About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Open-label Study to Evaluate the Effect of Multiple Doses of Enzalutamide on the Pharmacokinetics of Substrates for CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 in Male Subjects With Prostate Cancer

This study evaluates how once daily enzalutamide affects the metabolism of caffeine and dextromethorphan in men with prostate cancer by measuring concentrations of these drugs and their metabolites in plasma.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, fixed-sequence, crossover drug-drug interaction study in subjects with prostate cancer.

Screening takes place between Day -28 and Day -7, and subjects are admitted to the clinic on Day -1 where they remain until Day 4.

On Day 1, they receive a single oral cocktail containing caffeine and dextromethorphan plus a dose of enzalutamide placebo in order to assess possible effects of excipients of the enzalutamide formulation. On Days 1 to 3 blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) assessment are collected. From Days 4 to 54, (or Day 55 if the subject rolls over into the extension study) the subjects take a daily oral dose of enzalutamide. On Day 28, the subjects return to the clinic where a plasma sample is taken to determine enzalutamide PK exposure. From Days 52 to 55 they are re-admitted to the clinic where a plasma sample is collected on Day 52 for enzalutamide PK exposure.On Day 53, subjects receive a single oral cocktail of caffeine and dextromethorphan concomitantly with enzalutamide. PK samples are collected from Days 53 to 55.

From Day 55 onwards, subjects experiencing clinical benefit may roll over into an extension study. Only subjects who enroll into the extension study continue to receive enzalutamide otherwise daily dosing with enzalutamide is discontinued on Day 54.

An End of Study Visit (ESV) takes place approximately 30 days (±7 days) after the last dose of enzalutamide.

What is being measured

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

  1. PK measured by Pharmacokinetic parameter Maximum concentration (Cmax)

    For the probe substrates (caffeine and dextromethorphan) in combination with enzalutamide PTM and in combination with enzalutamide.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 53 (28 times)

  2. PK measured by Pharmacokinetic parameter Area under the curve (AUC) from the time of dosing to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t)

    For the probe substrates (caffeine and dextromethorphan) in combination with enzalutamide PTM and in combination with enzalutamide.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 53 (28 times)

  3. PK measured by PK parameter area under the curve (AUC) from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-inf)

    For the probe substrates (caffeine and dextromethorphan) in combination with enzalutamide PTM and in combination with enzalutamide.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 53 (28 times)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. PK measured by PK parameters tmax, terminal elimination half-life (t1/2), apparent total systemic clearance after oral dosing (CL/F), apparent volume of distribution during terminal elimination phase (Vz/F) and extrapolated AUC (%AUC)

    Tmax is time to maximum concentration. These PK parameters will be measured for the probe substrates (caffeine and dextromethorphan) in combination with enzalutamide PTM and in combination with enzalutamide.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 53 (28 times)

  2. PK measured by PK parameters Cmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-inf, %AUC, tmax and t1/2

    For 1,7-dimethylxanthine (metabolite caffeine), dextrorphan (metabolite dextromethorphan).

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 53 (28 times)

  3. PK measured by PK parameters Cmax, trough concentrations (Ctrough) at Days 28, 52, 53, 54 and 55, tmax, AUC during the time interval between consecutive dosing (AUCtau), CL/F (parent only) and peak-to-trough ratio (PTR)

    For Enzalutamide, N-desmethyl enzalutamide (M2) and sum of enzalutamide + M2.

    Measured: Day 28 (± 1 day), and Days 52 to 55 (15 times)

  4. Safety and tolerability measured by vital signs, adverse events, laboratory assessments and electrocardiogram

    Measured: Screening (Day -28 to Day -7) to ESV (>153 times)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Caffeine, Dextromethorphan and Enzalutamide in people with Pharmacokinetics of Dextromethorphan and Pharmacokinetics of Caffeine, run by Astellas Pharma Europe B.V. at 1 site in Moldova.

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 7 inclusion and 5 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 27 Jun 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 Moldova. 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?

PK measured by Pharmacokinetic parameter Maximum concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Day 1 and Day 53 (28 times)). 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 27 Jun 2017.
