A Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of MK-8353 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors (MK-8353-001)

March 31, 2020 updated by: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of MK-8353 (Formerly SCH 900353) in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors (Protocol No. 001 (Formerly P06203))

This study of the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of MK-8353 (formerly SCH 900353) given as single agent oral therapy for participants with advanced solid tumors will be done into two parts. In Part 1a, there will be a dose escalation to find the preliminary maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and in Part 1b, dose confirmation to find out the recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD) that will be used in Part 2 of the study. In Part 2 of the study, participants with certain types of metastatic melanoma or metastatic colorectal cancer will be treated to see if MK-8353 is effective as single agent therapy.

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.

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

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
Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Time Frame: Cycles of 28 days, up to approximately 9 months treatment and a 30-day follow-up period for a total time of up to approximately 10 months
DLT was derived from the toxicities observed during the first cycle (28 days) for each dose level. DLT is defined as any hematologic or non-hematologic toxicity ≥Grade 3 as pre-specified per protocol, or drug-related toxicity, regardless of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade that causes >20% of the intended total number of doses in Cycle 1 to be missed.
Cycles of 28 days, up to approximately 9 months treatment and a 30-day follow-up period for a total time of up to approximately 10 months
Number of Participants With Overall Response Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, and every 8 weeks until disease progression or discontinuation from study up to approximately 10 months
Overall Response rate is defined as the number of participants who had a Complete Response (CR: Disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.
Baseline, and every 8 weeks until disease progression or discontinuation from study up to approximately 10 months
