  • Active disseminated intravascular coagulation
  • Other serious underlying medical conditions which could impair the ability of the patient to participate in the study;
  • Use of antidepressant/antiepileptic medication (for the treatment of PSN), unless commenced before informed consent form signed. The addition of these medications (for the treatment of PSN) once the patient has consented is not allowed
  • Concurrent treatment with any other experimental drugs

About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Phase III Study to Assess the Efficacy of Xaliproden in Patients With Oxaliplatin-induced Peripheral Sensory Neuropathy (PSN) Following Adjuvant Chemotherapy for Colon Cancer

Primary objective:

To assess the effect of xaliproden hydrochloride (xaliproden) 1 mg per oral daily on the rate of complete resolution of peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN) at 6 months, following randomization, after the completion of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer.

Secondary objective:

  • To assess the effect of xaliproden on patient-reported outcomes using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group-Neurotoxicity scale (FACT/GOG NTX-12 subscale).
  • To assess the effect of xaliproden on the rate of at least partial recovery of grade > 2 PSN at 6 months
  • To assess the effects of xaliproden on the time to complete recovery from PSN
  • To evaluate the safety profile of xaliproden
Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Neurological sensory assessment using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (NCI-CTCAE, Version 3.0)

    Measured: inclusion, 3 and 6 months and at the 9 and 12 moth follow-up visits

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. FACT/GOG NTX-12 subscale

    Measured: AT inclusion and subsequently monthly until month 12

  2. Hematological and biochemical testing

    Measured: At inclusion, 3 & 6 months

  3. AE graded with NCI-CTCAE (Version 3.0) and coded using Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA, version 9.1)

    Measured: During the whole study period (including follow-up)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Xaliproden in people with Colorectal Neoplasms, run by Sanofi at 8 sites in 8 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 4 inclusion and 14 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 5 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States, Canada, France, Germany, Greece and 3 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 was stopped early (reason given: development of product discontinued). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Neurological sensory assessment using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (NCI-CTCAE, Version 3.0) (time frame: inclusion, 3 and 6 months and at the 9 and 12 moth follow-up visits). 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 5 May 2016.
