About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of PTK787/ZK222584 (NSC#719335) in Patients With Unresectable Malignant Mesothelioma

RATIONALE: PTK787/ZK 222584 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of PTK787/ZK 222584 in treating patients with unresectable malignant mesothelioma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the efficacy of PTK787/ZK 222584, in terms of 3-month progression-free survival, in patients with malignant mesothelioma.
  • Determine the response rate in patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.
  • Determine the overall and failure-free survival of patients treated with this drug.
  • Correlate pretreatment circulating serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet-derived growth factor, and VEGF mRNA isoforms with response in patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral PTK787/ZK 222584 daily. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 2 months for 1 year, every 4 months for 1 year, and then every 6 months for 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PTK787/ZK 222584 in people with Malignant Mesothelioma, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology at 80 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 1 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 80 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Survival (time frame: Up to 3 years post-treatment). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00053885, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 1 Jul 2016.
