Escalating Doses of PM01183 in Combination With Gemcitabine in Patients With Specific Unresectable Solid Tumors

March 31, 2015 updated by: PharmaMar

Phase I Multicenter, Open-label, Clinical and Pharmacokinetic Study of PM01183 in Combination With Gemcitabine in Non-heavily Pretreated Patients With Selected Advanced Solid Tumors

Phase I multicenter, open-label, clinical and pharmacokinetic study of PM01183 in combination with gemcitabine in non-heavily pretreated patients with selected advanced solid tumors to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended dose (RD) of PM01183 in combination with gemcitabine, to characterize the safety profile and feasibility of this combination in patients with selected advanced solid tumors, to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK), to obtain preliminary information on the clinical antitumor activity in non-heavily pretreated selected solid tumor patients and to evaluate the pharmacogenomics (PGx) in tumor samples of patients exposed, in order to assess potential markers of response and/or resistance.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: lurbinectedin (PM01183) / gemcitabine

Patients will consecutively receive the following on Days 1 and 8 q3wk (three weeks = one treatment cycle):

- Gemcitabine: intravenous infusion of 800 mg/m2/day over 30 minutes,

immediately followed by:

- PM01183: intravenous infusion over one hour at a starting dose of 2.5 mg/day, flat dose (FD), both on Days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks

lurbinectedin (PM01183) is presented as powder for concentrate for solution for infusion with two strengths, 1-mg and 4-mg vials
1000 mg vial, powder for injectable solution

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Recommended Dose (RD)
Time Frame: 19 months
The RD will be the highest dose level explored at which less than one third of evaluable patients experience a DLT during Cycle 1.
19 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pharmacokinetics (PK) characterisation
Time Frame: 19 months
The dose-exposure relationships for maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC) will be evaluated.
19 months
Preliminary antitumor efficacy
Time Frame: 29 months
To obtain preliminary information on the clinical antitumor activity of this combination in non-heavily pretreated selected solid tumor patients
29 months
Pharmacogenomics (PGx)
Time Frame: 29 months
to identify molecular markers whose expression may be associated with the clinical outcome of patients. These molecular markers might allow the identification of those patients who will benefit from PM01183 and gemcitabine treatment, thus improving the health care by an individualized medicine.
