About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of MLN8237, an Oral Selective Small Molecule Inhibitor of Aurora A Kinase, in Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors

RATIONALE: MLN8237 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of MLN8237 and to see how well it works in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors

Read the detailed description

1.1 Primary Aims 1.1.1 To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose of MLN8237 administered orally once daily for 7 days every 21 days to children with refractory solid tumors. 1.1.2 To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose of MLN8237 administered orally twice daily for 7 days every 21 days to children with refractory solid tumors. 1.1.3 To define and describe the toxicities of MLN8237 administered on this schedule.

1.1.4 To characterize the pharmacokinetics of MLN8237 in children with refractory cancer.

1.2 Secondary Aims 1.2.1 To preliminarily define the antitumor activity of MLN8237 within the confines of a Phase I study. 1.2.2 To obtain initial Phase II efficacy data on the anti-tumor activity of MLN8237 in children with relapsed-refractory neuroblastoma using the once daily dosing schedule. 1.2.3 To explore the relationship between polymorphic variations in the UDPglucuronyltransferase gene UGT1A1 and exposure to MLN8237.

1.2.4 To assess two common polymorphic variants in the Aurora A kinase gene (Phe31Ile and Val57Ile) thought to potentially influence tumorigenesis. 1.2.5 To preliminarily examine the relationsh

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine maximum tolerated dose and RP2D administered once daily on Days 1-7

    Measured: Up to 21 days (1st cycle) of protocol therapy

  2. Determine maximum tolerated dose and RP2D administered po BID on Days 1-7

    Measured: Up to 21 days (1st cycle) of protocol therapy

  3. Adverse events as assessed by (CTCAE) version 4.0

    DLT will be defined as possibly, probably or definitely attributable to MLN8237. The DLT observation period for the purposes of dose-escalation will be the first cycle of therapy

    Measured: Every 21 days (each cycle) of protocol therapy for up to 35 cycles [up to 105 weeks]

  4. PK Profile: MLN8237 concentrations in plasma samples

    single-dose AUC, trough estimation, t½ of accumulation

    Measured: 30 min after the first dose, and at 1,2, 3, 4, 6-8, 24 hours, Day 4 and 7 in Cycle 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MLN8237 in people with Unspecified Childhood Solid Tumor, Excluding CNS and Neuroblastoma, run by Children's Oncology Group.

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 13 inclusion and 6 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 9 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Determine maximum tolerated dose and RP2D administered once daily on Days 1-7 (time frame: Up to 21 days (1st cycle) of protocol therapy). The study lists 4 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 NCT02444884, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Feb 2016.
