Crizotinib and Ganetespib (STA-9090) in ALK Positive Lung Cancers

December 28, 2020 updated by: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

A Phase I Study of Crizotinib and Ganetespib (STA-9090) in ALK Positive Lung Cancers

About 18 patients will take part in the phase 1 portion of the trial. In the beginning of the study, 3 patients will be treated with a low dose of ganetespib (STA-9090) and the standard dose of crizotinib. If this dose does not cause significant side effects, it will be increased as new patients take part in the study. The study will only be open at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

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.

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

All

Drug: Ganetespib (STA-9090) and crizotinib
Ganetespib (STA-9090) is given intravenously (days 1 and 8 of a 21 day cycle). Crizotinib will be given at the FDA approved dose of 250mg orally twice daily in a continuous fashion.

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
maximum tolerated dose
Time Frame: 1 year
A standard 3+3 design will be used to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Patients who withdraw before completing a full cycle will be replaced. There will be three set dose levels, using the approved dose of crizotinib, with 50%, 75% and 100% of the ganetespib (STA-9090) maximum tolerated dose of 200 mg/m2.
1 year
efficacy
Time Frame: 1 year
patients with ALK rearranged NSCLC at delaying acquired resistance to crizotinib by measuring progression free survival
1 year

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
overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: 1 year
as defined by time from study entry to death due to any cause and overall response rate (RR), as defined by the combination of complete responses and partial responses according to RECIST 1.1
1 year
safety profile
Time Frame: 2 years
Toxicity will be graded according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), version 4.0.
