About this study

Official title: A Randomized Double-Blind Phase II Trial of Celecoxib, A COX-2 Inhibitor, in the Treatment of Patients With Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia 2/3 or 3 (CIN 2/3 or 3)

This randomized phase II trial studies how well celecoxib works in treating patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, a precancerous lesion of the cervix which can develop into cervical cancer. Celecoxib may be effective in preventing the development of cervical cancer in patients who have cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the efficacy of celecoxib to induce complete remission (or partial regression to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1) of CIN 2/3 or CIN 3 as evaluated in the post-treatment excisional biopsy.

II. To determine the toxicity of celecoxib (400 mg once daily) as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events in this patient population of women with CIN 2/3 or CIN 3.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess whether treatment with celecoxib changes the number of quadrants containing acetowhite lesions as determined through colposcopic examination.

II. To determine the efficacy of celecoxib treatment in changing human papillomavirus (HPV) viral load in cervical cells.

III. To examine the association of histologic response; HPV viral load; lesion size; proliferation index (marker of proliferation Ki-67 [Ki67]), apoptosis index (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end labelin [TUNEL] assay), angiogenesis (vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF]), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in tissue; the amount of VEGF and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in serum before and after treatment; and the amount of celecoxib present in serum during treatment. Cervical cytology karyometry will be assessed as a potential marker for regression IV. To determine the feasibility of digital imaging, web-based review of histopathology in a Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) study.

  1. To compare the diagnoses of the web-based review of histopathology with the diagnoses of GOG's standard procedure.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I: Patients receive oral celecoxib once daily for 14-18 weeks.

ARM II: Patients receive oral placebo once daily for 14-18 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Histologic Regression

    Whether or not patients with CIN 2/3 or CIN 3 upon entry experience a complete remission (or partial regression to CIN 1) in the post-treatment excisional biopsy.

    Measured: Post treatment evaluation was done 14 to 18 weeks after treatment randomization

  2. Incidence of Adverse Effects (Grade 3 or Higher) as Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 3.0

    Number of participants with a grade of 3 or higher during the treatment period.

    Measured: Assessed every cycle while on treatment, 30 days after the last cycle of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Celecoxib and Laboratory Biomarker Analysis in people with Cervical Carcinoma and Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia Grade 2/3, run by Gynecologic Oncology Group at 43 sites 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?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. 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 15 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 15 Sep 2017). 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?

Histologic Regression (time frame: Post treatment evaluation was done 14 to 18 weeks after treatment randomization). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00081263, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 Sep 2017.
