About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Niclosamide in Combination With Enzalutamide in Men With Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of niclosamide when given together with enzalutamide in treating patients with castration resistant prostate cancer that has spread from the primary site to other places in the body. Androgens such as testosterone can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs like enzalutamide block androgens from driving tumor growth; however, when androgen receptor splice variants are present, these drugs may not be effective. Niclosamide may decrease the amount of androgen receptor splice variant present within tumor cells, thus promoting the anti-tumor effects of enzalutamide. Giving niclosamide together with enzalutamide may be a better treatment for prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of three-times-daily (TID) oral niclosamide combined with enzalutamide in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) that has progressed on abiraterone (abiraterone acetate).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the effect of niclosamide plus enzalutamide on androgen receptor splice variant (AR-V) expression as determined by quantitative reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (qRT-PCR).

II. Determine the pharmacokinetic profile of three-times-daily (TID) oral niclosamide in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) that has progressed on abiraterone.

III. Determine the prostate specific antigen (PSA) response rate (i.e. proportion of subjects with >= 50% decline in PSA from pre-study baseline) after 28-days of niclosamide plus enzalutamide.

IV. Determine the effect of niclosamide plus enzalutamide on protein expression and the transcriptional program of circulating tumor cells.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of niclosamide.

Patients receive niclosamide orally (PO) TID and enzalutamide PO daily. Treatment continues for 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at days 58 and 88.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities, graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  2. Recommended phase 2 dose

    Measured: Up to 28 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Half-life of niclosamide

    Mean niclosamide concentration versus time will be plotted for each dose cohort. Half-life will be reported as a mean for each dose cohort along with the observed ranges.

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours and 15 days after the first dose of niclosamide

  2. Maximum concentration of niclosamide

    Mean niclosamide concentration versus time will be plotted for each dose cohort. maximum concentration will be reported as a mean for each dose cohort along with the observed ranges.

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours and 15 days after the first dose of niclosamide

  3. Minimum concentration of niclosamide

    Mean niclosamide concentration versus time will be plotted for each dose cohort. Minimum concentration will be reported as a mean for each dose cohort along with the observed ranges.

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours and 15 days after the first dose of niclosamide

  4. PSA response rate

    The percent change in PSA will be presented as a waterfall plot, with the rate of PSA response (i.e. >= 50% decline in PSA from baseline) reported as percentages with 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: Baseline to up to 28 days

  5. Steady state concentration of niclosamide

    Mean niclosamide concentration versus time will be plotted for each dose cohort. Steady state concentration will be reported as means for each dose cohort along with the observed ranges.

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours and 15 days after the first dose of niclosamide

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Enzalutamide, Laboratory Biomarker Analysis and Niclosamide in people with Castration Levels of Testosterone and Castration-Resistant Prostate Carcinoma, run by University of Washington at 1 site in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 16 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 18 Apr 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 United States. 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?

Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities, graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 (time frame: Up to 28 days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02532114, 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 18 Apr 2018.
