About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of VS-5584, a Dual PI3K/mTOR Inhibitor, Administered With a Fixed Dose of VS-6063, a Focal Adhesion Kinase Inhibitor, in Subjects With Relapsed Malignant Mesothelioma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate rising dose levels of VS-5584 administered in combination with a fixed dose of VS-6063 in subjects with relapsed malignant mesothelioma to determine a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for further development of this combination in this indication.

Read the detailed description

This study is comprised of 2 sequential parts: Part 1 (Dose Escalation of VS-5584) and Part 2 (Expansion). Up to 56 evaluable subjects (i.e., subjects who complete at least 1 cycle [21 days] of therapy) will be enrolled, assuming that:

  • Up to 6 dose levels of VS-5584 are studied in Part 1 (Dose Escalation of VS-5584) in combination with a fixed dose of VS-6063 at 400 mg twice daily (BID) with a maximum of 6 subjects enrolled per VS-5584 dose level, for a total of up to 36 subjects (exclusive of replacement subjects).
  • Up to an additional 20 evaluable subjects may be enrolled in Part 2, the expansion portion of the study. Subjects will be treated with VS-5584 at the RP2D and schedule determined in the dose escalation portion of the study in combination with a fixed dose of VS-6063.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • VS-5584 and VS-6063Drug

    Starting dose of VS-5584 will be 20mg taken once daily, 3x/week of each 21 day cycle. All subjects will also receive 2x/day treatment with 400mg VS-6063 in 21 day cycles. Number of Cycles: until progression or unacceptable toxicity develops.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    Dose Escalation Phase: Frequency of DLTs at each dose level associated with administration of VS-5584 and VS-6063 in a 21 day cycle

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Safety and tolerability of the combination of VS-5584 and VS-6063

    Dose Escalation Phase and Expansion Phase: A composite by dose level to include incidence of AEs, SAEs (overall and severity), laboratory abnormalities, ECGs, vital signs, Karnofsky Performance Status, dose interruptions and dose reductions as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: 16 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

  2. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 plasma area under the curve from time zero to last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

  3. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 time to reach maximum observed concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

  4. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 area under the curve from time zero to extrapolated infinite time (AUCO-inf)

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

  5. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 apparent oral clearance (CL/F)

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

  6. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F)

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

  7. Pharmacokinetics of VS-5584 & VS-6063 trough plasma concentration

    Measured: 0-48 hours per patient

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing VS-5584 and VS-6063 in people with Relapsed Malignant Mesothelioma, run by Verastem, Inc. at 4 sites in 2 countries.

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 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 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 30 Jan 2017.
