Study of SBP-101 in Pancreatic Cancer

April 18, 2018 updated by: Panbela Therapeutics, Inc.

A Phase 1A/1B Study of SBP-101 in Previously Treated Subjects With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

This phase 1 first-in-human study evaluates safety and tolerability of SBP-101 in subjects with previously treated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and will identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). In addition, this study will also assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and preliminary efficacy of SBP-101.

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 first-in-human study of SBP-101 will be conducted in two phases: dose escalation and expansion. The dose escalation phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK profile of SBP-101 in subjects with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Up to 48 subjects may be enrolled in dose escalation. The expansion phase of the study will consist of 24 additional subjects who will receive the maximum tolerated dose of SBP-101 based on data from the dose escalation phase of the study.

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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All
