About this study

Official title: Phase IIb Open-label Trial of SUBA™-Itraconazole in Subjects With Basal Cell Carcinoma Nevus Syndrome (BCCNS)

The study will assess the safety and efficacy of SUBA-Cap in subjects with Basal Cell Carcinoma Nevus Syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Single arm, phase IIb, multi-center, open-label study evaluating the use of oral SUBA-Cap in subjects with Basal Cell Carcinoma Nevus Syndrome and non-metastatic Basal Cell Carcinoma.

Following informed consent, subjects will undergo a skin biopsy for Gli1 analysis and an assessment of extent of disease using both tumor measurements (using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors criteria) and color photographs of the skin.

Subjects will receive daily oral SUBA-Cap, at a starting dose of 150 mg twice daily (BID). Reassessments of disease will be conducted at weeks 4, 8, 16, and then every 8 weeks thereafter. Subjects with evidence of response (partial or complete) will be re-evaluated at least 4 weeks later for confirmation. Subjects may continue to receive SUBA-Cap until disease progression (defined as the appearance of one or more new lesions or ulceration of a target lesion) that requires a change in therapy (surgical intervention or use of other systemic therapy) or the appearance of unacceptable side effects. Pharmacokinetic assessments (serial trough levels) will be performed at defined intervals and, when possible, prior to and following any dose adjustment. Skin biopsies will be taken for Gli1 expression at defined intervals.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SUBA-Itraconazole in people with Basal Cell Carcinoma in Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome, run by HedgePath Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 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 22 inclusion and 16 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 5 Aug 2020. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Response rate of BCC lesions (time frame: Up to 26 weeks). 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 5 Aug 2020.
