About this study

Official title: A SINGLE-ARM, MULTICENTER, PHASE II STUDY OF PANITUMUMAB IN COMBINATION WITH CAPECITABINE / OXALIPLATIN IN FIRST-LINE, WILD-TYPE K-RAS METASTATIC COLORECTAL CANCER PATIENTS.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether panitumumab in combination with capecitabine/oxaliplatin are effective as first-line treatment in wild-type k-ras, metastatic colorectal cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-arm trial in which previously untreated, wild-type k-ras metastatic colorectal cancer patients will receive therapy with the combination of panitumumab with capecitabine and oxaliplatin. During the treatment period of 6 cycles, subjects with evidence of complete response, partial response or stable disease will continue to receive the combination of chemotherapy with panitumumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent. Those patients with disease stabilization who are not appropriate for chemotherapy may continue with panitumumab alone. Patients with disease progression will be discontinued from chemotherapy and panitumumab and will be followed every 3 months after the last drug administration until death. Tumor response will be assessed according to the RECIST criteria (investigator's read of scans), every 6 weeks through week 18 and every 3 months thereafter, until disease progression. Disease progression will also be evaluated radiographically at the time of clinical suspicion of progression.

What participants receive

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

  • panitumumabDrug

    Panitumumab will be administered by IV infusion on day 1 of each 3-week cycle prior to the administration of chemotherapy. The starting panitumumab dose is 9 mg/kg. Subjects with evidence of complete response, partial response or stable disease will continue to receive the combination of chemotherapy with panitumumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response

    Response will be evaluated using the RECIST criteria. Response rates will be presented as counts and proportions along with 95% exact confidence intervals.

    An Objective Response is defined as either a Complete Response or a Partial Response. Analysis will be performed in the intent-to-treat population, i.e. all eligible patients enrolled in the study.

    Measured: Tumor response will be assessed every 6 weeks through week 18 and every 3 months thereafter, until disease progression.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS will be calculated from the date of enrolment to the date of death or last contact

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Progression-Free Survival(PFS)

    PFS will be calculated from the date of enrolment to the date of disease progression, or death, or last contact. Deaths without a documented progression will be treated as events at the time of death for the PFS analysis.

    Time to event distributions will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Tumor response will be assessed every 6 weeks through week 18 and every 3 months thereafter, until disease progression.

  3. Adverse Events (AE)of all participants will be recorded and assessed upon signature of the informed consent form, until 30 days after the last administration of study treatment.

    Adverse Events will be graded according to the NCI CTCAE v3.0 criteria and will be reported in a frequency table according to the highest severity grade observed per patient

    Measured: 18 months

  4. Economic evaluation

    The purpose of economic evaluation will be to estimate the total treatment cost of therapy and its componenents from perspective of the health care system and payers. Thus, all resources consumed will be valued to get an idea of the financial implications of therapy.

    Measured: 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing panitumumab in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Hellenic Cooperative Oncology Group at 12 sites in Greece.

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 15 inclusion and 16 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Greece. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Objective Response (time frame: Tumor response will be assessed every 6 weeks through week 18 and every 3 months thereafter, until disease progression.). 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 NCT01215539, 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 18 Mar 2015.
