About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Dose-Escalation Study of the Pan-Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) Inhibitor PCI-24781 in Lymphoma

The first part of the study will determine the highest dose of study drug that can be taken without causing serious side effects in patients with lymphoma. The appropriate dose determined from the first part of the study will be used in the second part of the study to assess disease response in 2 different types of lymphoma patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PCI-24781Drug

    Phase I Dose Escalation: Up to 5 cohorts will receive PCI-24781 orally at doses starting at 30mg/m2 two times a day approximately 4-6 hours apart ("BID"), up to 90mg/m2 administered 5 days/week during the first 21 days of each 28 day cycle until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached. If a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) occurs, then the next cohort will receive PCI-24781 BID for 7 days every other week (2 times in a 28 day cycle).

    Phase II Efficacy Evaluation: All patients will receive PCI-24781 orally at the dosage and regimen determined in Phase I.

What is being measured

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

  1. Phase I (Dose Escalation Phase): MTD and DLTs of PCI-24781 Administered Twice Daily (BID) Measure: Disease Response

    Number of patients experienced DLT in each cohort

    Measured: From the Date of PCI-24781 first administration to Cycle 2 Day 1

  2. Phase II: Overall Response Rate (CR+PR)

    Measured: From first response assessment (day 22 to 28 of Cycle 2) to last response assessment on day 22-28 in even-numbered cycles

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing PCI-24781 in people with Lymphoma and Hodgkin Disease, run by Pharmacyclics LLC. at 8 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 24 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 7 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Apr 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Phase I (Dose Escalation Phase): MTD and DLTs of PCI-24781 Administered Twice Daily (BID) Measure: Disease Response (time frame: From the Date of PCI-24781 first administration to Cycle 2 Day 1). 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 NCT00724984, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 7 Apr 2014.
