What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of safety and tolerability of BBI608 given in combination with Sorafenib by reporting of adverse events and serious adverse events.

    Measured: 7 month

  2. Assessment of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs).

    Measured: 29 days

  3. Pharmacokinetic profile of BBI608 when administered in combination with Sorafenib.

    Measured: On day 1: Prior to BBI608 dosing and 2,4,6,8,10,12 and 24 hours after the first dose. On day 29: Prior to BBI608 dosing and 2,4,6,8,10,12 and 24 hours after the first dose.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Assessment of the preliminary anti-tumour activity.

    Anti-tumour activity is assessed every 8 weeks from the first dose of BBI608 after the last dose of BBI608.The radiologic assessments will be evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and modified RECIST for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

    Measured: Approximately 7 months

  2. Progression Free Survival

    The time the participant stays on study until progression will be measured and recorded.

    Measured: Approximately 7 month

  3. Overall Survival

    Participants follow-up for overall survival will occur. Maximum follow-up time is 1 year after the initial administration of the last subject.

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BBI608 and Sorafenib in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd. at 1 site in Japan.

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 19 inclusion and 28 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2022. 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 Japan. 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?

Assessment of safety and tolerability of BBI608 given in combination with Sorafenib by reporting of adverse events and serious adverse events. (time frame: 7 month). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02358395, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
