About this study

Official title: Weekly Administration of (bi-)Daily Oral Docetaxel in Combination With Ritonavir in Patients With Normal or Impaired Liver Function

This is an open label, single centre pharmacological and safety study to define the safety and pharmacokinetics of ModraDoc006/r in a weekly dosing schedule in patients with impaired liver function who might have benefit from a weekly docetaxel regime. The safety of ModraDoc006 in combination with ritonavir for the patients with mild and moderate impaired liver function will be evaluated with a dose escalation design.

Read the detailed description

Oral administration of (anticancer) drugs has many advantages above intravenously administered compounds for patients. A major obstacle for development of an oral docetaxel formulation is the observed poor bioavailability of the drug after oral administration. This was efficiently improved in several pre-clinical and early clinical studies by co-administration of the CYP3A4 inhibitor ritonavir and by development of a new oral formulation of docetaxel (ModraDoc006).

Currently, treatment with ModraDoc006/r (i.e. oral docetaxel as tablets of 10 mg combined with a ritonavir dose of 100 mg) has been evaluated in several clinical trials at the NKI. In these trials, patients have been treated with ModraDoc006/r for a duration of up to 72 weeks.

Commonly observed toxicities of ModraDoc006/r in the phase I trials were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and fatigue, mostly being of CTC (Common Toxicity Criteria) grade 1-2 severity and usually not interfering with the therapy. Frequently occurring toxicities of intravenously administered docetaxel, such as neutropenia, hypersensitivity reactions and peripheral polyneuropathy have rarely been observed with ModraDoc006/r.

The established recommended dose for further treatment with ModraDoc006/r is 30mg ModraDoc006 (combined with 100mg ritonavir) in the morning and 20 mg ModraDoc006 (combined with 100 mg ritonavir) in the afternoon, as a bidaily weekly schedule.

Impaired hepatic function The primary goal of this study is to explore the safety and pharmacokinetics of ModraDoc006/r in patients with mild or moderate liver impairment in order to be able to give appropriate and practical dose recommendations in daily clinical practice. According to the recommendations of the EMA and FDA guidelines, the Child-Pugh classification will be used in this study to define different classes of severity of liver impairment. However, patients with Child-Pugh class C score will not be included in the study, because of the expected poor performance status and survival and expected increased toxicity related to severely impaired organ function, for whom the use of ModraDoc006/r is considered contra-indicated.

Patients will receive oral docetaxel (as ModraDoc006 10 mg tablets) and ritonavir (100 mg tablet) once- or bi-daily, once a week in a fasted condition. After the end of the study period of twelve weeks patients will go off study and will immediately be offered the opportunity to embark on the roll over protocol N17DEX. This will ensure fully that the patient will receive ModraDoc006/r in the best interest without limitations.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ControlExperimentalModraDoc006/r will be administered in a continuous weekly dose of 30-20 mg without dose escalation. This is the established recommended phase II dose for patients with normal liver function based on previous phase I trials.
Receives: Drug: ModraDoc006/r
Child-Pugh class AExperimentalModraDoc006/r administration will start treatment with a weekly BID dose of 20-10mg ModraDoc006 in combination with ritonavir. If toxicity is acceptable, after 4 weeks an intra-patient dose-escalation will be initiated, followed by the second dose escalation after another 4 weeks.
Receives: Drug: ModraDoc006/r
Child-Pugh class BExperimentalModraDoc006/r administration will start treatment with a weekly QD dose of 20mg ModraDoc006 in combination with ritonavir. If toxicity is acceptable, after 4 weeks an intra-patient dose-escalation will be initiated, followed by the second dose escalation after another 4 weeks.
Receives: Drug: ModraDoc006/r

What is being measured

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

  1. The AUC of docetaxel (area under the curve)

    The AUC of docetaxel given as bi-daily ModraDoc006 10 mg tablets in combination with ritonavir after administration in patients with normal and impaired liver function

    Measured: Pharmacokinetic plasma sampling during 48 hours in Cycle 1 and Cycle 5 (each cycle is 7 days)

  2. The hematological and non-hematological toxicity profile of oral docetaxel in combination with ritonavir

    The number of CTCAE v.4.03 grade 3-4 toxicities during treatment with ModraDoc006/r

    Measured: Safety and tolerance will be evaluated during the complete study treatment untill 28 days after the last intake, using the CTCAEv4.03 grading system

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ModraDoc006/r in people with Solid Tumor, Adult and Impaired Liver Function, run by Modra Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 15 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2021. 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 Netherlands. 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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 AUC of docetaxel (area under the curve) (time frame: Pharmacokinetic plasma sampling during 48 hours in Cycle 1 and Cycle 5 (each cycle is 7 days)). The study lists 2 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 19 Oct 2021.
