ABI-007 in Treating Patients With Chemotherapy-Naïve Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
Sponsors and Collaborators: Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00077246
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ABI-007, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of ABI-007 and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.


Condition Intervention Phase
Lung Cancer
Drug: paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation
Phase I
Phase II

MedlinePlus related topics: Cancer Lung Cancer
Drug Information available for: Paclitaxel

Official Title: An Open-Label, Phase I/II Trial Of ABI-007 (A CREMOPHOR® El-Free, Protein Stabilized, Nanoparticle Paclitaxel) Administered Weekly In Chemotherapy Naive Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of ABI-007 [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Objective target lesion response (complete or partial) as measured by RECIST criteria [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events and serious adverse events [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

  • Incidence of dose modifications, dose interruptions, and/or premature discontinuation of study treatment [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Percentage of patients with stable disease for ≥ 16 weeks [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Percentage of patients with complete or partial target response (total response) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of paclitaxel (albumin-stabilized Nanoparticle formulation) (ABI-007) in patients with chemotherapy-naïve stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
  • Determine the antitumor activity of this drug in these patients.
  • Determine the safety and tolerability of this drug in these patients.

Secondary

  • Determine the time to disease progression in patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine duration of response in patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine survival of patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, dose-escalation study.

  • Phase I: Patients receive paclitaxel (albumin-stabilized Nanoparticle formulation) (ABI-007) IV on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of ABI-007 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

  • Phase II: Patients receive ABI-007 as above at the MTD (determined in phase I). Patients are followed monthly for 6 months and then every 3 months for 1.5 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 64 patients will be accrued for this study.
