Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have histologically proven stage IVB, recurrent or persistent squamous cell carcinoma, adenosquamous carcinoma, or adenocarcinoma of the cervix which is not amenable to curative treatment with surgery and/or radiation therapy
  • Age greater than or equal to 18
  • All patients must have measurable disease. Measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest dimension to be recorded). Each lesion must be greater than or equal to 20 mm when measured by conventional techniques, including palpation, plain x-ray, CT, and MRI, or greater than or equal to 10 mm when measured by spiral CT. Biopsy confirmation is required if the lesion measures < 30 mm or if the treating physician determines it is clinically indicated. Patients must have at least one "target lesion" to be used to assess response on this protocol as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). This lesion should be the one that was biopsied if one was performed. Patients with tumors within and outside a previously irradiated field should have the lesion outside of the irradiated area preferentially designated as the "target" lesion.
  • Patients must have adequate:
  • Hematologic function: ANC greater than or equal to 1500/mm3; Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/mm3; Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 8.0 g/dl
  • Renal function: Serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.2 mg/dl. Patients with a serum creatinine greater than 1.2 mg/dl but less than 1.5 mg/dl must have a 24-hour creatinine clearance determination of > 50 cc/min to be eligible.
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Hepatic function: Total Bilirubin must be within normal limits. Transaminases (SGOT and/or SGPT) may be up to 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) if alkaline phosphatase is less than or equal to ULN, or alkaline phosphatase may be up to 4 x ULN if transaminases are less than or equal to ULN
  • Patients must have a GOG Performance Status of 0 or 1.
  • Patients must have recovered from the effects of surgery, radiation therapy, or chemoradiotherapy. At least six weeks must have elapsed from the last administration of chemoradiotherapy, and at least three weeks must have elapsed from the last administration of radiation therapy alone.
  • Patients must have signed an approved informed consent form.
  • Patients must be free of clinically active infection.
  • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test. Women of childbearing potential must be willing to consent to using effective contraception while on treatment until they reach menopause.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with bilateral hydronephrosis which cannot be alleviated by ureteral stents or percutaneous drainage. Patients with a serum creatinine greater than 1.2 mg/dl but less than 1.5 mg/dl with a 24-hour creatinine clearance determination of < 50 cc/min.
  • Patients with a serum creatinine of 1.5 mg/dl or greater.
  • Patients previously treated with chemotherapy except when used concurrently with radiation therapy
  • Patients with a history of severe hypersensitivity reaction to docetaxel, drugs formulated with polysorbate 80, fluoropyrimidine therapy or 5-FU.
  • Patients who are pregnant or lactating
  • Patients with craniospinal metastases or history of craniospinal metastases.
  • Patients with a concomitant malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancer.
  • Patients with a prior invasive malignancy (except non-melanoma skin cancer) who have had any evidence of disease within the last 5 years or whose prior malignancy treatment contraindicates the current protocol therapy.

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Capecitabine and Docetaxel in the Treatment of Advanced and Recurrent Cervical Cancer

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and side effects of the drugs capecitabine and docetaxel in the treatment of cervical cancer. Capecitabine is approved by the FDA for the treatment of breast and colon cancer. Docetaxel is approved in the treatment of breast and lung cancer. The use of capecitabine and docetaxel in this study for the treatment of cervical cancer is considered investigational. Eligible subjects will take the drug capecitabine (Xeloda) by mouth twice a day every 12 hours, for fourteen consecutive days followed by a 7 day rest period. Subjects will also receive the drug docetaxel (Taxotere) intravenously (in the vein) every three weeks.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Estimate response rate

    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. Normalization of CA125, if elevated at baseline, is required for ovarian carcinoma studies. 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 non-target lesions and no new lesions. Documentation by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart is required.

    Measured: Weekly

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determine progression free and overall survival

    Progression free survival-will be calculated from the date of first treatment to the date of disease progression or the date of death or the cut-off date using Kaplan Meier methods.

    Overall survival-will be calculated from the date of first treatment until death or the cut-off date using Kaplan Meier methods.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Capecitabine and Docetaxel in people with Cervical Cancer, run by University of California, Irvine 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 12 inclusion and 8 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 8 Feb 2013. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Estimate response rate (time frame: Weekly). 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 8 Feb 2013.
