Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study was a randomized, single dose crossover comparison of the investigational product with a Reference Product (vinorelbine tartrate injection, NAVELBINE®). The primary objective was to demonstrate the equivalence of ANX-530 and the Reference Product, NAVELBINE.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Vinorelbine Tartrate
Phase 1

Detailed Description

ANX-530 (vinorelbine tartrate injectable emulsion), an investigational drug, is an oil-in-water emulsion of vinorelbine tartrate composed of an oil phase and emulsifier dispersed in an aqueous solution. ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. of San Diego, California, developed ANX-530 as a vinorelbine tartrate formulation to be used in clinical settings where Vinorelbine Tartrate Injection (NAVELBINE) is indicated. Nonclinical toxicology studies suggest either equivalent or less toxicity of ANX-530 compared to Reference Product. In particular, ANX-530 caused less vein toxicity in a rabbit vein irritation model, suggesting ANX-530 could potentially cause less venous irritation than NAVELBINE in a clinical setting. ADVENTRX is investigating whether ANX-530 could substitute for NAVELBINE in these settings.

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentratio-Time Curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Measurable Concentration (AUClast) [0-144 hours post-dose]

    Determined Using the Linear Trapezoidal Rule

  4. Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity (AUCinf) [0-144 hours post-dose]

    AUCinf = AUClast + (Clast/lamda z)

  7. Observed Terminal Elimination Half-Life (t1/2) [0-144 hours post-dose]

    t1/2 = [ln(2)/λ z]

Adverse Events

Time Frame AEs and their treatment were documented from the time of the first dose of study medication until 30 days after the last dose. Mild, moderate and severe AEs not related to study treatment were followed for approx 30 days after the last study drug dose.
Adverse Event Reporting Description Events that were serious, life threatening or related to study treatment were followed until resolution, downgrading of an SAE to non-serious, subject death, start of new cancer therapy or re-assessment of the event's relationship to study medication.
