About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of MK-2206 in Patients With Progressive, Recurrent/Metastatic Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

This phase II trial studies how well Akt inhibitor MK2206 works in treating patients with progressive, recurrent, or metastatic adenoid cyst carcinoma (cancer). Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the confirmed response rate of patients with progressive, recurrent/metastatic adenoid cyst carcinoma (ACC) treated with v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (Akt) inhibitor MK2206 (MK-2206).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety/tolerability for MK-2206 in these patients.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To explore potential genetic/cytogenetic/histopathologic predictors of clinical outcome (i.e., response, PFS, OS) to MK-2206.

II. To explore the hypothesis that MK-2206-mediated Akt inhibition and downregulation of v-myb avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog (c-myb) protein levels in ACC tumors correlates to clinical outcome (i.e., response, PFS, OS).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive Akt inhibitor MK2206 orally (PO) once weekly for 4 weeks. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for up to 3 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Confirmed Response Rate (Complete Response + Partial Response) According to RECIST Version 1.1

    Confirmed response rate will be reported as the number of participants achieving either a complete response or partial response (using RECIST v1.1) divided by the number of evaluable participants. In order for a participant to be a confirmed objective responder, they must achieve a PR or CR on consecutive evaluations, at least 4 weeks apart.

    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions and normalization of tumor biomarkers.

    Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD.

    Measured: Up to 32 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Median Progression Free Survival

    Progression Free Survival is defined as the time from registration to the earliest date of documentation of disease progression or death. The distribution of time to progression will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.

    Measured: Time of study entry to progression or death, up to 3 years after registration

  2. Overall Survival

    Overall Survival is defined as the time from registration to death. The distribution of survival will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-MeierEstimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology.

    Measured: Time of study entry to death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years from registration

  3. Incidence of Toxicities of Akt Inhibitor MK-2206

    Safety will be assessed in terms of the number of participants reporting grade 3 or higher adverse events as evaluated by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0 (CTCAE).

    Measured: Time to first treatment to up to 30 days after completion of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Akt Inhibitor MK2206 and Laboratory Biomarker Analysis in people with Recurrent Oral Cavity Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma and Recurrent Salivary Gland Carcinoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 51 sites in United States.

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 14 inclusion and 13 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 1 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 51 sites in United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Jun 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?

Confirmed Response Rate (Complete Response + Partial Response) According to RECIST Version 1.1 (time frame: Up to 32 weeks). 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 NCT01604772, 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 1 May 2019.
