About this study

Official title: Phase I / Randomized Phase II Study of Second Line Therapy With Irinotecan and Cetuximab With or Without RAD001, an Oral mTOR Inhibitor for Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: Hoosier Oncology Group GI05-102

The addition of RAD001, an mTOR inhibitor, to irinotecan and anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab may increase efficacy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who progressed on prior chemotherapy. This approach is biologically directed to overall target the cancer cell at multiple levels, and potentially preventing chemotherapy and EGFR-therapy resistance.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the MTD of RAD001 in combination with irinotecan and cetuximab as second line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer

    Measured: Phase I

  2. To evaluate the objective response (CR or PR) rates of patients treated with irinotecan and cetuximab with or without RAD001 in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer

    Measured: Phase II

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile for RAD001 after one cycle of therapy, on cycle 2 day 1

    Measured: Phase I

  2. To evaluate the time to progression, duration of objective response (CR or PR) and overall survival of patients treated with irinotecan and cetuximab with or without RAD001

    Measured: Phase II

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Irinotecan, Cetuximab and RAD001 in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Hoosier Cancer Research Network at 14 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 17 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 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 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 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?

To determine the MTD of RAD001 in combination with irinotecan and cetuximab as second line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (time frame: Phase I). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00522665, 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 15 May 2015.
