What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) was calculated for Part A Pimasertib 60 mg Capsule and tablet.

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Zero to the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC 0-t)

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the last sampling time (AUC0-t) at which the concentration was at or above the lower limit of quantification.

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Zero to Infinity (AUC0-inf)

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  2. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  3. Apparent Terminal Half-life (t1/2)

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  4. Apparent Total Body Clearance (CL/f)

    Clearance of a drug was a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Drug clearance is a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the blood.

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  5. Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/f)

    Volume of distribution was defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired plasma concentration of a drug. Apparent volume of distribution after oral dose (Vz/F) is influenced by the fraction absorbed.

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  6. Terminal Rate Constant (λz)

    Measured: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3

  7. Number of Subjects With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, and TEAEs Leading to Discontinuation

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug administration until 30 days after the last dose of study drug administration that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pre treatment state.

    Measured: From the first dose of study drug administration until 30 days after the last dose of study drug administration, assessed up to 14 Months

  8. Part B: Number of Subjects Who Experienced Complete Response (CR)

    CR as per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 defined as disappearance of all target lesions except lymph nodes (LN); LN must have a decrease in the short axis to less than (<)10 millimeter (mm).

    Measured: Screening to Day 1 of each cycle (21 day in each cycle) until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or death; assessed up to 14 Months

  9. Part B: Number of Subjects Who Experienced Partial Response (PR)

    PR as per RECIST v1.1 defined as 30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: Screening to Day 1 of each cycle (21 day in each cycle) until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or death; assessed up to 14 Months

  10. Part B: Number of Subjects Who Experienced Stable Disease (SD)

    SD as per RECIST v1.1 defined as neither shrinkage to qualify for PR nor increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD) taking the smallest sum diameters on study as reference. PR = 30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters; PD = 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of >=1 new lesions.

    Measured: Screening to Day 1 of each cycle (21 day in each cycle) until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or death; assessed up to 14 Months

  11. Part B: Number of Subjects Who Experienced Progressive Disease (PD)

    PD as per RECIST v1.1 defined as 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of >=1 new lesions.

    Measured: Screening to Day 1 of each cycle (21 day in each cycle) until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or death; assessed up to 14 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Pimasertib Capsule (Part A), Pimasertib Tablet (Part A) and Pimasertib Capsule (Part B and trial extension phase) in people with Neoplasms, run by EMD Serono at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 6 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 15 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 May 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?

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Predose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, 8, and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 3). 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 NCT01992874, 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 15 Aug 2017.
