About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of SU011248 (Sutent) in Combination With Irinotecan and Cetuximab as a Second Line Regimen for Patients With Stage IV Colorectal Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of SU011248 and the highest dose of this drug that can be given safely in combination with the chemotherapy drugs irinotecan and cetuximab. Laboratory studies have shown that SU011248 may block the growth of blood vessels in tumors, which may prevent tumors from growing any further. Other studies have demonstrated the possibility that SU011248 may enhance the anti-tumor activity of other chemotherapy drugs such as irinotecan and cetuximab.

Read the detailed description
  • Participants will be given a supply of SU011248 capsules to take at home in the morning for two weeks. After taking the capsules for two weeks, there will be a one-week rest period.
  • Irinotecan will be administered on days 1 and 8 of every 21-day cycle as an intravenous infusion over 90 minutes. Cetuximab will be administered intravenously on days 1, 8 and 15 of every 21-day cycle. The first treatment of cetuximab is a larger dose. Beginning with the second treatment, the participant will receive a smaller dose of cetuximab.
  • Blood work will be repeated at every clinic visit on days 1 and 8. During cycle 1, blood will also be drawn on day 15.
  • Tumor assessments will be repeated after 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and every 9 weeks thereafter, and will be assessed by both a CT scan of the abdomen, pelvis, and a chest x-ray. MUGA scans will be repeated every 4 cycles (12 weeks).
  • Participants may continue to receive cycles of study treatment as long as their disease does not progress and they do not experience any serious side effects.

What participants receive

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

  • SU011248Drug

    Given orally in the morning for two weeks followed by a one week rest period (one cycle equals 21 days). Participants may continue to receive study treatment as long as their disease does not progress and they do not experience any serious side effects.

  • IrinotecanDrug

    Given intravenously on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle. Participants may continue to receive study treatment as long as their disease does not progress and they do not experience any serious side effects.

  • CetuximabDrug

    Given intravenously on days 8 and 15 of each 21-day cycle. Participants may continue to receive study treatment as long as their disease does not progress and they do not experience any serious side effects.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose of SU011248 when given in combination with irinotecan and cetuximab in patients with previously treated locally advanced, locally recurrent, or metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma

    Measured: 1 year

  2. To determine the response rate of SU011248 when given in combination with irinotecan and cetuximab in this patient population.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the toxicities of this combination of drugs in this patient population

    Measured: 1 year

  2. to assess overall survival, progression-free survival, time to progression and duration of response.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing SU011248, Irinotecan and Cetuximab in people with Colorectal Carcinoma, run by Massachusetts General Hospital at 3 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 10 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

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 was stopped early (reason given: Slow Accrual). 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?

To determine the maximum tolerated dose of SU011248 when given in combination with irinotecan and cetuximab in patients with previously treated locally advanced, locally recurrent, or metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma (time frame: 1 year). 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 17 Feb 2017.
