About this study

Official title: Open-label Phase 2 Study of Single-agent Erlotinib for Patients With Pediatric Ependymoma Previously Treated With Oral Etoposide in Protocol OSI-774-205

Participants that were assigned to the oral etoposide treatment arm in protocol OSI-774-205 and either progressed while on study or discontinued due to unacceptable toxicity related to etoposide were allowed to participate in this study to assess the safety profile of single-agent erlotinib in participants with recurrent or refractory pediatric ependymoma.

Read the detailed description

The protocol-specified futility criteria were met at the second interim analysis dated 15 Aug 2012 for OSI-774-205. Per the Data Monitoring Committee's recommendation and FDA's agreement, the enrollment of patients in that study and Study OSI-774-206 was permanently closed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety Assessed Through Evaluation of Physical Examinations, Vital Signs, Clinical Laboratory Tests, and Adverse Events (AEs)

    Safety is monitored through AEs, which includes abnormal or clinically significant vital sign assessments, laboratory test, physical examination findings associated with signs and/or symptoms requiring withdrawal, dose modification or medical intervention. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an adverse event observed after starting administration of the study drug. An AE was considered serious (SAE) if it resulted in death, a life-threatening situation, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a patient who received study drug or other important medical events.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug to 30 days after last dose of study drug (The mean treatment duration was 170.5 days)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Best Overall Response

    Best overall response was derived from an integrated clinical assessment by the study investigator as per institutional standards. This included radiographic assessments deemed appropriate by the investigator in the normal care of the patient. A determination of best overall response at the end of study treatment (complete response, partial response, minor response or stable disease) was only made if (1) any disease-related neurologic symptoms were stable or improving over the interval of the radiographic assessment and (2) corticosteroid dosing for the control of tumor-related signs/symptoms was stable or decreasing.If the investigator deems that a radiographic assessment is not needed, then evidence of clinical improvement may be used to determine best response provided that corticosteroid dosing for tumor-related signs/symptoms is stable or decreasing.

    Measured: End of treatment (The mean treatment duration was 170.5 days.)

  2. Median Treatment Duration

    Measured: From first dose of study drug up to last dose of study drug (The mean treatment duration was 170.5 days)

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted25 Nov 2010 (estimated)
  2. Study start23 May 2011
  3. Primary completion13 Sep 2012
  4. Study completion13 Sep 2012

Why it stopped: In a pre-planned interim analysis, OSI-774-205 met futility for efficacy with no safety concerns. As a result, the companion trial, OSI-774-206 has been stopped

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Erlotinib in people with Ependymoma, run by OSI Pharmaceuticals at 21 sites in 3 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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 6 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in United States, United Kingdom, Canada. 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 11 Jan 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?

Safety Assessed Through Evaluation of Physical Examinations, Vital Signs, Clinical Laboratory Tests, and Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: From first dose of study drug to 30 days after last dose of study drug (The mean treatment duration was 170.5 days)). 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 6 Dec 2024.
