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 to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenoid cystic carcinoma
  2. Recurrent/Metastatic disease documented as having shown progression on a scan (CT, MRI) compared to a previous scan taken at any time in the past. Progression must be documented according to RECIST criteria.
  3. Presence of at least one measurable target lesion for further evaluation according to RECIST criteria
  4. Disease that is not amenable to surgery, radiation or combined modality therapy with curative intent and was previously treated with chemotherapy
  5. 18 years or older
  6. Karnofsky score over 60
  7. Previous treatment with chemotherapy, targeted agents, loco-regional therapy (e.g. chemoembolization) are permitted providing that toxicity has resolved to < or = grade 1 at study entry and that last treatment was at least 4 weeks prior to baseline assessment.
  8. Adequate organ function
  9. A patient with the willingness to comply with the study protocol during the study period and capable of complying with it
  10. A patient who signed the informed consent prior to the participation of the study and who understands that he or she has a right to withdrawal from participation in the study at any time without any disadvantages.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. A patient with no measurable disease
  2. Prior chemotherapy, radiation therapy or surgery within 4 weeks prior to study entry except palliative radiotherapy to non-target lesions (within 2 weeks prior to study entry)
  3. A patient with previous active or passive immunotherapy
  4. A patient with intestinal obstruction or impending obstruction, recent active upper GI bleeding
  5. A pregnant or lactating patient
  6. A patient of childbearing potential without being tested for pregnancy at baseline or with being tested for positive. (A postmenopausal woman with the amenorrhea period of at least 12 months or longer is considered to have non-childbearing potential)
  7. A man or woman of childbearing potential who has no willingness to use a contraceptive measure during the study
  8. A patient with history of another malignant disease within past 5 years, except curatively treated basal cell carcinoma of skin and cervical carcinoma in situ.
  9. A patient with history of uncontrolled seizures, central nervous system disorder or psychiatric disorders that are considered clinically significant by the investigator that would prohibit the understanding of informed consent or that may be considered to interfere with the compliance of the administration of the study medications.
  10. A patient with clinically significant heart disease (e.g. congestive heart failure, symptomatic coronary artery diseases, cardiac arrhythmia, etc) or myocardial infarction within past 12 months.
  11. Ongoing cardiac arrhythmia of grade > or = 2, atrial fibrillation of any grade, or QTc interval > 450 msec for males or > 470 msec for female.
  12. A patient with interstitial pneumonia or diffuse symptomatic fibrosis of the lungs

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

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.
