About this study

Official title: Open-label, Single Arm, Phase 1 Study to Assess the Safety of P2Et Extract Obtained From Caesalpinia Spinosa, in Voluntary Subjects in Colombia

Caesalpinia spinosa extract is rich in gallotannins and other well characterized polyphenols and has a major antioxidant activity. The extract shows immunomodulatory activity in healthy animals and anti-tumor activity in animals with breast cancer and melanoma as well.

The use of P2Et in animals with tumors shows a synergistic effect with doxorubicin in drug-resistant cell lines. In addition, an increase in survival of transplanted animals with a TS/A breast cancer tumor model and treated with P2Et, in conjunction with calreticulin increase is observed.

This open-label, single arm, Phase 1 study intends to assess the safety of P2Et extract obtained from Caesalpinia spinosa, with dose escalation, in healthy voluntary participants in Colombia.

Read the detailed description

The P2Et extract will be self-administered by the participants on a daily basis (600 mg 1 daily capsule, 2 daily capsules for 1,200 mg, 4 daily capsules for 2,400 and 8 daily capsules for 4,800 mg) 1 hour after meals and at the same time every day, from day 1 to day 30.

In the event that the participants presents vomit within 15 minutes after taking P2Et, the participants should take another dose. Should the participant forget any scheduled dose and less than 6 hours have elapsed, the participant must take the dose immediately; if more than 6 hours have elapsed, the subject must wait and take the next scheduled dose.

Dose escalation will be performed to determine the P2Et maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and maximum dose toxicity (MDT). In the escalation phase, the P2Et daily dose will be escalated in the cohort of subjects with minimum dose of 600 mg daily to a maximum of 4,800 mg. Each cohort will be made up of around 3 and 6 subjects, at least 3 subjects will be enrolled in each dosage level. Should MTD is not observed in the first 3 subjects treated in the first month, escalation to the next dosage level will be undertaken. Should 1 or more MTD occur in any dosage level in a subject, 3 subjects will be added to that cohort.

Any dosage level in which 2 out of 6 subjects experience a MTD will be considered intolerable and the previous dose will be considered the P2Et maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose escalation will be terminated. The 3+3 design will be used monthly for the P2Et dose escalation (up to a maximum of 4.8 g/day).

The participants will be followed-up until withdrawal of the protocol therapy. The participants removed from the protocol due to unacceptable adverse events will be followed-up until resolution or stabilization of the adverse event.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing P2Et extract in people with Toxicity and Safety Issues, run by Hospital Universitario San Ignacio at 1 site in Colombia.

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 28 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 13 Mar 2024. 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 Colombia. 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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (time frame: 12 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 13 Mar 2024.
