About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of ABT-888 in Combination With Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Advanced Solid Malignancies

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating patients with advanced solid cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving veliparib together with carboplatin and paclitaxel may help kill more tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the recommended dose for phase II studies of veliparib (ABT-888 ) that can be administered in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with advanced solid malignancies. (Stratum I) II. To determine the recommended dose for phase II studies of veliparib that can be administered in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with advanced solid malignancies that harbor a germline BRCA1/2 mutation. (Stratum II) (added 04/07/09)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To define the dose-limiting toxicity and other toxicities associated with the use of this combination.

II. To obtain preliminary evidence of antitumor activity in patients treated with this combination.

III. To evaluate the pharmacokinetic parameters of veliparib, carboplatin, and paclitaxel when administered as a combination.

IV. To conduct correlative science studies.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study of veliparib. Patients are stratified according to BRCA status (no [stratum I] vs yes [stratum II]).

Patients receive carboplatin intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes and paclitaxel IV over 3 hours on day 3 and veliparib orally (PO) twice daily on days 1-7 until the recommended phase II dose is determined. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for at least 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients undergo peripheral blood mononuclear cell collection periodically for pharmacokinetic and biomarker studies.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 4 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recommended phase II dose (RP2D) for each stratum

    The RP2D for each cohort will be defined by the study separately. Standard up \& down dose-escalation scheme to determine the RP2D will be use, and toxicities will be assessed using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

    Toxicities should be attributable to the study drug(s) to constitute DLT. Patients will be considered evaluable for DLT if they are eligible, and if they receive any amount of treatment and experience DLT or complete the first course of treatment

    Measured: During course 1

  2. Frequency of platinum-DNA adducts

    Changes will be summarized as means and standard deviations. A statistical test of the null hypothesis of no change in each variable will be done using the Wilcoxon signed-ranks procedure. Measurements of the two variables at additional time points will be analyzed in a descriptive fashion using tables and plots.

    Measured: At baseline and 4 weeks post-treatment

  3. Incidence of stable disease (SD)

    SD is defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for partial response (PR) nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter (LD) since the treatment started.

    Measured: Measured from the start of the treatment until the criteria for progression are met, assessed up to 4 weeks post-treatment

  4. PAR levels

    Changes will be summarized as means and standard deviations. A statistical test of the null hypothesis of no change in each variable will be done using the Wilcoxon signed-ranks procedure. Measurements of the two variables at additional time points will be analyzed in a descriptive fashion using tables and plots.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks post-treatment

  5. Responses to veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel

    Response will be evaluated in this study using the new international criteria proposed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee. Only those patients who have measurable disease present at baseline, have received at least one cycle of therapy, and have had their disease re-evaluated will be considered evaluable for response.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks post-treatment

  6. Time to progression (TTP)

    Progression will be evaluated in this study using the new international criteria proposed by RECIST. TTP will be displayed for all patients and for patients who have responded; no formal statistical analysis is planned.

    Measured: Time from start of treatment to time of progression, assessed up to 4 weeks post-treatment

  7. Toxicities as assessed by CTCAE v.4.0

    Toxicities will be defined as regimen-related if they are possibly, probably or definitely related to treatment. The maximum grade of toxicity for each category of interest will be recorded for each patient and the summary results will be tabulated by category, grade and dose level. Serious (≥ Grade 3) toxicities will be described on a patient-by-patient basis and will include any relevant baseline data.

    Measured: From the time of their first treatment with veliparib to up to 4 weeks post-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Carboplatin, Laboratory Biomarker Analysis and Paclitaxel in people with Adult Solid Neoplasm and BRCA1 Mutation Carrier, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 7 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 16 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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?

Recommended phase II dose (RP2D) for each stratum (time frame: Up to 4 weeks). 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 22 May 2015.
