About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Clinical Trial Investigating Irinotecan Plus Cetuximab With or Without Anti-Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Receptor Monoclonal Antibody (IMC-A12) for the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic K-Ras Wild Type Carcinoma of the Colon or Rectum That Has Progressed on Oxaliplatin and Bevacizumab Given as First-Line Therapy

The purpose of this study is to determine the value of adding IMC-A12 to irinotecan and cetuximab in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC).

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the value of adding IMC-A12 to irinotecan + cetuximab in improving progression-free survival (PFS) at 18 weeks from the date of randomization for participants with metastatic Kirsten Rat Sarcoma (K-RAS) wild-type CRC that has progressed on an oxaliplatin/bevacizumab-containing regimen.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cetuximab, Irinotecan and IMC-A12 (cixutumumab) in people with Colon Cancer and Rectal Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 3 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 12 inclusion and 21 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 2 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 Jun 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 (PFS) Rate at 18 Weeks (time frame: Approximately 18 Weeks). 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 2 Jul 2018.
