Study Summary

This trial will test different doses of a new drug to find the safest and most effective dose. The trial will enroll additional subjects at each dose level until a total of 9 subjects have completed the trial without having any serious side effects.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced solid tumors like melanoma, kidney, lung, colorectal carcinoma, prostate cancer, and neuroendocrine tumor that's worsening despite standard therapy. They must have measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 criteria, good organ function (bone marrow, liver, kidneys), ECOG performance status ≤1 (able to carry out light activity), and agree to use contraception if of childbearing potential.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing different doses of a drug called rSIFN-co in patients with various types of advanced cancers. It uses an 'EffTox' method to find the best dose by looking at both effectiveness and safety over time before deciding on the optimal dose for further study.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here for rSIFN-co as it's under investigation, common side effects from similar treatments may include fatigue, flu-like symptoms such as fever or chills, injection site reactions and changes in blood counts which could affect organ functions.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How many individuals are eligible for enrollment in this experiment?

"This clinical trial is no longer taking on participants. It initially opened for enrollment in January 2016 and was last updated June 16th 2022. However, if you are searching for other trials, there are 165 medical studies that require people with kidney issues as well as 1 study looking to enrol those dealing with rSIFN-co."

Answered by AI

Has there been a similar research effort in the past?

"Since 2016, the drug rSIFN-co has undergone extensive research. Medelis Inc. initiated its first clinical trial in that year with 36 participants and successfully completed Phase 1 Drug Approval Stage by 2020. Currently, this organisation is sponsoring one active study on the medication."

Answered by AI

What criteria must someone meet to be eligible for this research endeavor?

"This clinical trial is in need of 36 volunteers that are aged 18 and 80, suffering from advanced solid tumors such as melanoma, kidney cancer, lung cancer, colorectal carcinoma, prostate cancer or neuroendocrine tumor. To be eligible for consideration applicants must comply with the following criteria: gender (male/female), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status level less than 1; have at least one target lesion according to RECIST 1.1 standards; prior systemic chemotherapy permitted; adequate hepatic function (total bilirubin ≤2 ULN); creatinine clearance greater than 40ml/min.; hemoglobin"

Answered by AI

What other research projects have utilized rSIFN-co as a part of their study?

"As of now, 1 study is ongoing for rSIFN-co with none at Phase 3. Most experiments are conducted in Chicago, Illinois; however, other 4 locations have studies underway as well."

Answered by AI

Are there still open slots for participants in this trial?

"This investigation has concluded its recruitment process. The initial posting of the trial occurred on January 1st, 2016 with a final edit made June 16th 2022. If you are searching for other studies there are presently 165 trials enrolling patients experiencing kidney-related issues and one study recruiting participants with rSIFN-co."

Answered by AI

Do the criteria for this medical trial include individuals aged 45 and older?

"This clinical trial has a wide age range for enrollment, with the lower limit set at 18 and the upper boundary being 80 years old."

Answered by AI

What implications does administering rSIFN-co have for individuals’ well-being?

"There is scant clinical data affirming the safety and efficacy of rSIFN-co, so it received a rating of 1 on our scale."
