About this study

Official title: A Phase II Clinical Study on Efficacy of Palbociclib in Advanced Acral Melanoma With Cell Cycle Gene Aberrations

It is a prospective, phase II, open-labeled, clinical trial aimed to determine the efficacy of palbociclib in advanced melanoma patients who bear gene aberrations in cell cycle pathways [including CDK4 amplification and/or CCND1 amplification and/or P16 (CDKN2A) loss]. Fifteen patients, if there is a response then further 45 patients will be enrolled. Totally 60 subjects with known above-mentioned gene aberrations who comply with the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled, their serum samples (at the time of the first administration of palbociclib and every 4 weeks afterwards) will be collected. Palbociclib will be given in the dose of 125 mg orally qd d1-21 every 28 days, unless disease progression or intolerance. All patients will be evaluated for the response to palbociclib by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) at baseline. The standard radiographic imaging (CT scans) will be performed every 4 weeks until the end of treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Palbociclib in people with Melanoma, run by Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute.

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 21 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Mar 2018. 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 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?

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?

Overall response rate (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months). 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 NCT03454919, 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 6 Mar 2018.
