About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label, Non-Randomized, Dose-Escalating Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of TAS-119 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

A Phase 1, Open-Label, Non-Randomized, Dose-Escalating Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of TAS-119 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, open-label, non-randomized, dose escalation study of TAS-119 evaluating the safety, tolerability, PK, pharmacogenomics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumour activity in patients with advanced and unresectable solid tumours. The study will evaluate TAS-119 monotherapy, employing two sequential phases.

  • A Dose Escalation Phase
  • An Expansion Phase

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TAS-119 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Taiho Oncology, Inc. at 6 sites in 5 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 6 inclusion and 3 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 4 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Spain, United States, Italy, Netherlands, 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?

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.03 (time frame: Up to 2.5 Years). 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 NCT02448589, which also lists 20 linked publications.

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 4 Sep 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
