About this study

Official title: A Phase IB Study of Oral Administration of SCH 66336 Preoperatively in Patients With Colorectal Carcinoma Metastatic to the Liver Scheduled for Exploratory Laparotomy and/or Resection

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase I trial to compare the effectiveness of different doses of SCH 66336 before surgery in treating patients who have colorectal cancer that has metastasized to the liver.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the biologic activity and safety of preoperative SCH 66336 in patients with colorectal carcinoma metastatic to the liver.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to one of four doses of preoperative SCH 66336 (no treatment, 100 mg, 200 mg, or 300 mg). Patients receive oral SCH 66336 twice daily for 7-14 days prior to exploratory laparotomy and/or resection of hepatic metastases. Patients randomized to no treatment may undergo surgery at any time within 15 days of randomization. Other patients undergo surgery on days 8-15.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 40 patients (10 per arm) will be accrued for this study within 10 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SCH 66336 and conventional surgery in people with Colorectal Cancer and Metastatic Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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.

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 14 Nov 2018.
