Trial summary

This phase II trial is studying fulvestrant to see how well it works in treating patients with recurrent, persistent, or metastatic endometrial cancer. Estrogen can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight cancer by blocking the uptake of estrogen by the tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Faslodex ? in Recurrent/Metastatic Endometrial Carcinoma

This phase II trial is studying fulvestrant to see how well it works in treating patients with recurrent, persistent, or metastatic endometrial cancer. Estrogen can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight cancer by blocking the uptake of estrogen by the tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Compare the probability of clinical response in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive vs ER-negative patients with recurrent, persistent, or metastatic endometrial cancer treated with fulvestrant.

II. Compare the relationship between response rate and intensity of receptor expression in patients treated with this drug.

III. Determine the frequency and intensity of toxicity of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive fulvestrant intramuscularly on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for at least 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical Response by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria Evaluated Every 8 Weeks

    Primary outcome measured according to RECIST v1.0 Best Response:

    Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no evidence of new lesions documented by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart

    Disease Progression is at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as references the smallest sum LD or the appearance of new lesions within 8 weeks of study entry.

    Partial Response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of longest dimensions (LD) of all target measurable lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of LD. There can be no unequivocal progression of nontarget lesions and no new lesions. Documentation by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart is required

    Stable Disease is any condition not meeting the above criteria.

    Indeterminate is defined as having no repeat tumor assessments following initiation of study therapy for reasons unrelated to symptoms or signs of disease.

    Measured: Response was measured every other cycle (every 8 weeks) until disease progression is documented or adverse events preclude further treatment.

  2. Clinical Response by RECIST Criteria of Estrogen Receptor Expression

    Per response evaluation criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST 1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR) >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions. Overall Response = CR+PR

    Measured: Every other cycle (every 8 weeks) until disease progression is documented or adverse events preclude further treatment, assessed up to 100 months.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With Grade 3 or Greater Toxicity by Common Toxicity Criteria Version 3.0 That Were at Least Possibly Related to Study Drug.

    Adverse events at least possibly related to Fulvestrant using Common Terminology Criteria version 3.0 that were grade 3 or higher with the exception of the reported Grade 5. Grade 5 adverse events were reported regardless of attribution to study treatment.

    Measured: During study treatment and up to 30 days after stopping study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Fulvestrant in people with Recurrent Uterine Corpus Carcinoma and Stage III Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7, run by Gynecologic Oncology Group.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2019. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Jun 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Clinical Response by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria Evaluated Every 8 Weeks (time frame: Response was measured every other cycle (every 8 weeks) until disease progression is documented or adverse events preclude further treatment.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Mar 2019.
