About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib, Open-label, Multi-center, Dose-escalation and Expansion Study of an Orally Administered Combination of BEZ235 Plus MEK162 in Adult Patients With Selected Advanced Solid Tumors

This is an open label, dose finding, phase Ib clinical trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or RP2D of the orally administered PI3K/mTOR inhibitor BEZ235 in combination with the MEK1/2 inhibitor MEK162. This combination will be explored in patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC which has progressed on EGFR inhibitors and triple negative breast cancer, as well as pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, malignant melanoma, NSCLC, and other advanced solid tumors with KRAS, NRAS, and/or BRAF mutations. Dose escalation will be guided by a Bayesian logistic regression model with overdose control. At MTD or RP2D, two expansion arms will be opened in order to further assess safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity of the combination of BEZ235 and MEK162.

Study drugs will be administered orally on a continuous schedule, MEK162 bid and BEZ235 qd, a treatment cycle is defined as 28 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Dose Limiting Toxicities

    A complete treatment cycle is defined as 28 days of daily continuois treatment with study drug combination

    Measured: during Cycle 1 of treatment with BEZ235 and MEK162

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events and serious adverse events

    A complete treatment cycle is defined as 28 days of daily continuois treatment with study drug combination

    Measured: from Cycle 1 Day 1 until treatment discontinuation

  2. Overall response rate, duration of response, time to response and progression free survival

    Measured: every 8 weeks of treatment

  3. Time versus plasma concentration profiles of BEZ235 and MEK162

    A complete treatment cycle is defined as 28 days of daily continuois treatment with study drug combination

    Measured: during the first cycle of treatment

  4. Treatment-induced PI3K and MEK/ERK pathway signaling inhibition and evidence of biological activity in tumor

    A complete treatment cycle is defined as 28 days of daily continuois treatment with study drug combination

    Measured: during the first cycle of treatment and at disease progression

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BEZ235 + MEK162 in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific and Solid Tumor, run by Pfizer at 6 sites in 5 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 9 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, Australia, Canada, France, Spain. 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?

Incidence of Dose Limiting Toxicities (time frame: during Cycle 1 of treatment with BEZ235 and MEK162). 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 9 Oct 2020.
