About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose-finding and Pharmacokinetic Study of DpC, Administered Orally to Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation and pharmacokinetic study.

Read the detailed description

Multicenter, open-label, phase 1 study of DpC administered orally to patients with advanced solid tumors. The study will be conducted in two parts. In the first phase successive cohorts of patients (3+3) will receive escalating doses of DpC until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached. MTD is based on tolerability observed during the first 28 days of treatment. The second part of the study involves treatment of expansion cohorts (10-15 patients each) in specific indications to confirm the tolerability of treatment at the recommended phase 2 dose and schedule and evaluate evidence of anti-tumor activity.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recommended phase 2 dose as determined by number of participants at each dose level with dose limiting toxicities

    Determine recommended phase 2 dose

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Maximum DpC plasma concentration [Cmax] following dosing on Days 1 and 28 based on blood draws taken at 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after dosing

    Maximum DpC plasma concentration

    Measured: 30 months

  2. Area under the DpC plasma concentration vs. time curve [AUC] following dosing on Days 1 and 28 based on blood draws taken at 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after dosing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DpC in people with Neoplasms, run by Collaborative Medicinal Development Pty Limited at 4 sites in Australia.

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 11 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 21 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Australia. 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?

Recommended phase 2 dose as determined by number of participants at each dose level with dose limiting toxicities (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 21 Feb 2019.
