Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open label single arm study. Patients meeting all inclusion and exclusion criteria will receive up to 6 cycles of combination therapy of belinostat plus carboplatin (AUC 6) and paclitaxel 200 mg/m2.

During phase I the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of belinostat in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel will be determined in patients with Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer who have received no prior systemic chemotherapy. The dose escalation study will be conducted using traditional escalation rule of 3+3 design, during the first cycle of therapy. Belinostat will be assessed at a starting dose level of 1000 mg/m2 and multiple dose levels may be evaluated. Doses of belinostat, carboplatin and paclitaxel will remain constant throughout the study, unless dose modification is required by toxicity. Treatment is given on days 1-5 of every 21-day cycle. Routine safety evaluations will be conducted on days, 1, 8, and 15 of every cycle. Tumor measurement will be done after every 2 cycles of the treatment.

Additional 20 patients will be treated at the MTD defined dose during phase II expansion portion of the study.

All patients will receive up to 6 cycles of combination therapy and be followed until occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, withdrawal of consent or death.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Single arm, open label

At the study entry each patient will receive a dose level assignment which will include a specific dose level and the dose of IV belinostat in mg/m2 to be administered during the study treatment.

Belinostat will be infused over 30 minutes once daily on Days 1-5 of each 21-day cycle. On Day 3, the infusion of belinostat must be completed at least 1 hour prior to the start of the paclitaxel infusion. Dose of belinostat will be assigned at study entry. The same dose and level will remain throughout the entire study for each patient and no dose adjustment will be allowed, except due to toxicity.
Drug: Belinostat, Carboplatin, Paclitaxel
Up to 6 cycles of combination therapy of belinostat plus carboplatin (AUC 6) and paclitaxel 200 mg/m2. Initial dose of belinostat will be 1000mg/m2 for MTD dose escalation evaluation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose ( MTD) of belinostat in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patient with Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer who has received no prior systemic chemotherapy.
Time Frame: 24 Months
At study entry each eligible patient will be assigned a specific dose level and dose of IV belinostat in mg/m2, to be administered daily on Days 1 to 5 each 21 day cycle, for up to 6 cycles. Dose escalation within each patient is not allowed during this study. At each dose level cohort of up to 6 patients may be evaluated during Cycle 1 of therapy. Multiple dose levels may be evaluated to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of IV belinostat, in combination with 6 cycles of IV carboplatin and paclitaxel, for chemo-naïve patients with Stage IV NSCLC.
24 Months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety and Tolerability when IV belinostat is administered in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with chemotherapy naïve Stage IV M1a or M1b NSCLC.
Time Frame: 24 Months
Safety will be based on treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including DLTs will be graded by CTCAE version 4.02, and grouped by the MedDRA preferred term, and summarized by worst grade severity per patient. TEAEs are those adverse events that occur or worsen on or after first study treatment up through 30 days post last study treatment, and/or any treatment-related. Tolerability will be mainly characterized by the number and severity of treatment emergent adverse events, and treatment related AEs that occur or worsen after the first dose of study treatment. Deaths, non-fatal serious adverse events (SAEs), and other AEs leading to discontinuation of study treatment will be summarized.
24 Months
Efficacy when IV belinostat is administered in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with chemotherapy naïve Stage IV M1a or M1b NSCLC
Time Frame: 24 Months
Efficacy variable of this study is best overall response, using RECIST criteria - complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD), and not evaluable (NE) - as determined by the investigator.The efficacy endpoint is objective response rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of patients with target lesions who achieve either a CR or a PR.
24 Months
Progression-free survival (PFS) when IV belinostat is administered in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with chemotherapy naïve Stage IV M1a or M1b NSCLC
Time Frame: 24 Months
progression-free survival (PFS) will be analyzed, defined as the duration of time from date of first study treatment to date of first documented progression or death from any cause. All treated patients will be included in the analysis of PFS. Patients without a documented progression or death will be censored at the last disease assessment.
24 Months
Objective response rate (ORR) when IV belinostat is administered in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with chemotherapy naïve Stage IV M1a or M1b NSCLC.
Time Frame: 24 Months

The efficacy endpoint is objective response rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of patients with target lesions who achieve either a CR or a PR. A two-sided exact 95% confidence.

interval (CI) will be calculated for ORR. For example, if 24 patients are to be treated, including 20 patients with target lesions at baseline, and 8 patient achieve a CR or a PR, then the response rate will be 40% with a 95% CI of [19%, 64%].
