A Dose-finding Study of Dalotuzumab in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors (MK-0646-002)

NCT ID: NCT00635778

Last Updated: 2018-10-09

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1
• Total Enrollment: 50 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2006-08-07
• Study Completion Date: 2008-11-05

Brief Summary

The study determined the recommended Phase 2 loading and maintenance doses and dose schedules for administering dalotuzumab using dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed during the entire treatment period (Up to 18 months). The primary hypothesis of the study was that administration of dalotuzumab as an every other week infusion in participants with relapsed or refractory locally advanced or metastatic cancers associated with a high frequency of insulin-like growth factor receptor type 1(IGF-1R) overexpression will be generally safe and well tolerated to permit further study and achieve a constant clearance and a minimum trough concentration of 3 µg/mL.

Detailed Description

The study consisted of 3 parts. In Part 1 the loading dose was escalated while the maintenance dose was kept constant. In Part 2 the loading dose was kept constant while the maintenance dose was escalated. In Part 3 the recommended phase 2 loading and maintenance doses and schedule were administered to an expanded cohort to explore safety and efficacy of dalotuzumab.
