Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Solid Tumor
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01170897
Lead Sponsor
Halozyme Therapeutics
Brief Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Detailed Description

A study of PEGylated recombinant human hyaluronidase (PEGPH20) administered on a twice weekly schedule for 28 days followed by a weekly dosing schedule in patients with advanced solid tumors who have either failed to respond to standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy exists.

Maximally Tolerated DosePEGPH20To identify the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) of PEGPH20.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety endpoints including assessment of both serious and non-serious AEsFrom Day 1 of Treatment Cycle 1, thru to Follow-up (within 28 days after last dose of PEGPH20)

All safety data will be evaluated using the NCI CTCAE scoring system (version 4.0)

Maximally Tolerated Dose (MTD) of PEGPH20 when given to patients with cancerTo be evaluable for MTD determination, a patient must have completed the Cycle 1 study drug doses and the associated assessments for safety and toxicity evaluation

The PEGPH20 monotherapy MTD is the highest dose at which no more than one of six evaluable patients experience Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)
