About this study

Official title: Phase I Repeat-Dose Study of Resveratrol in Colorectal Cancer Patients: Tolerability, Target Tissue Levels and Pharmacodynamics

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of resveratrol in treating patients with colorectal cancer that can be removed by surgery. Resveratrol may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the relationship between oral dose of resveratrol and the colon mucosal levels of resveratrol and its metabolites in patients with resectable colorectal cancer.

II. Determine the relationship between colon mucosal levels of resveratrol and its metabolites and plasma concentrations of resveratrol and its metabolites in these patients.

III. Determine cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in colorectal cancer tissue before and after treatment in these patients.

IV. Determine M_1G concentration in colonic cancer tissue and in circulating white blood cells (WBC) before and after treatment.

  1. Correlate M_1G concentration in colorectal cancer tissue with M_1G concentration in circulating WBC.

VI. Assess the Ki67 labeling index in normal and malignant tissues in at least 10 fields per section.

VII. Correlate COX-2 expression in colorectal cancer tissue with COX-2 expression in circulating WBCs.

VIII. Assess the toxicity profile of this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a two-stage nonrandomized, open-label study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 dose levels in stage 2.

STAGE I: Patients undergo an colorectal endoscopy. Patients whose biopsies confirm colorectal adenocarcinoma histology and require surgical resection continue on study stage 2.

STAGE II: Patients receive oral resveratrol on days 1-8. Patients undergo colorectomy on day 9. A tumor biopsy is performed during endoscopy and colorectomy for research purposes.

Two biomarkers of the potential activity of resveratrol are measured in nonmalignant and malignant colorectal tissue biopsy samples: levels of M_1G adducts by immunoslot blot analysis and levels of cyclooxygenase-2 protein/Ki67 by immunohistochemistry. Blood samples are collected at baseline and during colorectomy for analysis of resveratrol and its metabolites and other pharmacokinetic studies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing resveratrol, pharmacological study and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Adenocarcinoma of the Colon and Adenocarcinoma of the Rectum, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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 28 inclusion and 0 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 15 Sep 2014. 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 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 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?

Pharmacodynamics of resveratrol (time frame: Up to 8 days). 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 15 Sep 2014.
