About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Irinotecan for Patients With Abnormal Liver or Renal Function or With Prior Pelvic Radiation Therapy

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Irinotecan may be effective in treating patients with abnormal liver or kidney function or who have received radiation therapy.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of irinotecan in treating patients with solid tumors or lymphoma who have abnormal liver or kidney function or who have had previous radiation therapy to the pelvis.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of irinotecan in patients with solid tumors or lymphoma who have liver or renal dysfunction or have had prior pelvic radiation. II. Characterize the pharmacokinetics of irinotecan in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study. Patients are stratified according to prior pelvic radiation therapy (yes vs no). Patients with no prior pelvic radiation are further stratified according to AST, bilirubin, and creatinine levels. Patients receive irinotecan IV over 90 minutes every 3 weeks for a total of 2 courses. After patients are reevaluated, treatment may continue in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3 to 6 patients receive escalating doses of irinotecan. Dose escalation proceeds within each stratum until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose below that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 75 patients will be accrued for this study at a rate of 2-3 patients per month.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing irinotecan hydrochloride in people with Lymphoma and Small Intestine Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 45 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?

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 21 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 45 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 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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00003368, 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 21 Mar 2013.
