About this study
Official title: Phase II Study of MGI-114 (NSC# 683863) Administered Intravenously for Five Days Every 28 Days to Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of irofulven in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the antitumor activity of 6-hydroxymethylacylfulvene (MGI-114) when given daily for 5 days every 28 days to patients with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum. II. Evaluate the qualitative and quantitative toxicities of MGI-114 given on this schedule in this patient population.
OUTLINE: Patients receive 6-hydroxymethylacylfulvene (MGI-114) IV over 5 minutes daily for 5 consecutive days. Courses are repeated every 28 days. The minimum treatment period is 2 courses. Treatment continues indefinitely in the absence of unacceptable toxic effects or disease progression. Patients are followed at the end of every other course while on the study, and then every 3 months thereafter until death.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 18-35 patients will be accrued for this study within 6-10 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Irofulven (MGI-114) in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Antitumor Activity of MGI-114 (time frame: Every 28 day cycle). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Oct 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
