About this study

The drug being tested in this study is called MLN2480 (TAK-580). MLN2480 was tested to evaluate side effects and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose for future studies when administered in combination with five other medications. This study was to assess the safety of MLN2480 as well as how it is processed by the body in participants with solid nonhematologic malignancies who have failed standard therapies.

The study was to be conducted in two phases, the dose escalation phase and the dose expansion phase. A total of 71 participants were enrolled in the escalation phase. Participants in this phase were assigned to one of the five treatment groups:

  • MLN2480 + MLN0128
  • MLN2480 + Alisertib
  • MLN2480 + Paclitaxel
  • MLN2480 + Cetuximab
  • MLN2480 + Irinotecan

Once the MTD for each combination treatment arm was established in the escalation phase, one or more of the combination treatments will be selected for the expansion phase. A total of 10 participants were enrolled in the expansion phase.

This multi-centre trial was be conducted worldwide. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 14 months. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic including an end of study visit 30 days after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

  17. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Baseline then every 2 cycles beginning at Cycle 2, Day 27, until disease progression, death or end of study (Approximately up to 13 months)

    PFS is defined as the time in months from the date of first study drug administration to the date of first documented PD or death due to any cause. PD was based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST V1.1), defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
