About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Randomized, Open-label, Multi-center, Multiple Dose Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of RO5185426 Administered as 240 mg Tablets to Previously Treated BRAF V600E Positive Metastatic Melanoma Patients

This open-label study will assess the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of RO5185426 administered as 240mg tablets in previously treated patients with metastatic melanoma. Patients will be randomized to receive one of four dose-levels of RO5185426 [RG7204; PLEXXIKON; PLX4032] orally twice daily on days 1 to 15 (morning dose). Starting on day 22, treatment with RO5185426 may be resumed at a dose of 960 mg twice daily and continued until disease progression. Target sample size is <100 patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 8 Hours (AUC[0-8h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 1

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 1

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 24 Hours (AUC[0-24h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 1

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24 hours post-dose on Day 1

  3. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 1

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 1

  4. Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 1

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 1

  5. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 8 Hours (AUC[0-8h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 9

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 9

  6. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 9

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 9

  7. Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 9

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 9

  8. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 8 Hours (AUC[0-8h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 15

  9. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 24 Hours (AUC[0-24h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24 hours post-dose on Day 15

  10. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 168 Hours (AUC[0-168h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24, 28, 72, 76, 168 hours post-dose on Day 15

  11. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24, 28, 72, 76, 168 hours post-dose on Day 15

  12. Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24, 28, 72, 76, 168 hours post-dose on Day 15

  13. Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Clearance of a drug is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Clearance obtained after oral dose (apparent oral clearance) is influenced by the fraction of the dose absorbed.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24, 28, 72, 76, 168 hours post-dose on Day 15

  14. Terminal Elimination Half-Life (t1/2) of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Time measured for vemurafenib plasma concentrations to decrease by one-half (t1/2) was calculated as 0.693 divided by apparent first-order terminal elimination rate constant (0.693/kel).

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 24, 28, 72, 76, 168 hours post-dose on Day 15

  15. Accumulation Ratio of Vemurafenib on Day 15

    Accumulation ratio was calculated as, AUC(0-8) on Day 15 divided by AUC(0-8) on Day 1.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 1 and 15

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Participants With a Confirmed Best Overall Response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)

    Confirmed best overall response was defined as having best objective response as CR or PR, as assessed by investigator and confirmed at least 28 days after initial response. Tumor response was assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1). CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) were required to demonstrate a reduction to normal (short axis less than [<] 10 millimeters [mm]). PR was defined as a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the diameters of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum diameter. Percentage of participants with best overall response of confirmed CR or PR are reported.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years (assessed at Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 3 Day 1, Cycle 5 Day 1, thereafter every 2 cycles and then every 4 cycles after Cycle 13)

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time, in months, from the date of the first study drug administration to the date of death, regardless of the cause of death.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years (assessed at Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 3 Day 1, Cycle 5 Day 1, thereafter every 2 cycles and then every 4 cycles after Cycle 13)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RO5185426 in people with Malignant Melanoma, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 13 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 6 inclusion and 6 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 26 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States, Australia. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Aug 2015). 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?

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 8 Hours (AUC[0-8h]) of Vemurafenib on Day 1 (time frame: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 hours post-dose on Day 1). The study lists 15 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 NCT01107418, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 26 Aug 2015.
