Intraperitoneal Paclitaxel Albumin-Stabilized Nanoparticle Formulation in Treating Patients With Advanced Cancer of the Peritoneal Cavity
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified December 2011 by City of Hope Medical Center

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00825201
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation directly into the abdomen may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of intraperitoneal paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation in treating patients with advanced cancer of the peritoneal cavity.

Estimated Enrollment: 20
Study Start Date: December 2008
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Drug: paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation
    nab-paclitaxel administered intraperitoneally on days 1, 8 and 15 of a 28 day cycle. Dose escalation: Level 1- 35 mg/m2/dose, Level 2- 70 mg/m2/dose and Level 3- 90 mg/m2/dose
    Other: liquid chromatography
    Plasma and peritoneal fluid samples will be collected prior to nab-paclitaxel, at completion of nab-paclitaxel infusion and at hours 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 48 following completion of infusion.
    Other: mass spectrometry
    Plasma and peritoneal fluid samples will be collected prior to nab-paclitaxel, at completion of nab-paclitaxel infusion and at hours 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 48 following completion of infusion.
    Other: pharmacological study
    Plasma and peritoneal fluid samples will be collected prior to nab-paclitaxel, at completion of nab-paclitaxel infusion and at hours 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 48 following completion of infusion.
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine the maximum tolerated dose of intraperitoneal paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation in patients with advanced malignancies primarily confined to the peritoneal cavity.

Secondary

  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics and potential pharmacokinetic advantage of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive intraperitoneal paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Plasma and peritoneal fluid samples are collected periodically for pharmacokinetic analysis by liquid chromatography and mass spectometry.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 4 weeks.
