  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female patients aged 18 years or more, with histologically or cytologically-confirmed and radiologically-measurable metastatic colorectal cancer.
  • One prior chemotherapy regimen for mCRC consisting of first-line fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan based chemotherapy. Subjects must have disease progression (as assessed by the investigator) and must be no candidates for primary metastasectomy.

Who cannot join

  • Central nervous system metastases, or significant cardiovascular disease.
  • Prior anti-EGFR antibody therapy (e.g. cetuximab) or treatment with small molecule EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.g. erlotinib).

About this study

Official title: An Open-label Randomized Phase II Study of Panitumumab Plus Oral Capecitabine and Infusional Oxaliplatin (XELOX) or XELOX Alone for Second-line Treatment of Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (VOXEL-Study)

The purpose of this interventional study is to investigate whether there is evidence that panitumumab in combination with XELOX (capecitabine plus oxaliplatin) chemotherapy will safely increase progression-free survival, above that of XELOX alone in subjects with KRAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer who have not responded to or progressed after first line therapy with irinotecan and a fluoropyrimidine.

Further Objectives Exploratory objectives may include investigation of potential correlations between the treatment regimen and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression, detection of the functional genetic polymorphisms of the EGFR gene, EGFR gene amplification (FISH), EGFR downstream protein and gene expression parameters, proteomics and epigenetics.

Read the detailed description

Subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer with KRAS-wildtype will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a 2nd line treatment regimen of panitumumab plus oxaliplatin and capecitabine (XELOX) or XELOX alone. Before randomization tumour of all subjects will be analyzed to detect the KRAS mutational status. Subjects will only be randomized into these two arms if the tumour shows KRAS wild-type. Subjects with KRAS mutant colorectal tumours will receive XELOX alone. Subjects will receive treatment cycles every three weeks. Treatment will continue until subjects are diagnosed with disease progression or intolerable toxicity, at which time the subjects will be withdrawn from the treatment phase. If a subject withdraws from chemotherapy due to toxicity the subjects will be allowed to continue with panitumumab monotherapy with or without one of the chemotherapy components until disease progression. After withdrawing panitumumab and XELOX treatment, all subjects will end the treatment phase and will enter a follow-up phase until 6 months after the last patient stopped treatment (with a safety follow-up visit after 56 days ± 3 days and long term follow-up visits every 12 weeks). During the treatment phase subjects will be evaluated for tumour response every 9 weeks (± one week) through to week 45, and every 12 weeks (± two weeks) thereafter, until disease progression. Subjects with symptoms suggestive of disease progression should be evaluated for tumour response at the time symptoms occur.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Oxaliplatin, Capecitabine, PanitumumabDrug

    Panitumumab at a dose of 9 mg/kg BW every three weeks will be administered on day 1 of each cycle just prior to administration of chemotherapy.

    The XELOX regimen is defined as a 2 hour infusion of oxaliplatin 130 mg/m² on day 1 followed by capecitabine 1000 mg/m² bid per os. Capecitabine administration will commence on the evening of day 1 and complete after the morning dose on day 15.

  • Oxaliplatin, CapecitabineDrug

    The XELOX regimen is defined as a 2 hour infusion of oxaliplatin 130 mg/m² on day 1 followed by capecitabine 1000 mg/m² bid per os. Capecitabine administration will commence on the evening of day 1 and complete after the morning dose on day 15.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Oxaliplatin, Capecitabine, Panitumumab and Oxaliplatin, Capecitabine in people with Colorectal Neoplasms, run by AIO-Studien-gGmbH at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 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 4 Mar 2013. 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 Germany. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Recruitment rate to low; changed environment made protocol in its current state obsolete). 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?

Progression-free survival rate at 6 months for subjects with KRAS wild-type tumours (time frame: 6 months). 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 4 Mar 2013.
