About this study

Official title: Multicenter, Open-Label, Phase 2 Study Of CPX-1 (Irinotecan HCl: Floxuridine) Liposome Injection In Patients With Advanced Colorectal Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to determine whether CPX-1 is effective in patients with advanced colorectal cancer who have already received chemotherapy that included the drug oxaliplatin or irinotecan. All patients will receive CPX-1 at a dose of 210 units/m2 over 90 minutes every two weeks.

Read the detailed description

CPX-1 Liposome Injection is a liposomal formulation of a fixed combination of the antineoplastic drugs irinotecan HCl and floxuridine. The two drugs are present inside the liposome in a fixed 1:1 molar ratio. CPX-1 was developed as a means of delivering and preserving a fixed 1:1 molar ratio of the two drugs. This ratio was found in vitro and in vivo models of cancer to have synergistic anti-cancer activity and preservation and delivery of this ratio is important because other ratios of these two drugs have been found to be antagonistic or only additive. Both floxuridine and irinotecan HCl are active chemotherapeutic agents, each approved for clinical use in the United States and Canada for colorectal cancer. Current practice routinely administers 5- fluorouracil with irinotecan in combination regimens in first or second line treatment without the means of preserving the synergistic ratio.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.0

    Disease response was assessed using RECIST 1.0. Measurable disease and target lesions were determined prior to study entry. Changes in the largest diameter (unidimensional measurement) of the sum of the target tumor lesions were used in the RECIST criteria. Best response on study was classified as follows. Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all clinical and radiological evidence of tumor. Partial Response (PR) at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of the longest diameters. Stable Disease (SD), steady state of disease. Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR or sufficient increase to qualify for PD. Progressive Disease (PD) at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of measured lesions taking as references the smallest sum of longest diameters recorded since the treatment started. Appearance of new lesions also constituted progressive disease.

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 48 months

  2. Progression-free Survival (PFS) Per RECIST Version 1.0

    Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from the first dose to the documentation of progressive disease (PD), death, or lost to follow-up at last assessment visit.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Duration of Response (DoR) Per RECIST Version 1.0

    The duration of overall response was measured from the time that measurement criteria were met for CR or PR (whichever status was recorded first) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease was objectively documented (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started). The duration of overall complete response was measured from the time measurement criteria were first met for complete response until the first date that recurrent disease was objectively documented.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CPX-1 (Irinotecan HCl:Floxuridine) Liposome Injection in people with Colorectal Neoplasms, run by Jazz Pharmaceuticals at 13 sites in 2 countries.

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 21 inclusion and 12 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 2 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States, Canada. 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 2 Jul 2021). 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?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.0 (time frame: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 48 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 2 Jul 2021.
