About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Everolimus + Bendamustine in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Hematological Malignancies

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of everolimus when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride in treating patients with cancer of the blood (hematologic cancer) that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or did not get better with a particular treatment (refractory). Everolimus may prevent cancer cells from growing by blocking a protein that is needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving everolimus together with bendamustine hydrochloride may be a better treatment for hematologic cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of everolimus when administered in combination with bendamustine (bendamustine hydrochloride) in defined hematologic malignancies.

II. To determine the safety and tolerability of administering everolimus in combination with bendamustine chemotherapy.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the efficacy of everolimus when administered in combination with bendamustine in adult patients with relapsed/refractory hematological malignancies.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of everolimus.

Patients receive bendamustine hydrochloride intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days 1 and 2 and everolimus orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. MTD of everolimus, defined as the dose that produces dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in =< 1/6 patients, determined by incidence of DLT graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0

    The toxicities observed at each dose level will be summarized in terms of type (organ affected or laboratory determination such as absolute neutrophil count), severity (by NCI CTCAE version 4.0) and nadir or maximum values for the laboratory measures, time of onset (i.e. course number), duration, and reversibility or outcome. Tables will be created to summarize these toxicities and side effects by dose and by course.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence and severity of adverse events as defined by the NCI CTCAE version 4.03

    Measured: Up to 30 days post-treatment

  2. Response rates (complete response, partial response, stable disease)

    Response rate among patients with measurable disease will be summarized by exact binomial confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to 30 days post-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing everolimus and bendamustine hydrochloride in people with Recurrent Adult Diffuse Large Cell Lymphoma and Recurrent Adult Hodgkin Lymphoma, run by University of California, Davis 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 12 inclusion and 18 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 4 Jan 2019. 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?

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?

MTD of everolimus, defined as the dose that produces dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in =< 1/6 patients, determined by incidence of DLT graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 (time frame: 28 days). 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 4 Jan 2019.
