About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Multi-center, Non-randomized, Open Label, Dose Escalation Design Study of Sorafenib (BAY43-9006) in Combination With Eribulin in Subjects With Advanced, Metastatic or Refractory Solid Tumors

This Phase 1 study will be conducted in an open-label, non-randomized, dose-escalation design in subjects with advanced, metastatic or refractory solid malignancy who are not candidates for standard therapy. The study drugs are sorafenib and eribulin mesylate.

Up to 24 subjects with solid tumors will participate in the dose escalation part of the study, and once the maximum tolerated dose is defined, up to 30 subjects with advanced, metastatic or refractory solid tumors will participate in the expansion phase of the study.

Eribulin (mesylate) will be administered intravenously at a fixed dose of 1.4 mg/m2 on Days 1 and 8 of 21-day Cycles.

The starting sorafenib dose (Dose Level 1) is 200 mg twice daily. Sorafenib is given orally, continuously on days 11 to 21 of Cycle 1, and from Day 1 to Day 21 of all subsequent cycles. If 200 mg sorafenib twice daily is tolerated with eribulin, the sorafenib dose will be escalated sequentially to 200 mg morning dose and 400 mg evening dose (Dose Level 2) in a new cohort. If Dose Level 2 is tolerated, a second dose escalation to 400 mg twice daily (Dose Level 3) will be studied in a new cohort. If the starting dose of sorafenib is not tolerated with eribulin, the sorafenib dose will be de-escalated to 200 mg once daily in a new cohort. Subjects will need to receive two cycles of eribulin plus sorafenib therapy and safety data for the first and second cycle needs to be available before the start of the next cohort.

What participants receive

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

  • Sorafenib (Nexavar, BAY43-9006)Drug

    Sorafenib (starting dose of 200 mg bid, level 1) administration will begin on Day 11 of Cycle 1, and will be administered twice daily continuously. If the combination is well tolerated, the dose will be escalated in new cohorts to 200 mg AM and 400 mg PM (level 2), then subsequently to 400 mg bid (level 3).

    If sorafenib starting dose (level 1) is not well tolerated with eribulin, the sorafenib dose will be de-escalated to 200 mg qd (Dose Level -1) in a new cohort.

  • EribulinDrug

    Eribulin: 1.4 mg/m2 as an intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: Up to 30 months

  2. AUC (area under the plasma concentration vs time curve) of BAY43-9006

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

  3. Cmax (maximum drug concentration in plasma after single dose administration) of BAY43-9006

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

  4. QT time, assessed by QTcF / QTcB (QT interval corrected for heart rate according to Fridericia / Bazett)

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical benefit and response measured by RESIST (1.1) criteria

    Measured: Approximately 3-18 weeks depending on tumor response

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sorafenib (Nexavar, BAY43-9006) and Eribulin in people with Neoplasms, run by Bayer at 4 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 4 inclusion and 7 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 27 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Germany, France. 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?

Number of participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Up to 30 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Oct 2015.
