Bortezomib & Gemcitabine in Treating Older Patients With Advanced Solid

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of solid tumors by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bortezomib together with gemcitabine may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib and gemcitabine in treating older patients with advanced solid tumors.

Clinical Trial Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- To determine the maximum tolerated dose of weekly bortezomib and gemcitabine in treating elderly patients with advanced solid tumors.

Secondary

- To characterize the quantitative and qualitative toxicities of bortezomib and gemcitabine in these patients.

- To obtain preliminary information about the anti-tumor activity of bortezomib and gemcitabine.

- To characterize gemcitabine and metabolite pharmacokinetics in patients receiving concurrent bortezomib therapy.

OUTLINE: This is a phase I dose escalation study of bortezomib and gemcitabine.

Patients receive gemcitabine intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes followed 1 hour later by bortezomib IV over 3-5 seconds on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of gemcitabine and bortezomib until the maximum tolerated dose of the combination is determined.

Blood is collected periodically for pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic studies.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for up to 1 year. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
