Trial Outcomes & Findings for Temsirolimus/AZD 6244 for Treatment-naive With BRAF Mutant Unresectable Stage IV (NCT NCT01166126)

NCT ID: NCT01166126

Last Updated: 2014-05-15

Results Overview

Anti-tumor response (CR+PR) was defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

Participant Flow

Up to 35 subjects with a histologic diagnosis of unresectable Stage IV melanoma were to be enrolled into this study over 24 months.

11 of 15 patients consented were not eligible to receive the study drug after screening.

Measure
Treatment (Temsirolimus and Selumetinib)
Treatment Phase: This period begins with the first intravenous (through the vein) infusion of TEMSIROLIMUS and the first AZD6244 administration by mouth (visit 2, Week 1) and will continue until Week 8 (Visit 4). Investigators planned for as many as 38 patients to receive the same dosage of TEMSIROLIMUS injected in the veins once a week for 8 weeks, and the AZD6244 would be given as capsules by mouth twice a day for 8 weeks. That is one cycle. The TEMSIROLIMUS and AZD6244 would be given to participants as an outpatient, unless admission to the hospital was needed for treatment of related side effects or underlying disease. The subsequent cycles of TEMSIROLIMUS and AZD6244 would be given every 8 weeks. The TEMSIROLIMUS would be injected in a vein over 30 minutes. The continuation phase would begin with visits at weeks 12 in patients who received at least two cycles of treatments.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months from day 1 of treatment

Patients will be evaluated by physical examination and imaging assessments (brain MRI and CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis). Disease progression will be defined by RECIST criteria on physical exam or diagnostic imaging assessments that are attributed to metastatic melanoma. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression).
