Study groups in NCT02228525
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
selinexor (KPT-330)ExperimentalPatients with myelodysplastic syndromes who are refractory to hypomethylating agents (decitabine or 5-azacytidine) will receive oral selinexor at a starting dose of 60 mg twice weekly for 2 weeks, followed by 1 week of no therapy. Dose reductions are permitted for patients who are benefiting from selinexor but have poor tolerance. After discontinuation from treatment, patients will be followed by the study staff for survival status approximately every three months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Best Overall Response Rate

    Using a Simon's two-stage minimax design, this trial will accrue a maximum of 20 patients. Early termination may occur if no responses are observed in the first 13 patients. If at least one response is observed, the trial will continue to the maximum sample size. At the end of the trial, the treatment strategy will be considered promising in this patient population if at least 3 patients achieve a response. The type I and type II errors are set at 0.10.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Response Duration

    Response duration will be calculated among patients who achieve a response of HI, mCR, PR or CR using Kaplan-Meier methodology. Median duration of response and the corresponding 95% confidence interval will be estimated.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Overall Survival

    Overall survival from the time of study enrollment will be calculated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. Overall survival curves will be displayed for the study population along with selected quantiles and corresponding 95% confidence intervals of survival.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Participants Evaluated for Adverse Events

    The safety and tolerability of Selinexor and ST will be evaluated by means of drug related AE reports, physical examinations, and laboratory safety evaluations. Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) V4.03 will be used for grading of AEs.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing selinexor (KPT-330) in people with Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site 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 12 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 9 Mar 2022). 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?

Best Overall Response Rate (time frame: 2 years). 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 NCT02228525, 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 9 Mar 2022.
