About this study

Official title: Phase 1/2 Study of the Combination of a Mouse Monoclonal Antibody to OX40 and Ipilimumab in Patients With Metastatic Melanoma

This is an open label, two-phase study combining a dose escalation Phase 1 with a proof-of-concept Phase 2 in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma, for whom treatment with ipilimumab is indicated.

The purpose of the Phase 1 is to determine the Anti-OX40 Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the secondary objectives are anti-OX40 pharmacokinetics, biological activity and the tumor response assessed by the Immune-related Response Criteria.

The purpose of Phase 2 is to determine tumor response (by irRC) and the secondary objectives are anti-OX40 pharmacokinetics, biological activity and Safety/Tolerability.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess safety and tolerability according to the National Cancer Institute CTCAE v4.0 (Phase 1 and 2)

    Laboratory tests, vital sign measurements, physical exams and patient interviews will be performed to detect new abnormalities and deteriorations of any pre-existing conditions

    Measured: Up to 16 weeks

  2. Assess Tumor Response by the Immune-related Response Criteria (Phase 2)

    Tumor Response by irRC is defined as irPR or irCR over a period of at least 4 weeks

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12 & week 16

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Determine Anti-OX40 serum concentrations

    The serum concentration of Anti-OX40 (CD134) will be determined from its binding to OX40 as measured by ELISA

    Measured: Baseline, on days 1, 3 & 5 30 minutes after Anti-OX40 end of infusion, and on days 8 and 15

  2. Assess the biological activity of anti-OX40 in combination with ipilimumab

    The biological activity of anti-OX40 in combination with ipilimumab will be assessed by:

    • Determining immunologic changes in the tumor microenvironment by characterization of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), assessment of antigen-specific T cell responses and immunohistochemical (IHC) characterization of tumor and peri-tumoral tissue
    • Characterizing circulating T-cell subsets by flow cytometry
    • Assessing antigen specific immune responses by ELISA
    • Characterizing surface markers on lymphocytes and peripheral blood cells by flow cytometry
    • Measuring serum level of soluble factors (cytokine profiling)
    • mRNA/miRNA profiling to analyse gene transcription and/or miRNA expression

    Measured: Baseline, Day1, day 3, day 5 day8, day 15, day 22 day 43, day 64, day 85 & 113

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Anti-OX40 and Ipilimumab in people with Metastatic Melanoma, run by Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research.

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 9 inclusion and 14 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 combined 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.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Assess safety and tolerability according to the National Cancer Institute CTCAE v4.0 (Phase 1 and 2) (time frame: Up to 16 weeks). The study lists 2 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 1 Apr 2014.
