Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patient at least 18 years old and has definitive histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic solid tumor.
  • Patient has one or more metastatic tumors measurable by CT scan (or PET/CT, if patient is allergic to CT contrast media). Tumor sites that are considered measureable must not have received prior radiation therapy. For metastatic tumors not measurable by CT and/or PET/CT, there needs to be tumor measuring at least 1cm in one dimension by digital calipers on physical exam.
  • Patients can be enrolled only on one of the treatment arms on this trial.
  • The investigator will select the appropriate treatment arm for the patient with the following requirements: (a) Patients cannot have had prior progression or intolerance on the single agent chemotherapy and then enrolled on an arm with that same single agent chemotherapy plus nivolumab (b) The chemotherapy on the arm selected must be considered standard of care or its components listed in the NCCN guidelines (www.nccn.org) for that cancer type.
  • Have recovered from acute toxicities of prior treatment:
  • > 3 weeks must have elapsed since receiving any investigational agent.
Show all 15Show fewer
  • > 2 weeks must have elapsed since receiving any radiotherapy, or ≥ 3 weeks or 5 half-lives whichever is shorter for treatment with cytotoxic or biologic agents ( ≥ 6 weeks for mitomycin or nitrosoureas). Chronic treatment with non-investigational gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs or other hormonal or supportive care is permitted.
  • Patient has adequate biological parameters as demonstrated by the following blood counts at time of screening:
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1500 mm3, platelet count ≥ 100×109 L, hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL. Subject can be given packed red blood cell transfusion
  • Calculated creatinine clearance > 40 ml/min by Cockroft-Gault equation:
  • [CreatClear = Sex ((140 - Age) / (SerumCreat)) (Weight / 72); where Sex = 1 for men and 0.85 for women], total bilirubin 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) range, AST/ALT ≤ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) range.
  • Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) within institutional normal limits. If TSH is above the upper limit of normal range, then a free T4 within institutional normal limits is acceptable. If thyroid replacement therapy is initiated then patient may be screened and enrolled once the above criterion is met.
  • Persistent prior systemic therapy non-hematologic AE grade ≤ 2 (except alopecia or correctable electrolyte abnormality with supplementation)
  • Patient has a Karnofsky performance status (KPS) ≥ 70.
  • Women of child-bearing potential (i.e., women who are pre-menopausal or not surgically sterile) must be willing to use an acceptable contraceptive method (abstinence, oral contraceptive or double barrier method) for the duration of the study and for 5 months following the last dose of nivolumab and 30 days following the last dose of chemotherapy on this trial on this trial, and must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to beginning treatment on this trial. If a female subject or female partner of a male subject becomes pregnant during this period then patient will be recommended to seek appropriate obstetric care. The study will not be monitoring subjects or female partners of subjects for pregnancy after the last dose of study drug or chemotherapy.

Who cannot join

  • Active clinically serious infection > CTCAE (version 4.03) Grade 2.
  • Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
  • Patient has known brain metastases. Baseline imaging of the brain is required within 28 days prior to randomization.
  • Prior therapy with a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor for the RCC subjects, prior therapy with irinotecan or topotecan for NSCLC subjects, and prior therapy with irinotecan for CRC patients.
  • Inability to complete informed consent process and adhere to the protocol treatment plan and follow-up requirements.
  • Patient has known active infection with HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C (patients are NOT required to be tested for the presence of such viruses prior to therapy on this protocol).
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Requiring daily corticosteroid dose ≥ 10 mg prednisone or equivalent per day.
  • Patient has undergone major surgery, other than diagnostic surgery (e.g., surgery done to obtain a biopsy for diagnosis without removal of an organ), within 4 weeks prior to Day 1 of treatment in this study.
  • Patient has serious medical risk factors involving any of the major organ systems, or serious psychiatric disorders, which could compromise the patient's safety or the study data integrity.
  • Patient will be receiving any other anti-cancer therapy during participation in this trial.
  • Prior treatment with nivolumab is not allowed. Prior receipt of other PD-1 inhibitors or PD-L1 inhibitors is allowed.
  • Active or prior documented autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within the past 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Temsirolimus, Irinotecan and Irinotecan + capecitabine in people with Advanced Cancer and Pancreatic Cancer, run by Western Regional Medical 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 15 inclusion and 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jul 2018. 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 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 stopped early (reason given: Investigator no longer at site to enroll patients or write up data). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of chemotherapy in combination with nivolumab in subjects with advanced cancer. (time frame: up to 4 weeks). 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 2 Jul 2018.
