About this study

Official title: Evalution of Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of of HPPH in Ascending Dose for Cancer Patients in Phase I Clinical Trial

Phase I study was to investigate the safety and tolerability of the photosensitizer (PS) 2-[1-hexyloxyethyl]-2-devinyl pyropheophorbide-a (HPPH) for injection in patients with Esophageal Cancer. It was to characterize the pharmacokinetics of HPPH and efficacy of HPPH.

Read the detailed description

The present study is phase I study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of multiple ascending injection doses of HPPH in Patients with Esophageal Cancer. Up to 30 patients are planned to be enrolled in 6 cohorts with each cohort consisting of 3-6 patients ( male and/or female patients). In each cohort, patients will receive HPPH and Lyophilized treatment. The dose escalation in Cohorts was from 2.5 to 3, 3.5, 4, 5, and 6mg/m2 of HPPH, respectively, administered intravenous drop infusion over 1 hour, once daily, and a fixed light dose of 150 J/cm delivered 48 hours after infusion of HPPH.

Being tested
HPPH 2.5 mg/m2, HPPH 3 mg/m2, HPPH 3.5 mg/m2, HPPH 4 mg/m2, HPPH 5 mg/m2

What is being measured

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

  1. The number of dose-limiting toxicity

    Dose-limiting toxicity would be assesed by CTCAE4.0

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 10

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Maximum observed concentration (Cmax)

    PK measurement expressed as Cmax for HPPH

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 84

  2. Time to maximum concentration (tmax)

    PK measurement expressed as Tmax for HPPH

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 84

  3. Apparent terminal elimination phase half (t1/2)

    PK measurement expressed as t1/2 for HPPH

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 84

  4. Area under the concentration-time curve over the dosing interval (AUC0-t)

    PK measurement expressed as AUC0-t for HPPH

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 84

  5. Area under the concentration-time curve from zero extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞)

    PK measurement expressed as AUC0-∞ for HPPH

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 84

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HPPH 2.5 mg/m2, HPPH 3 mg/m2 and HPPH 3.5 mg/m2 in people with Esophageal Cancer, run by Zhejiang Hisun Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2018. 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 China. 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?

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?

The number of dose-limiting toxicity (time frame: Day 1 to Day 10). 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 29 Nov 2018.
