Chemotherapy Plus IM-862 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
A Phase 2 study testing fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride and oglufanide disodium in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by University of Southern California at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. IM-862 may stop the growth of colorectal cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known if chemotherapy is more effective with or without IM-862 in treating colorectal cancer.

About this study
Official title: Phase II Randomized Placebo-Controlled Double-Blinded Study With 5-FU vs. 5-FU With IM862 With Cross-Over to CPT-11 vs. CPT-11 With IM862
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. IM-862 may stop the growth of colorectal cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known if chemotherapy is more effective with or without IM-862 in treating colorectal cancer.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy plus IM-862 in treating patients who have metastatic colorectal cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the efficacy of fluorouracil with or without IM-862 in terms of progression free survival in patients with previously untreated or recurrent metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum. II. Determine the toxicity of IM-862 and fluorouracil in these patients. III. Determine the efficacy of IM-862 in combination with irinotecan in terms of progression free survival in patients who have disease progression after receiving fluorouracil. IV. Obtain preliminary data on molecular markers of response and time to progression by determining levels of genes involved in adhesion, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and drug resistance prior to and during chemotherapy. V. Determine the molecular correlates for response and time to progression through analysis of serum and urine markers of angiogenesis, such as vascular endothelial growth factor and fibroblast growth factor, in patients treated with IM-862 in combination with fluorouracil or irinotecan. VI. Compare the quality of life of patients treated with these regimens.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, crossover study. Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms: Arm I: Patients receive fluorouracil IV continuously on days 1-21 and IM-862 intranasally three times daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression. Patients who develop disease progression are taken off fluorouracil and IM-862, and then receive irinotecan IV over 90 minutes weekly for 4 weeks. Courses repeat every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression. Arm II: Patients receive fluorouracil as in arm I and placebo intranasally three times daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression. Patients who develop disease progression are taken off fluorouracil and placebo, and then receive irinotecan and IM-862 as in arm I on days 1-42. Courses repeat every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression. Quality of life is assessed prior to study, and then prior to every course during study. Patients are followed for a minimum of 6 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 66 patients (33 per arm) will be accrued for this study within 26-27 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride and oglufanide disodium in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by University of Southern California 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 2014. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Drug not available). Results are not available in the source record.
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 22 May 2014.
