Safety and Efficacy Study of TAR-0520 Gel in Prevention of Taxane-induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Официальное название

A Phase 2a Safety and Efficacy Study of TAR-0520 Gel in Prevention of Taxane-induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Обзор

Taxane -induced peripheral neuropthy (TIPN) and nail toxicites are frequent side effects of taxane therapy in breast cancer patients.. TIPN involves the hands and the feet ,its symptoms comprise numbness,tingling,altered touch sensation, impaired vibration, parasthesia and dysesthesias induced by touch, warm or cool temperatures. This study investigate the preventive effect of TAR-0520 gel on TIPN and on nail toxicity. Breast cancer patients under taxanes therapy will apply TAR-0520 Gel to one hand and the homolateral foot including fingers and toes. Other hand and foot will be untreated and will serve as control. Patients will be followed during the 12 cycles of taxane therapy. Evaluations of TIPN will include clinical assessments by the oncologist, examination by a neurologist, patient questionnaires administered by a nurse and objective neurophysiological measures conducted by trained personnel. Evaluation of taxane nail toxicity will include a clinical grading by a nurse and a patient questionnaire.

Подробное описание

This is a Phase 2a, open label, intra-individual study with approximately 30 patients included.

Principal objective of the study is to confirm the local and systemic safety of TAR-0520 Gel applied twice daily to one hand and one foot, in breast cancer patients treated with taxanes.

Secondary objectives of the study are:

* To explore the preventative effect of TAR-0520 Gel on taxane-induced TIPN, * To explore the preventative effect of TAR-0520 Gel on taxane-induced onycholysis and other nail changes.

Each patient will receive the active drug candidate TAR-0520 gel for 3 days at each taxane cycle (usually 12 cycles with an infusion every week). During these 3 days, TAR-0520 gel will be applied to one hand and one foot, twice daily, starting the day of taxane infusion and continuing the next two days (thus covering the period when Paclitaxel will be circulating: elimination half-life of the drug is approximately 24 hours).

TAR-0520 gel will be applied by the patients themselves using their dominant hand wearing a glove, patients will apply TAR-0520 gel to the contro-lateral hand and foot. Test product is to be applied to both palmo-plantar and dorsal areas of hand and foot including fingers/toes and the skin surrounding nails. No product is to be applied to the hand and foot on the other side (dominant hand side).

Patients will be included one week before the taxane treatment initiation and followed during the 12 taxane cycles as well as 12 weeks later (follow-up visit). Evaluations of TIPN will include clinical assessments by the oncologist, examination by a neurologist, patient questionnaire administered by a nurse and objective neurophysiological measures conducted by trained personnel. Evaluation of nail toxicities will include clinical grading by a nurse and a patient questionnaire.

The study will include 17 visits: a Screening visit, 15 evaluations visits and a follow-up visit (Final assessment) that will occur approximately 12 weeks after the last taxane infusion.

Evaluations visits will be conducted one week before the first taxane infusion, the days of taxane infusions, between the 6th and the 7th cycle of taxane infusion, one week after the last taxane infusion and at a follow-up visit, 3 months after the last taxane infusion. This design will allow to assess TIPN progression during treatment as well as persistent TIPN following treatment discontinuation.
