Neoplasms
Eligibility:
All Genders
18-110 years
Phase:
PHASE1
Brief Summary
Background: \- Paclitaxel and carboplatin are two standard drugs that stop cancer cells from reproducing. ABT-888 is an experimental cancer drug that may prevent cancer cells from "fixing" the damage...
Detailed Description
Background: The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family of enzymes is critical for maintaining genomic stability by regulating a variety of DNA repair mechanisms. The carboplatin/paclitaxel combin...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- INCLUSION CRITERIA:
- Patients must have histologically confirmed malignancy that is metastatic or unresectable, for which standard curative or palliative measures do not exist or are no longer effective, and for which there is expectation of response to the combination of carboplatin/paclitaxel (e.g., lung, ovarian, breast, melanoma).
- Age greater than or equal to 18 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of ABT-888 in patients \< 18 years of age, children are excluded from this study, but may be eligible for future pediatric phase 1 combination trials.
- ECOG performance status less than or equal to 2.
- Life expectancy of greater than 12 weeks.
- Patients must have marrow function as defined below:
- absolute neutrophil count greater than or equal to 1,500/mcL
- platelets greater than or eqaul to 100,000/mcL
- hemoglobin greater than or eqaul to 8.0 g/dL
- Patients with all degrees of renal dysfunction are allowed including patients on hemodialysis. Patients with mild to severe hepatic dysfunction are allowed as defined below:
- total bilirubin less than or eqaul to 5 times ULN AND AST and ALT less than or eqaul to10 times ULN
- For patients with a recently placed biliary stent, patients should have consistent results within a hepatic group from two laboratory readings within 3 days apart, taken at least 10 days following biliary stent placement. For patients with a biliary stent placed over 2 months ago, no obstruction or blockage can have occurred within the last 2 months.
- The effects of ABT-888 on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because other therapeutic agents or modalities used in this trial are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study
- participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
- EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those whose adverse event due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier have not resolved or stabilized. Patients who have been administered ABT-888 as part of a single or combination, Phase 0 or I study, should not necessarily be excluded from participating in this study solely because of receiving prior ABT-888.
- Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to ABT-888 or other agents used in study.
- Peripheral neuropathy of severity greater than grade 1.
- Inability to take oral medications on a continuous basis.
- Evidence of bleeding diathesis.
- Patients with brain metastasis should have stable disease for at least 4 weeks following therapy for brain metastasis (such as surgery, radiotherapy or stereotactic radiosurgery).
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because ABT-888 is PARP inhibitor with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with ABT-888, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with ABT-888. These potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study.
- HIV-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for PK interactions with ABT-888 as well as possible interactions with paclitaxel. In addition, these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy. However, HIV-positive patients without an AIDS-defining diagnosis who are not receiving agents with the potential for PK interactions with ABT-888 may be eligible.
- Patients with both hepatic and renal dysfunction will also be excluded.
- Patients who received and progressed on the combination of carboplatin/paclitaxel will not be eligible.
