Trial summary

RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep tumors from forming, growing, or coming back. Zoledronate may prevent the growth of cervical cancer by blocking blood flow to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia cells. The use of zoledronate may keep cancer from forming.

About this study

Official title: An Exploratory Clinical Trial of Zoledronic Acid in Women With CIN 2/3 or 3

RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep tumors from forming, growing, or coming back. Zoledronate may prevent the growth of cervical cancer by blocking blood flow to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia cells. The use of zoledronate may keep cancer from forming.

PURPOSE: This randomized is studying how well zoledronate works in treating patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 or 3.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Assess clinical response, in terms of lesion size and histological grade, of oledronate in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 or 3.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, pilot study. Patients are stratified according to degree of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) (CIN2/3 vs CIN3). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Zoledronate: 100 cc of saline with 4 mg of Zoledronate intravenous (IV), over 20 minutes, for 3 doses one week apart
  • Placebo: 100 cc of saline (IV), over 20 minutes, for 3 doses one week apart

In both arms, treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 3 courses. In week 8, patients undergo surgical resection comprising loop excision or cone biopsy.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at week 10 by telephone.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 44 patients will be accrued for this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Impact of Zoledronic Acid (ZA) on clinical response

    The primary objective is to determine whether Zoledronic Acid (ZA), when given to women with CIN 2/3 or 3 for two months prior to surgical excision, has a measurable impact on clinical response (lesion size and histological grade).

    Measured: 10 weeks from start of treatment

Timeline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Zoledronate in people with Cervical Cancer and Precancerous Condition, run by University of California, San Francisco 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 24 Nov 2017. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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: Accrual was insufficient to meet study endpoints). 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Impact of Zoledronic Acid (ZA) on clinical response (time frame: 10 weeks from start of treatment). 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 Nov 2017.
