About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of CNTO 328 (Siltuximab) in Combination With Bortezomib and Dexamethasone for Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and the tolerability of siltuximab up to 11.0 mg/kg in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Read the detailed description

This study is an open-label (both physician and patient know the name of the study drug), multicenter (more than one site) study of siltuximab in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma receiving siltuximab in combination with bortezomib/dexamethasone to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (how drugs are absorbed in the body, how they are distributed within the body and how they are removed from the body over time), efficacy and immunogenicity (the ability to induce immune responses). This study is planned with a dose escalation of siltuximab to levels of 5.5 mg/kg (Dose Level 1) and 11.0 mg/kg (Dose Level 2) given intravenously. Recommended doses will be determined based on the incidence of dose-limiting toxicity in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma when siltuximab at dose levels of 5.5 mg/kg and 11.0 mg/kg is administered with bortezomib/dexamethasone. Treatment with siltuximab will be started at Dose Level 1, and treatment at Dose Level 2 will not be started until completing the safety evaluation at the end of the observation period of Cycle 1 for all patients at Dose level 1. Once 11.0 mg/kg is determined as a recommended dose, the dose for patients whose starting dose is 5.5 mg/kg, and who have not achieved complete response, can be escalated to 11.0 mg/kg based on patient consent and investigator discretion in the next cycle. Siltuximab will be given at 5.5 or 11.0 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 1 hour on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until progression. Twice-weekly intravenous administration of bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 (Days 1, 4, 8, and 11) will be followed by a 10-day rest period (Days 12-21). Four-per-week oral administration of dexamethasone 20 mg (Days 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11 and 12) will be followed by a 9-day rest period (Days 13-21).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Siltuximab in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K. at 5 sites in Japan.

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 15 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 19 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Japan. 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 (reason given: Protocol was stopped due to the safety issue in Global). 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?

Number of patients with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability (time frame: Up to 14 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 NCT01309412, 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 19 May 2014.
