Trial summary

PI3K signaling is a hallmark of many cancers. Subsets of cancers become dependent on PI3K pathway signaling as a result of mutations of the PIK3CA gene itself or of regulators of PI3K (e.g. PTEN, HER2). As a consequence, pathway mutated tumors are particularly sensitive towards PI3K-pathway inhibition. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase Ib Study of the Combination of BKM120 and Cisplatin or Carboplatin in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

PI3K signaling is a hallmark of many cancers. Subsets of cancers become dependent on PI3K pathway signaling as a result of mutations of the PIK3CA gene itself or of regulators of PI3K (e.g. PTEN, HER2). As a consequence, pathway mutated tumors are particularly sensitive towards PI3K-pathway inhibition. BKM120 is a potent and highly specific oral pan-class I PI3K-inhibitor.

The study FM-11-F01b is a phase Ib single institution study using the combination of BKM120 and cisplatin or carboplatin in patient with pathologically confirmed recurrent or metastatic advanced solid tumor, for which treatment with a platinum agent is indicated (preferentially head and neck, NSCLC, ovary, endometrial).

The primary objective of the study is to define the phase II recommended dose of daily oral BKM120 and cisplatin (Group 1) or carboplatin (Group 2), given intravenously (IV) on day 1 every 3 weeks.

Read the detailed description

Despite recent progresses in antineoplastic therapy durable cancer remission is still infrequent in many solid tumors and new treatment options are needed for patients whose cancer has progressed following standard therapies. There is an increasing interest of evaluating new combinations of cytotoxics with new molecule targeted agents which could increase antitumor activity.

itor. The study treatment foreseen BKM120 administered on a continuous once daily dosing schedule at a dose of 60, 80 or 100 mg (p.o.) plus Carboplatin or Cisplatin. Cisplatin 75 mg/mq will be administered as a 2 hours intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. Carboplatin AUC 5 (or AUC 6 if dose level 3 has been completed) will be administered as a 30 minutes intravenous infusion diluted in 250 mL of normal saline every 3 weeks.

This is a single institution phase I study. Up to 3 dose levels of daily BMK120 will be studied. A standard 3 + 3 phase I dose escalation design will be used for both Group 1 and Group 2. Dose escalation in Group 1 and Group 2 will be mutually independent.

The primary objective of the study is to define the phase II recommended dose of daily oral BKM120 and cisplatin (Group 1) or carboplatin (Group 2), given intravenously (IV) on day 1 every 3 weeks. BKM120 and carboplatin or cisplatin.

What participants receive

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

  • BKM120-CISDrug

    Also called Buparlisib (BKM120), CISPLATINO TEVA

    BKM120 will be delivered orally once daily on continuous at the dose of 60 mg (dose level 1), 80 mg (dose level 2) and 100 (dose level 3). Cisplatin will be delivered intravenously at the dose of 75 mg/m2 on day 1 every 3 weeks at each dose level of BKM120.

    In the absence of BKM120 DLT, each level will be administered to 3 patients A minimum of 2 cycles per each dose level will be administered in the absence of disease progression or toxicity

  • BKM120-CARBODrug

    Also called Buparlisib (BKM120), CARBOPLATIN TEVA

    BKM120 will be delivered orally once daily on continuous at the dose of 60 mg (dose level 1), 80 mg (dose level 2) and 100 (dose level 3). Carboplatin will be delivered intravenously at AUC 5 on day 1 every 3 weeks at each dose level of BKM120. Should dose level 3 be completed, carboplatin will be given at AUC 6 and BKM120 at 100 mg.

    In the absence of BKM120 DLT, each level will be administered to 3 patients A minimum of 2 cycles per each dose level will be administered in the absence of disease progression or toxicity

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with dose limiting toxicities in each of the study dose levels

    Determination of phase II recommended dose of daily oral BKM120 and cisplatin (Group 1) or carboplatin (Group 2), based upon drug related Dose Limiting Toxicities as described in the protocol at the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 22 days)

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Response rate

    Defined as the percentage of complete or partial responders assessed by RECIST criteria (v1.1)

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BKM120-CIS and BKM120-CARBO in people with Solid Tumors, run by Fondazione Michelangelo at 1 site in Italy.

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 24 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 20 Jun 2018. 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 Italy. 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?

Number of participants with dose limiting toxicities in each of the study dose levels (time frame: 36 months). 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 20 Jun 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
