Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
- Conditions
- Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT00046917
- Lead Sponsor
- National Cancer Institute (NCI)
- Brief Summary
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining alvocidib, irinotecan hydrochloride, and cisplatin in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of flavopiridol (alvocidib), irinotecan (irinotecan hydrochloride), and cisplatin in patients with advanced solid tumors.
II. Determine the clinical pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients. III. Determine, preliminarily, the therapeutic activity of this regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients are stratified according to the number of prior treatment regimens (0 or 1 vs more than 1). Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes followed immediately by cisplatin IV over 30 minutes followed 7 hours later by alvocidib IV over 1-4.5 hours weekly for 2 weeks. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of cisplatin, alvocidib, and irinotecan hydrochloride until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of each is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Once the MTD is determined, 12 additional patients are treated at the recommended phase II dose.

Group Intervention Description Treatment (chemotherapy) irinotecan hydrochloride Patients are stratified according to the number of prior treatment regimens (0 or 1 vs more than 1). Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes followed immediately by cisplatin IV over 30 minutes followed 7 hours later by alvocidib IV over 1-4.5 hours weekly for 2 weeks. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment (chemotherapy) cisplatin Patients are stratified according to the number of prior treatment regimens (0 or 1 vs more than 1). Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes followed immediately by cisplatin IV over 30 minutes followed 7 hours later by alvocidib IV over 1-4.5 hours weekly for 2 weeks. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment (chemotherapy) alvocidib Patients are stratified according to the number of prior treatment regimens (0 or 1 vs more than 1). Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes followed immediately by cisplatin IV over 30 minutes followed 7 hours later by alvocidib IV over 1-4.5 hours weekly for 2 weeks. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method MTD alvocidib when administered in conjunction with irinotecan hydrochloride and cisplatin Course 1 Defined as the dose one level below the dose at which two or more of the patients in the initial cohort experience dose limiting toxicity (DLT) during the first treatment course. DLT is defined as the occurrence of Grade 4 hematologic toxicity, Grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic toxicity including diarrhea despite antidiarrheal prophylaxis, or any delay in treatment resulting in less than 2 treatments in 3 weeks.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Clinical pharmacokinetics of the regimen Week 1 of courses 1 and 2 Therapeutic activity of alvocidib in combination with irinotecan hydrochloride in patients with advanced solid tumors After 2 courses of treatment Evaluated using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST).
Safety and tolerability Weekly Evaluated using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Toxicity Criteria. Tabulated individually, and summarized by body system, according to dosage of study medication.
