About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of Reovirus Serotype 3 - Dearing Strain (REOLYSIN®) (NSC 729968) in Patients With Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal and Fallopian Tube Carcinoma

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of viral therapy in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer that did not respond to platinum chemotherapy (phase II closed as of 1/7/2011). Viral therapy may be able to kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of intravenous (IV) and intraperitoneal (IP) administration of wild-type reovirus (REOLYSIN®).

II. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of IP REOLYSIN® when used with a fixed dose of IV REOLYSIN®.

III. Determine the objective response rate (complete response and partial response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] criteria) of treatment with IV and IP REOLYSIN® in patients with recurrent, platinum-refractory ovarian epithelial, peritoneal, or fallopian tube carcinoma. (Phase II) (phase II closed as of 1/7/2011).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To identify viral replication in tumor following IV reovirus. II. To identify anti-reovirus antibodies in patients being treated with IV and IP REOLYSIN® therapy.

III. To identify viral replication in the abdominal washings of patients undergoing IV and IP REOLYSIN® therapy.

IV. To correlate response to therapy with Ras oncogene status. V. To evaluate double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase activity in tumors. VI. To correlate molecular predictors of response to REOLYSIN® therapy.

OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of intraperitoneal (IP) wild-type reovirus when administered with fixed dose IV wild-type reovirus.

PHASE I: Patients receive wild-type reovirus IV over 60 minutes on days 1-5 in course 1, followed by insertion of an IP access port. Beginning in course 2, patients receive wild-type reovirus IV over 60 minutes on days 1-5 and wild-type reovirus IP over 10 minutes on days 1 and 2*. Treatment with IV and IP wild-type reovirus repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PHASE II: Patients undergo IP access port insertion before beginning treatment. Patients receive wild-type reovirus IV over 60 minutes on days 1-5 and IP (at the maximum tolerated dose determined in phase I) over 10 minutes on days 1 and 2*. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (phase II closed as of 1/7/2011). NOTE: *Patients receive IP wild-type reovirus on days 2 and 3 in course 3.

Prior to each IP wild-type reovirus administration, normal saline is administered through the IP catheter and withdrawn for correlative studies in courses 2 and 3 (phase I) or courses 1 and 2 (phase II). Patients also undergo a CT-guided percutaneous tumor biopsy on day 2 of course 3 (phase I or II). Samples are analyzed by immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, and electron microscopy for the relevant molecular effects of wild-type reovirus on tumor and normal tissue.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for up to 12 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerable dose of intraperitoneal (IP) wild-type reovirus when administered with fixed dose IV wild-type reovirus (phase I)

    Dose-limiting toxicity will be assessed using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v. 4

    Measured: At each dose level, assessed up to 5 dose levels

  2. Objective response (partial response and complete response)

    Response will be evaluated using the new international criteria proposed by RECIST Committee.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks during treatment and assessed up to 12 weeks after completion of treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Association of Ras oncogene and molecular markers with objective response

    Secondary endpoints are generally descriptive

    Measured: During courses 1 and 2, and prior to course 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Laboratory Biomarker Analysis and Wild-type Reovirus in people with Recurrent Fallopian Tube Carcinoma and Recurrent Ovarian Carcinoma, 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 35 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 8 Aug 2016. 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?

Maximum tolerable dose of intraperitoneal (IP) wild-type reovirus when administered with fixed dose IV wild-type reovirus (phase I) (time frame: At each dose level, assessed up to 5 dose levels). 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 8 Aug 2016.
