About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II, Non-Randomized,Multiple-Dose,Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of TNX-650 in Patients With Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of TNX-650 for Injection when administered to patients with refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is a lymphoid malignancy that accounts for approximately 7,000 to 8,000 new cancer cases per year in the United Sates. It occurs with a bimodal age-incidence distribution peaking in the 15- to 30-year old and 50- to 60-year old age groups. The pathological hallmark of the disease is the presence of malignant Reed Sternberg (RS) cells. Reed-Sternberg cells are interspersed among a heterogeneous population of non-malignant reactive cells, including T cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, B lymphocytes, plasma cells, histiocytes, fibroblasts, and stromal cells.

While more than 80% of patients will respond to initial radiotherapy or combination chemoradiotherapy, some patients will experience early relapse after initial therapy or be refractory to first-line therapy. These patients may be treated with second-line therapy, which may include autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Patients with HL who relapse after first- and second-line therapy, or who are refractory to therapy, with or without autologous BMT, have a poor prognosis. The long-term event-free survival rate in this patient group is less than 10%; median survival is 16 months. At present, these patients have no treatment options other than investigational therapies.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the safety and tolerability of TNX-650 for Injection when administered to patients with refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL)

  2. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of TNX-650 for Injection

  3. To determine the systemic exposure to TNX-650 for Injection in patients with refractory HL

  4. To determine phosphorylated STAT-6 and IL-13Rα1 levels in tumor samples, and serum IL 13 levels, which may be useful as early prognostic indicators of efficacy in later clinical studies

  5. To determine the preliminary efficacy of TNX-650 for Injection at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or pharmacologically active dose, if MTD is not reached, based on tumor assessments using computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To determine the safety profile of TNX-650 for Injection at the MTD

  2. To determine phosphorylated STAT-6 and IL-13Rα1 levels in tumor samples, and serum IL 13 levels, which may be useful as early prognostic indicators of efficacy in later clinical studies

  3. To determine the preliminary efficacy of TNX-650 for Injection at the MTD, based on tumor assessments using CT or MRI, and FDG-PET

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing TNX-650 in people with Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Tanox at 2 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 17 inclusion and 12 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 9 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 combined 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Fatai Osinowo, MD (713-578-4332, fosinowo@tanox.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the safety and tolerability of TNX-650 for Injection when administered to patients with refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL). The study lists 5 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 9 May 2008.
