A Single-Arm Study Evaluating Carboplatin/Gemcitabine in Combination With BSI-201 in Patients With Platinum-Sensitive Recurrent Ovarian Cancer

February 17, 2016 updated by: Sanofi

A Phase 2, Multi-Center, Single-Arm Study Evaluating Carboplatin/Gemcitabine in Combination With BSI-201 in Patients With Platinum-Sensitive Recurrent Ovarian Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of BSI-201 on the objective response rate in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients receiving gemcitabine and carboplatin.

Based on data generated by BiPar/Sanofi, it is concluded that iniparib does not possess characteristics typical of the PARP inhibitor class. The exact mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated, however based on experiments on tumor cells performed in the laboratory, iniparib is a novel investigational anti-cancer agent that induces gamma-H2AX (a marker of DNA damage) in tumor cell lines, induces cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase in tumor cell lines, and potentiates the cell cycle effects of DNA damaging modalities in tumor cell lines. Investigations into potential targets of iniparib and its metabolites are ongoing.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.
  • Phase 2

Expanded Access

Expanded Access

A way for patients with serious diseases or conditions who cannot participate in a clinical trial to gain access to a medical product that has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Also called compassionate use. There are different expanded access types.
No longer available

No longer available

  • Available: Expanded access is currently available for this investigational treatment, and patients who are not participants in the clinical study may be able to gain access to the drug, biologic, or medical device being studied.
  • No longer available: Expanded access was available for this intervention previously but is not currently available and will not be available in the future.
  • Temporarily not available: Expanded access is not currently available for this intervention but is expected to be available in the future.
  • Approved for marketing: The intervention has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use by the public.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • At least 18 years of age
  • Histological diagnosis of epithelial ovarian carcinoma, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal carcinoma
  • Completion of only one previous course of chemotherapy which contained a platinum therapy, with sensitivity to that regimen. "Platinum-sensitivity" is defined by a relapse greater than 6 months after termination of platinum-based chemotherapy
  • Measurable disease, defined by at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest dimension to be recorded), and is ≥ 20 mm when measured by conventional techniques (palpation, plain x-ray, computed tomography [CT], or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) or ≥ 10 mm when measured by spiral CT
  • Adequate organ function defined as: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3, platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3, creatinine clearance > 50mL/min, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN; or < 5 x ULN in case of liver metastases); total bilirubin < 1.5 mg/dL
  • For women of child bearing potential, documented negative pregnancy test within two weeks of study entry and agreement to acceptable birth control during the duration of the study therapy
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, 1 or 2
  • Signed, institutional review board (IRB) approved written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Concurrent invasive malignancy, not including:

    1. Non-melanomatous skin cancer
    2. In situ malignancies
    3. Concurrent superficial endometrial carcinoma, if their endometrial carcinoma is superficial or invades less than 50% the thickness of the myometrium)
    4. Low risk breast cancer (localized, non-inflammatory) treated with curative intent
  • Lesions identifiable only by positron emission tomography (PET)
  • Prior treatment with poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, including BSI-201
  • Major medical conditions that might affect study participation (i.e., uncontrolled pulmonary, renal, or hepatic dysfunction, uncontrolled infection)
  • Other significant co-morbid condition which the investigator feels might compromise effective and safe participation in the study, including a history of congestive cardiac failure or an electrocardiogram (ECG) suggesting significant conduction defect or myocardial ischemia
  • Enrollment in another investigational device or drug study, or current treatment with other investigational agents
  • Concurrent radiation therapy to treat primary disease throughout the course of the study
  • Inability to comply with the requirements of the study
