About this study

Official title: Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of ASLAN001 in Combination With Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil or Cisplatin and Capecitabine

This is a phase IB study to assess the safety and tolerability of ASLAN001 when given in combination with either Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil or Cisplatin and Capecitabine, with a view to identifying the recommended Phase II dose.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, Phase I, dose escalation study of ASLAN001 given in combination with Regimen A or Regimen B, in patients with metastatic solid tumors, eligible to receive the cisplatin/5-fluorouracil or cisplatin/capecitabine regimen.

Dose of ASLAN001 starts from 400mg BID; then, dose escalation to 500mg BID or dose de-escalation to 300mg BID will depend on DLTs observed in cohort.

Regimen A: Depends on preferred medical practice, Cohort 1A will receive ASLAN001 400 mg BID in combination with cisplatin 80 mg/m2 IV infusion and 5 fluorouracil 800 mg/m2/day IV infusion for 5 days every 3 weeks; or will receive ASLAN001 400 mg BID in combination with Cisplatin 35 mg/m2 24-hour infusion for day 1 and day 8, 5-fluorouracil 2,000 mg/m2 and Leucovorin 300mg/m2 24-hour infusion for day 1, day 8 and day 15 every 4 weeks.

Regimen B: Cohort 1B will receive ASLAN001 400 mg BID in combination with cisplatin 80 mg/m2 IV infusion and oral capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 BID for 14 days every 3 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ASLAN001, cisplatin + capecitabine and cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil (or+ Leucovorin) in people with Solid Tumor, run by ASLAN Pharmaceuticals at 3 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 18 inclusion and 10 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 25 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Taiwan, Hong Kong. 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?

Safety and Tolerability of ASALN001 (time frame: First 2 cycles). 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 25 Oct 2018.
