Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Minnelide Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
A 3+3 design will be used. The first 3 patients will be treated at dose level 1. If none experience a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT), the next 3 patients will be treated at dose level 2. If a DLT is observed in 1 out of 3 patients at dose level 1, up to an 3 more patients will be enrolled and treated at that dose level. If 2 patients at dose level have DLTs, dosing will be lowered to dose level -1 (.5 mg daily, taken orally). If 2 or more of the up to 6 patients at any dose level have DLTs, the preceding dose will be declared the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). If more than 1 DLT occurs at Dose Level -1, the investigators will consider stopping the study. Once the MTD has been established, an additional 10 patients will be enrolled at this level to better characterize safety and tolerability.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What outcomes are researchers hoping to uncover through this investigation?

"This clinical trial seeks to identify the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Minnelide, with a 28 day window per dosing cohort. The secondary objectives are measuring Participants who experience Complete Response (CR) and Complete Response with Incomplete Blood Count Recovery (CRi), Overall Survival (OS), and Overall Response Rate (ORR)."

Answered by AI

Is this trial actively accepting new participants?

"Affirmative. Data found on clinicaltrials.gov attests to the current recruitment of patients for this trial, which was first posted April 18th 2019 and most recently updated November 2nd 2022. 28 participants are needed from 1 medical facility."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA permitted the use of Minnelide?

"Since Minnelide is still in its first phase of testing, with little evidence that it can be both safe and effective, the safety rating given was 1."

Answered by AI

What is the most robust participant count for this trial?

"Affirmative, the information available on clinicaltrials.gov suggests that this survey is actively seeking participants. It was initially launched on April 18th 2019 and has been updated as recently as November 2nd 2022. The research requires 28 volunteers from a single facility to take part in it."
