Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Brief Summary

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with sorafenib and to see how well they work in treating patients with metastatic, recurrent, or unresectable melanoma. Sorafenib and temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with temosirolimus may kill more tumor cells.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose of temsirolimus when administered with sorafenib in patients with metastatic, recurrent, or unresectable melanoma.

II. To determine the safety and toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To Determine the population pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients.

II. To correlate tumor and blood biomarkers with clinical outcome in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, phase I, dose-escalation study followed by a phase II, open-label study (2005-0215).

Patients receive temsirolimus IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 and oral sorafenib once or twice daily on days 1-28. Treatment course repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3-6 months.

NameTimeMethod
Objective response rate (complete response and partial response) CCI-779 in combination with BAY43-9006 (Phase II)Up to 5 years
Maximum tolerated dose of CCI-779 in combination with BAY43-9006 (Phase I) determined by DLT assessed by NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 (Phase I)28 days
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression-free survivalThe duration of time from start of treatment to date of first evidence of progression or the date of last follow-up for patients who do not progress, assessed up to 5 years

Kaplan-Meier life table methods and Cox proportional hazards regression modeling will be utilized to analyze progression-free survival and overall survival.
