About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study Evaluating the Tolerance and Biological Activity of Oral Clioquinol in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Hematological Malignancy

This is an open-label, single arm phase 1 study to evaluate the dose-limiting toxicity, maximum tolerated dose, and recommended phase II dose of Clioquinol in patients with relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies. The study will also characterize Cliquinol's safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamic effect.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single arm study. Approximately 4-48 patients will be enrolled. Patients will receive 800mg/day of Clioquinol at the start of the trial and the dose will be increased by 800mg with each subsequent level until the MTD is determined. Patients will then increase their frequency of the drug. Response to Clioquinol will be determined on day 21 for the 8 and 15 day dosing schedule and on day 28 for the 22 day dosing schedule ( 1 cycle). Patients who have demonstrated a response to the drug will be eligible to receive up to 5 additional cycles at the same dose and frequency every 21 days.

What participants receive

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

  • ClioquinolDrug

    Patients will take Clioquniol at escalating doses depending on when they enter into the trial.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ClioquinolExperimentalPatients will take Clioquniol at various doses depending on which dose level they come into the study at. Once a MTD has been determined, the new patients that enter into the trial will then take it at that level.
Receives: Drug: Clioquinol

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose, and recommended phase II dose. To partially characterize the pharmacokinetics of Clioquinol in plasma following single and multiple oral dosing.

    Measured: Varies

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine the pharmacodynamic effects of Clioquinol on activity of the proteasome and relationship to the steady-state plasma concentrations of Cliquinol following multiple dosing, and to determine the response rate of Cliquinol.

    Measured: Varies

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Clioquinol in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by University Health Network, Toronto at 1 site in Canada.

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 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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 evaluate the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose, and recommended phase II dose. To partially characterize the pharmacokinetics of Clioquinol in plasma following single and multiple oral dosing. (time frame: Varies). 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 Jun 2015.
