About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Dose-Ranging Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Azacitidine Administered Subcutaneously (SC) and as Different Oral Formulations in Subjects With Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS), Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML), Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), Lymphoma, and Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to compare the amount of drug that gets into the bloodstream between different tablets taken by mouth and an injection under the skin.

  • azacitidineDrug

    Also called Vidaza

    Arm 1:

    Cycle 1 (PK Phase) - Subjects will receive a single SC dose of 75 mg/m2 on Days 1 and 15. Single oral doses of a given formulation of azacitidine will be administered in increasing doses on Days 3 and 5, and at doses calculated to deliver 80% and 120% of the SC exposure, up to a maximum dose of 600 mg on Days 17 and 19.

    Cycles 2 and beyond - (Treatment phase) Oral azacitidine will be administered in a dose calculated to deliver 100% of the SC exposure up to a maximum of 600 mg on days 1 - 7 of a 28 day cycle.

    Arm 2:

    All Cycles - Oral azacitidine will be administered a maximum of 600 mg on Days 1 - 7 of a 28 days cycle.

What is being measured

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

  1. To estimate the dose for a given oral formulation that would yield similar exposure [area under the curve (AUC)] to 75 mg/m2 of the subcutaneous formulation.

    Measured: 1 - 18 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. To determine the oral bioavailability of up to 6 different oral formulations in comparison to the subcutaneous formulation

    Measured: 1 - 18 months

  2. To assess the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous and oral formulations of azacitidine

    Measured: 1 - 18 months

  3. To assess response rates

    Measured: 1 - 18 months

  4. To assess RBC transfusion independence

    Measured: 1 - 18 months

  5. To investigate the pharmacokinetics of oral azacitidine

    Measured: 1 -18 months

  6. To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of oral azacitidine

    Measured: 1 -18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing azacitidine in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by Celgene at 11 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 10 inclusion and 9 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 8 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 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?

To estimate the dose for a given oral formulation that would yield similar exposure [area under the curve (AUC)] to 75 mg/m2 of the subcutaneous formulation. (time frame: 1 - 18 months). 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 NCT00761722, 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 8 Nov 2019.
