Brief Title: Study of Safety & Efficacy of the Combination of LJM716 & BYL719 in Patients With Previously Treated Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC)
Official Title: A Phase Ib/II, Open-label Study of LJM716 in Combination With BYL719 Compared to Taxane or Irinotecan in Patients With Previously Treated Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC)
Study ID: NCT01822613
Brief Summary: To study the safety and efficacy of the combination of LJM716 and BYL719 against currently available treatments of physician's choice in previously treated esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.
Detailed Description: The study design included a Phase 1b dose escalation portion to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the combination of LJM716 and alpelisib, followed by an open-label, randomized Phase 2 part to compare anti-tumor activity of LJM716-alpelisib combination versus physician's choice of second-line therapy (paclitaxel, docetaxel, irinotecan). However, the phase 2 part was not conducted as the study was terminated early due to limited anti-tumor activity with LJM716-alpelisib combination observed in phase 1b.
