About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of XL184 (Cabozantinib) in Children and Adolescents With Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors, Including CNS Tumors

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of cabozantinib S-malate in treating younger patients with solid tumors that have come back or no longer respond to treatment. Cabozantinib S-malate 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 estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose of XL184 (cabozantinib) (cabozantinib S-malate) administered orally to children with refractory solid tumors including central nervous system (CNS) tumors.

II. To define and describe the toxicities of XL184 (cabozantinib) administered on this schedule.

III. To characterize the pharmacokinetics of XL184 (cabozantinib) in children with refractory solid tumors.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To preliminarily define the antitumor activity of XL184 (cabozantinib) within the confines of a phase 1 study.

II. To assess the biologic activity of XL184 (cabozantinib). III. To assess the biomarker response (carcinoembryonic antigen [CEA] and calcitonin) in patients with medullary thyroid cancer treated with XL184.

IV. To evaluate overall survival from study entry through a five-year follow-up period.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. (Complete as of 4/16/2014)

Patients receive cabozantinib S-malate orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, 6 months, and then annually for up to 60 months.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  2. Overall Survival (OS) of Cabozantinib S-malate

    Median (95% CI) time to death stratified by dose level and study part.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  3. Change From Baseline in VEGF-R2 Concentration

    Median (Min, Max) of change for VEGF-R2 sample from baseline to the day 21 or 28 stratified by dose level and study part.

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  4. Biomarker Response (CEA and Calcitonin) in Patients With Medullary Thyroid Cancer Treated With XL184

    Number of patients with tumor markers CEA and/or calcitonin 2x ULN at baseline defined as CR (normalization of CEA or calcitonin) or PR (at least 50% decrease in CEA or CTN) at least 4 weeks apart.

    Measured: Up to 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cabozantinib S-malate, Laboratory Biomarker Analysis and Pharmacological Study in people with Recurrent Malignant Solid Neoplasm and Recurrent Melanoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 23 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 39 inclusion and 23 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 22 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 sites in United States, Canada. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Dec 2023). 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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or Recommended Phase 2 Dose of Cabozantinib S-malate (time frame: Up to 28 days). The study lists 3 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 22 Dec 2023.
