The skippy 1 study

The pharmacological effects of using cabozantinib with a light breakfast

A phase II pharmacokinetic study
Single centre open label randomized cross-over design. Patients will be randomized to start with the experimental or standard regimen. In the experimental regimen, patients will take cabozantinib with a continental breakfast. In the standard regimen, patients will take cabozantinib in fasted state. After all pharmacokinetic samples have been completed, patients will switch to the other regimen.

Doel van het onderzoek

  • Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) [ Time Frame: Phase A: at both hospital admissions after at least 28 days on the regimen (t = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 24 hours) ]Increase of the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of the experimental regimen compared to the standard regimen
  • Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) [ Time Frame: Phase B: at both hospital admissions after at least 28 days on the regimen (t = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 24 hours, plus 96 hours if original dose of 60 mg daily) ]The comparison of the AUC of the experimental and the standard regimen.

Behandeling

  • No Intervention: Standard regimenPatients will continue to use cabozantinib in fasted state, as part of standard of care, in the recommended dose as prior to enrollment in the study.
  • Experimental: Experimental regimenIn phase A of the study, patients will take the prior recommended dose cabozantinib with a continental breakfast. In phase B of the study, patients will take 60 mg tablets with a continental breakfast, the frequency depending on their original dose in the standard regimen.Interventions:
    • Other: Continental breakfast
    • Other: Changing dose interval
