About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b/2, Multi-center, Uncontrolled, Open-label, Dose Escalation Study of Refametinib (BAY86-9766) in Combination With Regorafenib (BAY73-4506) in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Cancer

Phase I: Determine the maximum tolerated dose of combination of Regorafenib with Refametinib through a dose escalation study, all tumor types that meet certain inclusion/exclusion criteria can be entered.

After the recommended dose is determined, the Phase II portion of the study will evaluate tolerability and efficacy of the combination treatment in patients with breast cancer, lung cancer, or colorectal cancer, respectively.

Read the detailed description

Number of treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AEs) will be reported in Adverse Events section.

Study was originally designed with both Phase I and Phase II part, but sponsor decided not to conduct Phase 2 part due to strategic portfolio re-prioritization.

What participants receive

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

  • Refametinib (BAY86-9766)Drug

    Refametinib twice daily (b.i.d.) in combination with intermittent regorafenib once daily (q.d.) at the assigned dose level.

    In Phase 2, the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for refametinib-regorafenib combination therapy will be used.

  • Regorafenib (Stivarga, BAY73-4506)Drug

    Refametinib twice daily (b.i.d.) in combination with intermittent regorafenib once daily (q.d.) at the assigned dose level.

    In Phase 1b dose escalation, regorafenib will be administered in a 3-weeks-on / 1-week-off schedule except in one cohort, that uses regorafenib 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off regimen (dose level -2). In Phase 2, the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for refametinib-regorafenib combination therapy will be used.

    Progression-free survival was defined as the time from date of treatment assignment to date of first observed disease progression or death due to any cause, if death occurred while the participant was in the study and before progression was observed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Refametinib (BAY86-9766) and Regorafenib (Stivarga, BAY73-4506) in people with Neoplasms, run by Bayer at 5 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 13 inclusion and 11 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 26 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Jan 2018). 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 Drug Concentration in Plasma After Multiple Dose (Cmax,md) for Refametinib (time frame: Cycle 1 Day 21 at 0 (pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose). The study lists 12 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 26 Jan 2018.
