About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 With Expansion Cohort, Open-Label, Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of Intravenously Infused IT-141 in Subjects With Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors

IT141 is a novel nanoparticle formulation of SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan, and is intended to deliver more drug to the tumor with reduced toxicity on normal tissues. The study is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of IT-141, and to investigate pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters and possible pharmacodynamics (PD) relationships. Patients will also be monitored for any response to therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IT-141 in people with Cancer and Neoplasms, run by Intezyne Technologies, Inc. at 2 sites 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 14 inclusion and 17 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 22 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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 was stopped early (reason given: Terminated by sponsor.). 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?

Maximum tolerated dose of IT-141 administered once every 2 weeks in patients with refractory solid tumors (time frame: 18 months). 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 NCT03096340, 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 22 Dec 2020.
