About this study

Official title: Imaging the Effect of HSP90 Inhibitor AUY922 on VEGF by Means of 89Zr-bevacizumab PET

Inhibition of Heat Shock Protein (HSP)90 is a new, promising treatment modality for cancer patients, particularly in the setting of resistance. A reliable read out system (biomarker) for the evaluation of early treatment effect is of great importance in the development of this treatment modality, and could contribute to customize this treatment for individual patients. So far, no reliable biomarker has been described for HSP90 effect. Visualizing the effect of HSP90 on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) secretion in vivo in the patient, by whole body 89Zr-bevacizumab uptake, can be of great importance in this respect, and may contribute to tailored made cancer treatment. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effect of HSP90 inhibition by AUY922 on VEGF by means of 89ZR-bevacizumab PET.

Read the detailed description

This feasibility study is designed as a side study to the multicenter, international phase I-II trial with HSP90 inhibitor AUY922 (protocol CAUY922A2101), as part of the biomarker assessment. In protocol CAUY922A2101, section 4, the design of this phase I-II trial is described (p37, 38). Briefly, a dose-escalation study is performed according to phase I design in adult patients with advanced solid malignancies. This part is followed by a dose-expansion study according to a phase II design. In the latter part, breast cancer patients are enrolled that are either refractory to hormone- or trastuzumab treatment (both treatment arms, n=40 patients), on the maximal tolerated dose of AUY922 based on the phase I part of the study. Patients with ER positive, hormone therapy refractory breast cancer, will receive a 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scan as part of the present side study protocol, which will be performed in collaboration with the Royal Marsden Hospital (United Kingdom).

To this end, a 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scan will be performed before (baseline) and during treatment with HSP90 inhibitor AUY922, as described below.

A minimum of six patients will be entered to evaluate whether the effect of HSP90 inhibition by AUY922 can be detected with a 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scan

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the effect of HSP90 inhibition by AUY922 on VEGF by means of 89Zr-bevacizumab PET.

    Primary endpoint: measurement of decreased VEGF compared to baseline. A decline is defined as a decrease of at least 30% in mean Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) in a maximum of three lesions.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 6 Sep 2012. 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 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.

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 evaluate the effect of HSP90 inhibition by AUY922 on VEGF by means of 89Zr-bevacizumab PET. (time frame: 2 years). 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 6 Sep 2012.
