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
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologic/cytologic diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma (transitional cell carcinoma either pure or mixed histology)
  • All patients must have received four - six cycles of standard first line chemotherapy (protocol details suggested combinations) for treatment of locally recurrent or metastatic disease AND must have achieved stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), or complete response (CR) to this chemotherapy.
  • Type of response, number of cycles and specific regimen given must be carefully recorded and submitted at time of registration.
  • Reports from pre and post treatment imaging will be required at time of registration to document response.
  • Patients must be registered within 1 month (or the next business day if falls on a weekend or holiday) of scans demonstrating stable disease or better and no more than 42 days after receiving the last standard chemotherapy dose. For example, if patients are receiving treatment on days 1 and 8 of each cycle, day 8 of the last cycle would be considered the last standard chemotherapy dose.
  • Patients may have received previous adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy.
  • No prior antiangiogenic therapy for this stage of the disease.

Who cannot join

  • Major surgery within 4 weeks of starting the study treatment.
  • NCI CTCAE grade 3 hemorrhage or higher within 4 weeks of starting the study treatment.
  • History of or known spinal cord compression, or carcinomatous meningitis, or evidence of symptomatic brain or leptomeningeal disease on screening CT or MRI scan. However treated, stable and asymptomatic brain metastases are allowed.
  • Known HIV - positive patients may not participate. This is to avoid additional complications that immune suppression and HIV infection may cause due to the intense nature of the chemotherapy in this trial.
  • Any of the following within 6 months prior to study administration: myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, symptomatic congestive heart failure (CHF), cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack, or pulmonary embolism.
  • Patients with history of or who are suspected to have CHF can be included as long as they are asymptomatic and have an ejection fraction that is equal to or above the institutional lower limit of normal by baseline MUGA(obtained within one month of registration or the next business day if falls on a weekend or holiday).
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE Grade > 2.
  • Unresolved bacterial infection.
  • Uncontrolled hypertension.
  • Pre-existing thyroid abnormality that can not be controlled medically.
  • Concurrent treatment on another clinical trial.
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding

About this study

Official title: Randomized Blinded Phase II Trial of Maintenance SUO11248 Versus Placebo Post Chemotherapy for Patients With Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma

This study is a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study evaluating the drug, SUO11248 (SUTENT), for maintenance therapy in advanced urothelial cancer.

Conditions
Bladder Cancer
Being tested
SUTENT, Placebo
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • SUTENTDrug

    Also called SU011248

    50 mg/PO once daily for four consecutive weeks with a two week rest period. Study participants who show evidence of disease progression (or are considered for removal from study for any other reason) will be unblinded. Participants receiving SU011248 will be removed from the study. Participants receiving placebo will be given the opportunity to "crossover" and receive SU011248.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants That Experience Progression by 6 Months for Participants Receiving Sunitinib and Participants Receiving Placebo

    The primary endpoint of this unblinded, randomized trial is to compare the 6-month progression rate in patients randomized to maintenance SU011248 as compared with placebo following primary chemotherapy.

    Progression is defined as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    Measured: 6 Months Post Treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SUTENT in people with Bladder Cancer, run by University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center at 9 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 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Nov 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 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. 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 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 13 Nov 2014). 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?

Percentage of Participants That Experience Progression by 6 Months for Participants Receiving Sunitinib and Participants Receiving Placebo (time frame: 6 Months Post Treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00393796, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 Nov 2014.
