Further study details as provided by Eisai Medical Research Inc.:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Determine the effect of E7080 on the objective tumor response rate according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). [ Time Frame: Months 2, 4, 6, 8 and every two months thereafter. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Adverse events, laboratory assessments, ECGs, progression-free survival, duration of response, time to response, PK profile. [ Time Frame: Months 2, 4, 6, 8 and every two months thereafter. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 100
Study Start Date: October 2008
Estimated Primary Completion Date: February 2011 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental Drug: E7080
E7080 given orally continuously at 10 mg, twice a day.

Detailed Description:

This will be an open-label study at approximately 40 study centers in the US, Europe and other countries. The study will consist of a screening period, 28-day treatment cycles, and a study termination/final visit and survival follow-up. Patients showing clinical benefit will continue to receive the study drug (extension phase) and will be followed up with the appropriate assessments.

Criteria

Inclusion criteria:

  1. Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of Medullary Thyroid Cancer (MTC) or Differentiated Thyroid Cancer (DTC).
  2. Measurable disease meeting the following criteria:

    -- Radiographically measurable disease defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in 1 dimension as at least 20 mm by conventional CT or MRI techniques or as at least 10 mm by spiral CT scan.

  3. Patients must show evidence of disease progression by RECIST using site assessment of CT/MRI scans within 6 months (+ 1 month to allow for variances in patients scanning intervals) prior to study entry.
  4. Patients with DTC must be 131-I refractory/resistant disease: never demonstrated 131-I uptake or progression despite 131-I uptake, or cumulative dose of 131-I of > 600 mCi (last dose given at least 6 months prior to study entry).
  5. Well controlled blood pressure prior to study entry.
  6. Signed informed consent.

Exclusion criteria:

  1. Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, thyroid lymphoma, mesenchymal tumors of the thyroid, metastases to the thyroid
  2. Brain or leptomeningeal metastases
  3. Significant cardiovascular impairment (history of congestive heart failure > New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II, unstable angina or myocardial infarction within 6 months of study start, or serious cardiac arrhythmia)
  4. Marked baseline prolongation of QT/QTc interval
  5. Proteinuria > 1+ or > 30 mg in dipstick testing
  6. Active hemoptysis (bright red blood of at least ½ teaspoon) in the 28 days prior to study entry
