A Phase 1 Study in Participants With Advanced Cancer

May 9, 2016 updated by: Eli Lilly and Company

A Phase 1 Study of LY2606368 in Patients With Advanced Cancer

The primary purpose of Parts A and B of this study is to evaluate the safety and toxicity of prexasertib (an inhibitor of checkpoint kinase 1[chk 1]) in participants with advanced or metastatic cancer (Part A), or squamous cell cancer of the head and neck or squamous cell cancer of any tumor type (Part B). Part C of the study will evaluate prexasertib in three different groups of participants; those with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck that has recurred or spread to other parts of the body, those with squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has recurred or spread, and those with squamous cell cancer of the anus that is not curable by existing therapy.

Participants must have discontinued mitomycin-C or nitrosourea therapy at least 42 days and have discontinued any cytotoxic therapies at least 28 days prior to study enrollment. Radiation therapy and surgery: must be completed at least 4 weeks before study enrollment
  • Part A: Must have diagnosis of cancer that is advanced or metastatic
  • Part B: Must have histologically confirmed squamous cell cancer of the head and neck or must have squamous cell cancer of any tumor type
  • Part C: Must have histological diagnosis of squamous cell cancer of the head and neck, histological or cytological diagnosis of squamous non-small-cell lung cancer, or histological diagnosis of Stage IIIB (N2 or N3) or Stage IV squamous cell cancer of the anus that is not curable by local therapy
  • Must be available during the duration of the study and willing to follow the study procedures
  • If participant is of reproductive potential, must agree to use medically approved contraceptive precautions during the study and for three months following the last dose of study drug
  • If the participant is a female of childbearing potential, must have had a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days of the first dose of study drug and must not be breast feeding

Exclusion Criteria:
