About this study
Official title: A Phase I Study With Expansion Cohort of Concurrent GDC-0084 With Radiation Therapy for Patients With Solid Tumor Brain Metastases or Leptomeningeal Metastases Harboring PI3K Pathway Mutations
This study will test the safety of the study drug, GDC-0084, in combination with radiation therapy in people who have solid tumor brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases. All participants will have cancer with a PIK3CA mutation. The researchers will test increasing doses of GDC-0084 to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants. The study will also try to find out if the combination of the study drug with radiation is effective against participants' cancer.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
maximum tolerated dose (MTD)
Four dose levels will be examined and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be identified.
The standard 3+3 dose-escalation scheme for this study is as follows. Patients will be accrued to the study in cohorts of 3. For any given dose an initial cohort of 3 patients will be treated at that dose.The dose level will be escalated if none of the 3 exhibits any dose limiting toxicity (DLT).
Measured: 1 year
Secondary outcomes (1)
local recurrence rate
For patients with brain metastases, response determination will be determined using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases criteria28. For patients with leptomeningeal metastases, response assessment will be determined by investigator based on MRI.
Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing GDC-0084 and whole brain radiation therapy radiation in people with Brain Metastases and Leptomeningeal Metastasis, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 9 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 21 inclusion and 10 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 9 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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 (MTD) (time frame: 1 year). 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 22 Apr 2026.
