About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Trial of Temozolomide (TMZ) and Bevacizumab or ABI-007 (ABX)/Carboplatin (CBDCA) and Bevacizumab in Patients With Unresectable Stage IV Malignant Melanoma

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether bevacizumab is more effective when given together with temozolomide or paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation and carboplatin in killing malignant melanoma cells.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving temozolomide together with bevacizumab and to see how well it works compared with giving bevacizumab together with paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation and carboplatin in treating patients with stage IV malignant melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery.

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To assess the anti-tumor activity, in terms of the percentage of patients who are treated with these regimens and who are progression-free at 6 months.
  • To assess the safety profile of each treatment regimen.

Secondary

  • To estimate the response rate in patients treated with these regimens.
  • To estimate the distribution of progression-free survival time and overall survival time of patients treated with these regimens.

Tertiary

  • To examine the impact of therapy on angiogenesis and immune homeostasis.

OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to ECOG performance status (0 vs 1) and location of metastatic disease (M1a [skin or subcutaneous tissue or lymph node only] vs M1b [lung] vs M1c [other visceral sites]) and randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive oral temozolomide on days 1-5 and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15. (closed to accrual 8/21/09)
  • Arm II: Patients receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15, and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on day 1.

In both arms, treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients undergo blood sample collection periodically for VEGF plasma levels and analysis of changes in immune homeostasis.

Beginning at study entry, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for up to 3 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free Survival at 6 Months

    The primary endpoint is the 6 month post registration Progression-free survival (PFS) rate. Progression-free survival time is defined as the time from registration to documentation of disease progression using the RECIST criteria. Patients who died without documentation of disease progression will be considered to have progressed at death unless there is sufficient documented evidence to conclude no progression occurred prior to death. All patients, who meet the eligibility criteria, sign a consent form, and start treatment will be included in the evaluation of the 6 month PFS rate.

    Measured: at 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Tumor Response Rate, Calculated as a Percentage Along With it's 95% Confidence Interval

    A confirmed tumor response is defined to be a Complete Response or Partial Response noted

    > as the objective status on 2 consecutive evaluations at least 8

    > weeks apart. The proportion of tumor responses will be

    > estimated by the number of confirmed tumor responses divided

    > by the total number of evaluable patients.

    > Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions

    > Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD.

    > Progression (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    > Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to Qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to Qualify for PD taking as reference the smallest sum LD. responses will be calculated assuming that the number of

    > confirmed tumor responses follows a binomial distribution.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  2. Overall Survival

    Overall survival time is defined as the time from registration to death due to any cause. The distribution of survival time will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bevacizumab, carboplatin and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation in people with Melanoma (Skin), run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology at 259 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?

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 1 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 259 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 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 1 May 2018). 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?

Progression-free Survival at 6 Months (time frame: at 6 months). 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 NCT00626405, 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 1 May 2018.
