About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Study of Comparing S-1/Leucovorin With sLV5FU2 as the First-line Treatment for Elderly Patients With Colorectal Cancer

This phase II trial on the assumption that S-1 combined with Leucovorin may have better efficacy and safety than simplified 5-FU/LV infusion therapy in elderly patients with advanced colorectal cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized phase Ⅱ study, in which S-1 is used in combination with leucovorin in elderly patients with advanced colorectal cancer as first-line treatment,comparing with sLV5FU2 therapy. The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of S-1/LV in elderly patients in the first-line setting. The other secondary endpoints are progression free survival,overall survival, and quality of life are also evaluated.

Being tested
S-1, Leucovorin, leucovorin, 5-fluorouracil
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • S-1, LeucovorinDrug

    Also called chemotherapy

    S-1 :

    The initial dosage of S-1 is determined by the body surface area:

    Surface area: 1.25-1.5 m2 : 50mg twice per day;upper than 1.5 m2 : 60mg twice per day

    Leucovorin:

    25mg twice per day po.

    The treatment is given for one week,and no chemotherapy is given for the following one week.

  • leucovorin, 5-fluorouracilDrug

    Also called chemotherapy

    leucovorin: 400mg/m2 intravenous infusion d1;

    5-fluorouracil: 400mg/m2 intravenous push,d1; 2400mg/m2 continuous intravenous infusion for 46 hours

    repeat every 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing S-1, Leucovorin and leucovorin, 5-fluorouracil in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Sep 2010. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jin Li, MD,PhD (64175590 ext. 5100), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

response rate (time frame: six 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 Sep 2010.
