About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Study of Panitumumab Plus Irinotecan Followed by Panitumumab Plus AMG 479 in Subjects With Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma Expressing Wild Type KRAS and Refractory to Oxaliplatin-or Irinotecan- and Oxaliplatin-containing Regimens to Evaluate Mechanisms of Acquired Resistance to Panitumumab

This study is designed to evaluate the mechanism(s) of resistance to the anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody panitumumab given in combination with irinotecan in metastatic colorectal carcinoma (mCRC) patients with wild-type Kirsten rat sarcoma-2 virus oncogene (KRAS) tumor status at the time of initial diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

In Part 1, all participants will undergo a baseline tumor biopsy and will receive panitumumab with irinotecan. Participants who respond or have stable disease will continue to receive treatment until radiographically-confirmed disease progression. These participants will then undergo a second tumor biopsy and blood sampling and then proceed to Part 2 of the study. Participants with radiographically confirmed disease progression at the time of the first tumor measurement will undergo blood sampling and proceed directly to Part 2.

In Part 2, participants will receive panitumumab with ganitumab. In both parts of the study, panitumumab and irinotecan (Part 1) and panitumumab and ganitumab (Part 2) will be administered every 2 weeks until disease progression, intolerability, withdrawal of consent, death, or unless otherwise indicated by the study team.

What is being measured

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

  1. PFS Hazard Ratio

    KRAS mutation status changed from wild-type at baseline to mutant at time of second biopsy in part 1, as measured by the PFS hazard ratio. Hazard ratio is presented as wild-type: mutant

    Measured: From baseline up to 152 weeks (from baseline to the time of the second biopsy prior to entering part 2) .

  2. Objective Response Rate in Part 2

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: From time of randomization until confirmed complete response or partial response (part 2: up to 119 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Objective Response Rate for Part 1

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Objective Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: from first dose of investigational product up to 152 weeks

  2. Progression-Free Survival for Part 1

    Time from the first dose of investigational product to the first date of disease progression per the modified RECIST v1.0 or death by any cause, initiating a new line of antitumor therapy, or receiving study treatment in Part 2, whichever is earlier in Part 1. Disease progression is a >= 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of the target lesions as compared to the smallest sum while on study per RECIST v1.0

    Measured: from first dose of investigational product up to 152 weeks

  3. Progression-Free Survival for Part 2

    Time from the start of Part 2 to the first date of disease progression per the modified RECIST v1.0 or death by any cause, initiating a new line of antitumor therapy, or receiving study treatment in Part 2, whichever is earlier. Disease progression is a >= 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of the target lesions as compared to the smallest sum while on study per RECIST v1.0.

    Measured: 119 weeks from the start of part 2, up to a maximum duration of 152 week

  4. Overall Survival for Part 1

    Time from the first dose of investigational product to death from any cause in Part 1.

    Measured: from first dose of investigational product up to 152 weeks

  5. Overall Survival for Part 2

    Time from the start of Part 2 to death from any cause.

    Measured: from the start of Part 2 up to 119 weeks

  6. Time to Response for Part 1

    Time from the first dose of investigational product to the date of first confirmed objective response in Part 1. An objective response is defined as a confirmed complete response or partial response per modified RECIST v1.0 criteria during the treatment period. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Objective Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: from first dose of investigational product up to 152 weeks

  7. Duration of Response for Part 1

    Time from first confirmed objective response to disease progression per modified RECIST v1.0 in Part 1. An objective response is defined as a confirmed complete response or partial response per modified RECIST v1.0 criteria during the treatment period. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Objective Response (OR) = CR + PR; Disease progression is a >= 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of the target lesions as compared to the smallest sum while on study.

    Measured: from first dose of investigational product up to 152 weeks

  8. Part 2 Time to Response and Duration of Response

    Time to response was defined as the time from study day 1 to the first observation of an objective response (confirmed complete response or partial response using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST]). Duration of response was the time from the first observation of an objective response to the subsequent time of disease progression (per modified RECIST or clinical progression, whichever came first) or death due to any cause. Objective response = a tumor response assessment of either complete response or partial response per modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST]. Per RECIST: a complete response is the disappearance of all target lesions; a partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: From time of randomization until confirmed complete response or partial response (part 2: up to 119 weeks)

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 8 Feb 2016). 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?

PFS Hazard Ratio (time frame: From baseline up to 152 weeks (from baseline to the time of the second biopsy prior to entering part 2) .). 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 NCT00891930, which also lists 1 linked publication.
