  • The subject has a primary brain tumor or known brain metastases.
Show all 13Show fewer
  • The subject has an uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • The subject is pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • The subject is known to be positive for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of XL281 Administered Orally to Subjects With Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to determine the safest dose of the multiple Raf kinase inhibitor (including c-Raf, B-Raf, and the activated mutant B-RafV600E) XL281, how often it should be taken, and how well subjects with cancer tolerate XL281. This study will also determine how the body reacts to XL281 when it is taken with and without food, and with and without Pepcid (famotidine), a drug that inhibits stomach acid production.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of once daily or twice daily oral administration of XL281

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits

  2. To assess the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic/preliminary clinical activity relationship following XL281 administration in different tumor types from subjects treated at the MTD

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits

  3. To determine the bioavailability of XL281 under fed and fasted conditions, and with or without the concomitant use of a single dose of famotidine in subjects with solid tumors

    Measured: Assessed during the second, third, and fourth week of the first cycle of dosing

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Plasma pharmacokinetics of once daily or twice daily oral administration of XL281

    Measured: Assessed at periodic visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing XL281 and famotidine in people with Cancer and Non-small-cell Lung Cancer, run by Exelixis at 6 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 9 inclusion and 13 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of once daily or twice daily oral administration of XL281 (time frame: Assessed at periodic visits). The study lists 3 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 13 Oct 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
