Phase 2 Study of Cediranib and Olaparib for Advanced Solid Tumors

Sponsor: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Sponsor score: 0

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT02498613

This clinical trial is testing a combination of two drugs, cediranib and olaparib, to see if they can help treat advanced solid tumors, including breast, lung, and pancreatic cancers, that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The study aims to find out if the combination of cediranib and olaparib can stop the growth of advanced solid tumors by blocking certain enzymes needed for tumor growth. Cediranib may also reduce the tumor's blood supply, making it more sensitive to olaparib. The trial includes patients with various cancers such as breast, lung, and pancreatic cancer that have spread or cannot be surgically removed.

Description

The main goal of this study is to see how well the combination of cediranib and olaparib works in shrinking tumors in patients with advanced cancers like non-small cell lung cancer, triple-negative breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and small cell lung cancer. Researchers will also look at how safe and tolerable the treatment is for patients.

Participants will take cediranib once a day and olaparib twice a day. The treatment cycles last 28 days, with the first cycle being 35 days. Patients will continue the treatment as long as it is effective and does not cause unacceptable side effects.

After finishing the treatment, patients will be monitored for four weeks. If they stop the treatment for reasons other than disease progression or withdrawal, they will continue to be monitored every four weeks until their disease progresses, they start a new therapy, or they pass away.
