Experimental Treatment
Group I: NilotinibExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients who were on nilotinib treatment in a Novartis-sponsored study (parent study) and were benefiting from nilotinib treatment met the criteria for enrolment into the CAMN107A2409 study and to receive continued nilotinib treatment. The starting dose of nilotinib in the CAMN107A2409 study should have been the same as the last dose administered in the parent study. After the starting dose, the dose of nilotinib was based on the investigator's judgement. The dose of nilotinib should have been ≤ 800 mg/day for adult patients, 230mg/m2 body surface area (BSA) and ≤ 800 mg/day for pediatric patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Does this experimental trial represent a pioneering effort?

"AMN107 has been studied extensively since 2008, when Novartis Pharmaceuticals completed the initial trial. Following that study of 34 patients, AMN107 received its Phase 4 drug approval and is now being examined in 35 different trials across 42 countries with 566 cities participating."

Answered by AI

Has AMN107 previously been tested in any clinical research studies?

"Preliminary research into AMN107 began in 2008 at Novartis Investigative Site, and over the past decade 79 clinical trials have been concluded. At present, 35 additional studies are actively recruiting participants; most notably across a variety of locations within Toronto, Canada."

Answered by AI

Has AMN107 received the regulatory blessing of the Food and Drug Administration?

"Owing to its Phase 4 designation, which implies the drug is already approved for use, our team at Power gave AMN107 a score of 3 on the safety scale."

Answered by AI

Is this experiment actively recruiting participants?

"This clinical trial is not accepting participants. The study was first posted on March 29, 2013 and most recently edited October 4th 2022. For those searching for other studies, there are currently two trials recruiting patients with GIST and CML, as well as thirty-five enrolling AMN107 users."

Answered by AI

How many people are currently participating in this clinical trial?

"At the present moment, this clinical trial is no longer accepting participants. It was first announced on March 29th 2013 and its info was last updated on October 4th 2022. If you are seeking other trials to join, there exist two GIST/CML studies and 35 AMN107 research projects that currently have open recruitment policies."

Answered by AI

What is the geographic scope of this research endeavor?

"Currently, this trial is recruiting participants from 6 different sites. These locations include Toronto, Vancouver and Houston among a few other medical centres. To ensure minimal transport demands are placed on the patient when enrolling, it's best to select a clinic closest to your location."
