Study of Oral Ridaforolimus (AP23573, MK-8669) to Treat Patients With Refractory or Advanced Malignancies (MK-8669-016 AM4)(COMPLETED)

Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Phase I/IIa, Sequential Cohort, Dose Escalation Trial to Determine the Safety, Tolerability and Maximum Tolerated Dose of AP23573 When Administered Orally in Patients With Refractory or Advanced Malignancies

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this current phase I trial is to study the safety and tolerability of an orally administered dosage form of ridaforolimus. This will be accomplished by an ascending dose study of several dosage regimens in patients with advanced malignancies.

Clinical Trial Description

The advent of oral anticancer therapy has created a means to reduce dependency on a system for treating cancer that relies on hospital-based services to administer treatment. While known disadvantages of oral therapies such as potential variable absorption, unpredictable bioavailability and sometimes poor patient compliance pose challenges, the use of orally administered compounds permits investigation of alternative or varied dose regimens, which may ultimately enhance overall patient care.

Ridaforolimus is currently being studied in phase 1 and phase II clinical trials in patients with advanced cancers. Thus far, these trials have demonstrated that ridaforolimus has a favorable safety profile and possesses anticancer activity when administered as a 30-minute intravenous (IV) infusion daily x 5 every-two-weeks or on a weekly schedule. The primary objective of this current phase I trial is to study the safety and tolerability of an orally administered dosage form of ridaforolimus. This will be accomplished by an ascending dose study of several dosage regimens in patients with advanced malignancies. ;
