About this study

Official title: A Phase II Evaluation of Lapatinib (GW572016) (NCI-Supplied Agent, NSC #727989) in the Treatment of Persistent or Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian or Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma

Lapatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well lapatinib works in treating patients with persistent or recurrent ovarian epithelial or peritoneal cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: Primary I. Determine 6-month progression-free survival of patients with persistent or recurrent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cancer treated with lapatinib.

II. Determine the nature and degree of toxicity of this drug in these patients.

Secondary I. Determine the clinical response rate (partial and complete response) in patients treated with this drug.

II. Determine the duration of progression-free and overall survival of patients treated with this drug.

III. Determine the impact of prognostic variables, including platinum sensitivity, performance status, and cellular histology (clear cell or mucinous type), on patients treated with this drug.

IV. Correlate tumor levels of expression of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR), phosphorylated EGFR, HER2/neu, and Ki-67, as determined by immunohistochemistry, with clinical response in patients treated with this drug.

  1. Correlate EGFR mutations in tumor DNA with clinical response in patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral lapatinib once daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 22-60 patients will be accrued for this study within 12-26 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) > 6 Months

    Progression is defined according to RECIST v1.0 as at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since study entry, the appearance of one or more new lesions, death due to disease without prior objective documentation of progression, global deterioration in health status attributable to the disease requiring a change in therapy without objective evidence of progression, or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

    Measured: For those patients whose disease can be evaluated by physical examination, progression was assessed prior to each 28-day cycle. CT scan or MRI if used to follow measurable disease every other cycle for the first 6 months

  2. Frequency and Severity of Adverse Effects as Assessed by Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0

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

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Tumor Response

    RECIST 1.0 defines complete response as the disappearance of all target lesions and non-target lesions and no evidence of new lesions documented by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart. Partial response is defined as 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 non-target lesions and no new lesions. Documentation by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart is required. In the case where the ONLY target lesion is a solitary pelvic mass measured by physical exam, which is not radiographically measurable, a 50% decrease in the LD is required. These patients will have their response classified according to the definitions stated above. Complete and partial responses are included in the objective tumor response rate.

    Measured: Baseline, every other cycle for 6 months and then every 6 months for up to 5 years

  2. Duration of Progression-free Survival

    Progression is defined according to RECIST v1.0 as at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since study entry, the appearance of one or more new lesions, death due to disease without prior objective documentation of progression, global deterioration in health status attributable to the disease requiring a change in therapy without objective evidence of progression, or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

    Measured: Every other cycle for 6 months and then every 6 months for up to 5 years.

  3. Overall Survival

    The observed length of life from entry into the study to death or the date of last contact.

    Measured: From entry into the study to death or the date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years

  4. Prognostic Variable: Platinum Sensitivity

    Patients who had disease progression within 6 months of ending their last regimen of platinum therapy were considered platinum resistant. Patients who had disease progression between 6 and 12 months of ending their last platinum regimen were considered platinum sensitive. Patients who had disease progression beyond12 months of ending their last platinum regimen were also considered platinum sensitive.

    Measured: Baseline

  5. Prognostic Variables: Performance Status

    Performance Status 0 = Fully active, able to carry on all pre-disease performance without restriction Performance Status 1 = Restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of light or sedentary nature, e.g., light housework, office work Performance Status 2 = Ambulatory and capable of all self care but unable to carry out any work activities. Up and about more than 50% of waking hours.

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Prognostic Variable: Cellular Histology

    Number of patients with Clear Cell Carcinoma or Mucinous Carcinoma

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing lapatinib ditosylate and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Primary Peritoneal Cavity Cancer and Recurrent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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?

The sponsor lists 56 inclusion and 0 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 24 Jul 2019. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Jun 2015). 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?

Progression-free Survival (PFS) > 6 Months (time frame: For those patients whose disease can be evaluated by physical examination, progression was assessed prior to each 28-day cycle. CT scan or MRI if used to follow measurable disease every other cycle for the first 6 months). 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 24 Jul 2019.
