NCT02020291
The Wnt proteins belong to a family of proteins that have been demonstrated to play a role in the formation and dissemination of tumours. The present project focuses on the critical role of the Wnt-5a protein in the pathobiological processes that lead to metastatic cancer disease. WntResearch has identified a formylated 6 amino acid peptide fragment, named Foxy-5, which mimick the effects of Wnt-5a to impair migration of epithelial cancer cells and thereby acting anti-metastatic. The aim of the present clinical phase 1 trial is to establish the recommended dose for a clinical phase 2 study and thereby further develop Foxy-5 as a first in class anti-metastatic cancer drug. Foxy-5 is designed to inhibit the development of metastasis by reducing the motility of cancer cells and should thereby increase the survival rates of patients with solid malignant tumours.

A Phase Ib Study of Lapatinib in Combination with Caelyx in Patients with Advanced HER2 positive pretreated Breast Cancer. Treatment Plan: Lapatinib is given at escalating doses orally and continuously on days 1-21. Caelyx is administered at escalating doses in a 60-minute i.v. infusion on day 1. Each cycle is defined as 21 days. Four dose levels are planned. Dose level -1, Caelyx 30 mg/mq \& Lapatinib 1000 mg die; dose level 1, Caelyx 30 mg/mq \& Lapatinib 1250 mg die; dose level 2, Caelyx 30 mg/mq \& Lapatinib 1500 mg die; dose level 3, Caelyx 40 mg/mq \& Lapatinib 1500 mg die. Three patients will be initially enrolled in each dose level starting from level 1. If none of the first triplet of patients will develop DLT, the dose will be escalated to the next level for the subsequent three patients. If one of the first triplets of patients will develop first-course DLT, a maximum of 3 additional patients will be entered at the same dose level. The MTD is defined as the dose below that at which two patients have experienced DLT. Lapatinib will be self-administered by the patient in an outpatient setting at the dose of the assigned step. Patients will take the drug daily by mouth on days 1 to 21 of each cycle. Caelyx will be administered by intravenous infusion over an exact period of 1 hour (preferably by a pump to guarantee a constant speed of infusion) on day 1 of each cycle repeated every 21 days. STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY: Evaluation of toxicity: all patients will be evaluable for toxicity from the time of their first treatment with Caelyx and Lapatinib. Evaluation of response: all patients included in the study must be assessed for response to treatment, even if there are major protocol treatment deviations or if they are ineligible. All conclusions should be based on all eligible patients. Subanalyses may then be performed on the basis of a subset of patients, excluding those for whom major protocol deviations have been identified .However, these subanalyses may not serve as the basis for drawing conclusions concerning treatment efficacy, and the reasons for excluding patients from the analysis should be clearly reported. The 95% confidence intervals should also be provided.
