About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Multi-Center, Open Label, Dose-Escalation Study to Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose, Safety, and Anti-Tumor Activity of an Alternative Liquid Formulation of ACY-1215 (Ricolinostat) In Combination With Pomalidomide and Low-Dose Dexamethasone In Patients With Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma

To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), if present, and dose schedule of ACY-1215 (ricolinostat) in combination with pomalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone in patients with relapsed-and-refractory multiple myeloma.

Read the detailed description

To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), if present, and to identify a recommended dose and schedule of ricolinostat administered in an alternative liquid formulation (ALF) (10mg/mL) in combination with pomalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone in patients with relapsed or relapsed-and-refractory multiple myeloma.

To evaluate the safety and any anti-tumor activity of ricolinostat administered in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone as treatment for patients with relapsed or relapsed-and-refractory multiple myeloma, including duration of response.

To assess the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of all three medications administered in combination, and to assess the Pharmacokinetics of ricolinostat and pomalidomide specifically. An evaluation of the relationship between response and biomarkers relating to interacellular acetylation may also be completed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) if any, and recommended dose schedule

    Identify the MTD of ACY-1215 administered in an alternative liquid formulation (ALF) if present, and identify a recommended dose and schedule. Patients will be followed for completion of 6 28-day Cycles of Study Treatment (for ITT Population analysis).

    Measured: Every 56 days on treatment, estimated average of 4 months.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Safety

    To assess the type, frequency, and severity of adverse events (AEs) and relationship of AEs to study drug.

    Measured: Upon completion of a 28-day treatment cycle and for the duration of treatment, an estimated average of 4 months.

  2. Anti-Tumor Activity

    Anti-tumor activity will be measured by objective response to treatment as assessed by the site Investigators using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) Uniform Response criteria. Anti-tumor activity will also be measured by duration of response, time to response, and time to progression. The Response rate will be the percentage of patients who achieve PR or better. The number of patients who have at least MR or better will also be collected as clinical benefit response. Progression-free survival (PFS) will be defined as the time from first dose of study treatment to the first documentation of disease progression or death from any cause during the study. For responders, time to tumor response and response duration will be analyzed.

    Measured: Upon completion of a 28-day treatment cycle and for the duration of treatment, an estimated average of 4 months.

  3. Pharmacokinetics

    Plasma levels of ACY-1215 will be measured to assess the single and multiple dose PK of AC-1215 in combination with pomalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone. Plasma levels of pomalidomide will be measured to assess the PK of pomalidomide in combination with ACY-1215 and low-dose dexamethasone.

    Measured: Up to 8 days post first dose

  4. Pharmacodynamics

    Exposure response of ACY-1215 in combination with pomalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone, including biomarkers relating to intracellular protein acetylation, protein levels, mRNA and microRA expression profiles.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours post first dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ACY-1215 in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Celgene at 3 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 14 inclusion and 22 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 21 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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?

Determine Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) if any, and recommended dose schedule (time frame: Every 56 days on treatment, estimated average of 4 months.). 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 21 Nov 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
