survival

    Time from start of treatment that patients remain alive.

    Measured: Every 3 months until 24 months after the last subject has been enrolled

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Patients With Adverse Events

    Number of patients experiencing treatment emergent adverse events.

    Measured: Day 28 of each cycle

  2. Changes in Vital Signs, Physical Examination or Clinical Laboratory From Baseline

    Descriptive summaries of vital signs, physical examination and clinical laboratory changes will be presented by treatment received.

    Measured: Day 28 of each cycle

  3. Ophthalmologic Changes From Baseline

    Ophthalmologic assessments will be presented by cohort, study visit and dose. Number of subjects experiencing clinically relevant changes from baseline in any of these examinations will be presented using descriptive summary

    Measured: Screening, end of Cycle 1, final visit

  4. Adverse Events by Severity and Relationship to Treatment

    Number of patients experiencing adverse events by highest recorded severity and relationship to study tretament

    Measured: Every 28 day cycle

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing SNX-5422 in people with Cancer, run by Esanex Inc. 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 11 inclusion and 20 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 9 Feb 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Nov 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Objective Response Rate (time frame: Up to 24 months from last patient entry). 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 9 Feb 2017.
