About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine the toxicity and tolerance of Myocet® in children and adolescents with refractory or relapsed malignant glioma, with a dose diminished of 20% of the dose recommended for adults and a dose recommended for adults, administered in single dose in 1-hour perfusion each 21 days.

Other purposes are to determine the recommended dose of Myocet and to assess the response to drug. Pharmacokinetics of doxorubicin (free and encapsulated forms) and its metabolite doxorubicinol during 72 hours after Myocet administration will also be studied.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Doxorubicin in people with Malignant Glioma, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 7 sites in France.

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 19 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 10 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in France. 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?

General health evaluation (time frame: From day 21 post-dose). The study lists 16 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 10 Aug 2016.
