Scientific titleA phase I open label multicentre trial of figitumumab, an insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGFR-1R) antibody, in children aged 1 - 12 years old with relapsed/refractory solid tumour
Study acronymFOREST
Study objectivesThe aim of this study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of figitumumab.
Ethics approval(s)1. UK: Trent Research Ethics Committee pending as of 15/06/2010
2. France: pending as of 15/06/2010
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedRelapsed/refractory solid tumours
InterventionFigitumumab given on day 1 of a three weekly cycle as a 2.5 hour intravenous (IV) infusion. Starting dose 6 mg/kg with escalation cohorts that include 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg.

In cycle one only, patients recieve a second identical loading dose given on day 2.

Patients can receive up to 12 cycles of treatment providing there is clinical benefit. Follow up is up to 90 days after the last dose received or until the patient receives further therapy for their disease.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhasePhase I
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Figitumumab
Primary outcome measureSafety, measured by assessment of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 assessing grade timing, seriousness and relatedness. Outcome will be measured after cycle 1.
Secondary outcome measures1. Pharmacokinetic blood sampling looking at plasma figitumumab concentrations, anti-drug antibodies, serum IGF-1/2, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFCP-3), insulin and growth hormone levels, measured Cycle 1 day 1, 2 and 8 and then prior to cycle 4. Antidrug antibodies measured cycle 1 day 1 and end of treatment.
2. Response to treatment measured by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST) criteria or by nuclear imaging or histology, measured every 2 cycles
