Oraxol: This phase I trial is comparing oral versus intravenous (IV) chemotherapy in patients for whom IV chemotherapy (paclitaxel 80mg/m2) has been recommended by their oncologistA Randomized Crossover Study to Determine the Bioequivalence of Three Consecutive Daily Doses of Oraxol in Cancer Patients Treated With Intravenous Paclitaxel

Clinical summary

Summary

This is a randomised, multicenter, open-label, 2-stage study. Both stages of the study have two treatment periods and a crossover design. The primary objective of the study is to compare the bioequivalence (BE) based on the AUC0-inf of orally administered paclitaxel (Oraxol) at the estimated clinical dose to that of IV paclitaxel.

Conditions

This trial is treating patients with those for which treatment with IV chemotherapy (paclitaxel 80mg/m2) has been recommended by an oncologist.

A Randomized Crossover Study to Determine the Bioequivalence of Three Consecutive Daily Doses of Oraxol in Cancer Patients Treated With Intravenous Paclitaxel

Eligibility

Inclusion

Eligible participants are cancer patients for whom treatment with IV paclitaxel at 80 mg/m2 has been recommended by their oncologist, either as monotherapy or in combination with other agents. They must have adequate hematologic status and liver and renal function at Screening/Baseline; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1; and life expectancy of at least 3 months.
They must be willing to fast for 8 hours before and 4 hours after Oraxol administration; willing to abstain from alcohol consumption for 3 days before the first dose of study drug through the completion of protocol-specified PK sampling in Treatment Period 2; willing to refrain from caffeine consumption for 12 hours before each treatment period through the completion of protocol-specified PK sampling for that dose. Women must be postmenopausal (>12 months without menses) or surgically sterile (ie, by hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy) or, if sexually active, must be using effective contraception (ie, oral contraceptives, intrauterine device, double barrier method of condom and spermicide) and agree to continue use of contraception for the duration of their participation in the study. Women of childbearing potential must agree to use contraception for 30 days after their last dose of study drug. Sexually active male participants must use a barrier method of contraception during the study and agree to continue the use of male contraception for at least 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

Exclusion

 

Study participants must not be currently taking a prohibited concomitant medication; have unresolved toxicity from prior chemotherapy; have received investigational agents within 14 days or 5 half-lives prior to the first study dosing day, whichever is longer. Other exclusions are women of childbearing potential who are pregnant or breast feeding; uncontrolled intercurrent illness; major surgery to the upper gastrointestinal tract, or have a history of GI disease or other medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator may interfere with oral drug absorption; known history of allergy to paclitaxel; any other condition which the investigator believes would make a subject’s participation in the study not acceptable

Exclusion

  • You have certain types of non-cancer medical conditions.
  • You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.
  • You have previously been treated (or are currently being treated) on a clinical trial.
