What is being measured

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

  1. To assess whether food influences the rate and extent of AZD6244 absorption

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 10

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To determine the pharmacokinetics of both AZD6244 and N-desmethyl AZD6244 in the presence and absence of food

    Measured: Day 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10

  2. To assess the safety and tolerability of AZD6244 in patients with advanced solid malignancies

    Measured: screening to 30 day post last dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD6244 in people with Melanoma and Malignant Melanoma, run by AstraZeneca at 6 sites in 2 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 Aug 2014. 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 Kingdom, Netherlands. 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?

To assess whether food influences the rate and extent of AZD6244 absorption (time frame: Day 1 and Day 10). 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 Aug 2014.
