What participants receive

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

  • MEK162Drug

    MEK162 in an oral formulation. It is a film-coated capsule-shape tablets (i.e. caplets).

Study groups in NCT01469130
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
MEK162ExperimentalMEK162 will be administered orally once on Day 1 of Cycle 1 and continuously on a BID schedule, starting on Day 2 of Cycle 1 and on Day 1 of subsequent cycles. Each cycle will be 28 days in duration. Dose will be escalated and starting dose is 30 mg. Any doses that are missed should be skipped and should not be replaced or made up during the evening dosing or on a subsequent day, whichever applies. The prescribed BID doses should be taken 12 ± 2 hrs apart.
Receives: Drug: MEK162

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Dose limiting toxicities

    Incidence of frequency of Dose limiting toxicities during first 4 weeks will be measured according to the commen terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE).

    Measured: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Incidence and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events, changes in laboratory values

    Incidence and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events, changes in laboratory values will be measured during the treatment.

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Plasma concentration of MEK162 and AR00426032active metabolite of MEK162 and derived PK parameters of MEK162 and the active metabolite.

    Plasma concentration of MEK162 and active metabolite of MEK162 and derived PK parameters of MEK162 and the active metabolite will be measured with serial plasma samples during treatment for first 2 months.

    Measured: 2 months

  3. Tumor responses according to RECIST 1.1

    Tumor responses will be measured according to RECIST 1.1

    Measured: 4 months

  4. Levels of p-ERK in tumor and skin

    Levels of p-ERK in tumor during treatment and skin for first 2 weeks will be measured.

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MEK162 in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by Array Biopharma, now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 2 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 4 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 5 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 2 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 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: 4 weeks). 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 5 Oct 2020.
