- Conditions
- Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT02033148
- Lead Sponsor
- Roswell Park Cancer Institute
- Brief Summary
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of icotinib hydrochloride in treating patients with advanced cancers. Icotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
- Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of icotinib (icotinib hydrochloride) in patients with advanced cancers.
II. To determine the safety, tolerability and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of icotinib in patients with advanced cancers.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To preliminarily assess the anti-tumor activity of icotinib in patients with advanced cancers.
II. To characterize the effect, if any, of icotinib on corrected QT interval using Bazett's formula (QTcB).
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes encoding for icotinib's target (epidermal growth factor receptor \[EGFR\]), putative transport protein (ATP-binding cassette, sub-family G \[WHITE\], member 1 \[ABCG1\]) and major metabolizing enzyme (cytochrome P450 3A4 \[CYP3A4\]) as well as other genes that may be found to be important in icotinib activity, and correlate these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with clinical activity and toxicity.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients receive icotinib hydrochloride orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method MTD of icotinib hydrochloride, defined as the highest dose level at which =< 1 of 6 evaluable patients experiences a dose-limiting toxicity, as graded using NCI CTCAE version 4.0 28 days Overall toxicity incidence as well as toxicity profiles by dose level, subject and tumor site will be explored and summarized. Frequency distributions, graphical techniques and other descriptive measures will form the basis of these analyses.
PK parameters of icotinib hydrochloride Cycle 1 only: Day -9 or Day -8: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 24, and 48 hours; Day 8: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 (Day 9 pre-dose) hours; Day 15: pre-dose trough Parameters include time to maximum concentration (Tmax), maximum concentration (Cmax), drug clearance (CL), half life (T 1/2), area under curve (AUC)0-infinity (inf), and AUC0-last measurable concentration (t) for the dosing interval following single and multiple dose administration.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Objective tumor response, assessed using RECIST 1.1 Up to 30 days after last dose of study drug Objective tumor response will be tabulated overall (and by dose level if appropriate). Responses will be summarized by simple descriptive summary statistics delineating complete and partial responses as well as stable and progressive disease in the cohorts (overall and by tumor group).
Best response, defined to be the best objective status recorded from the start of the treatment until disease progression/recurrence (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started) Up to 30 days after last dose of study drug Responses will be summarized by simple descriptive summary statistics delineating complete and partial responses as well as stable and progressive disease in the cohorts (overall and by tumor group).
Frequency of toxicities, graded according to NCI CTCAE version 4.0 Up to 30 days after last dose of study drug The frequency of toxicities will be tabulated by grade across all dose levels and cycles. The frequency of toxicities will also be tabulated for the dose estimated to be the MTD.
