About this study

Official title: Phase 1B Open Label Study to Assess the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Clinical Activity of Nuc-1031 Given on Days 1 & 8 With Carboplatin on Day 1, q3-weekly for 6 Cycles in Participants With Recurrent Ovarian Cancer.

A first in human experimental treatment in which an experimental medicine,Nuc-1031, is used in combination with a standard cancer medicine, carboplatin, to treat ovarian cancer which reappear after standard cancer treatment. The aim of the trial is to determine safety, effectiveness, and clinical activity of this combination treatment.

Read the detailed description

Nuc-1031 and carboplatin combination is a new experimental treatment for ovarian cancer which reappear after standard chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is the name for drug treatments to kill or control the growth of cancer cells. Although there is some evidence from laboratory and clinical studies that Nuc-1031 is effective in the treatment of ovarian cancer, it has not yet been tested in combination with another chemotherapy drug. So this combination treatment is classed as a first in human study(Phase1B). The aim of the study is to investigate whether adding Nuc-1031 to carboplatin can improve the benefits of chemotherapy.

Other purposes are to find out whether Nuc-1031 is safe to give with carboplatin, to identify the correct dose of Nuc-1031 when given with carboplatin and establish how effective the combination is at treating ovarian cancer. This study is also designed to enable us to find out whether Nuc-1031 adds further benefit, over and above that achieved by carboplatin alone, when treating ovarian cancer. and carboplatin combination will be given in six cycles. Each cycle is 3 weeks long. On first day of first week of each cycle (day1), selected study participants will receive one dose of both Nuc-1031 and Carboplatin chemotherapy. Following this, the study participant will receive a second dose of Nuc-1031 alone on first day of second week (day 8). This schedule will be repeated every 3 weeks for 6 cycles.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of Nuc-1031 and carboplatin when administered in combination.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Nuc-1031 administered in combination with carboplatin measured by adverse events (AE) and changes from baseline in vital signs, clinical laboratory parameters, and electrocardiography (ECG) assessments.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of Nuc-1031 administered in combination with carboplatin in participants with recurrent ovarian cancer.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. To evaluate the clinical benefit rate (CBR) of Nuc-1031 administered in combination with carboplatin in participants with recurrent ovarian cancer.

    Measured: 1 year

  4. To evaluate the progression free survival (PFS) of participants with recurrent ovarian cancer treated with Nuc-1031 in combination with carboplatin.

    Measured: 1 year

  5. To evaluate Overall Best Response, utilising the evaluation criteria determined by the Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup (GCIG), combining the change in CA125 from baseline with RECIST 1.1 assessment

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Nuc-1031 and Carboplatin in people with Recurrent Ovarian Cancer, run by Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 11 inclusion and 12 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 18 May 2021. 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 Kingdom. 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?

To determine the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of Nuc-1031 and carboplatin when administered in combination. (time frame: 1 year). 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 18 May 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
