Trial summary

The percentage of patients with defined unresectable metastatic disease who will benefit from a first-line treatment enabling secondary complete metastasectomy is unknown but limited. Definition of optimized treatment algorithms is difficult due to very inhomogeneous patient populations. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Single-arm Phase II Downsizing Study of Irinotecan, Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin (IXO) and Bevacizumab as First-line Treatment to Assess Conversion to Resectability of Liver-only Metastases in Colorectal Cancer Patients With Initially Unresectable Metastases

The percentage of patients with defined unresectable metastatic disease who will benefit from a first-line treatment enabling secondary complete metastasectomy is unknown but limited. Definition of optimized treatment algorithms is difficult due to very inhomogeneous patient populations.

This open label, multicentre Phase II study primarily aims to assess the resection rate achievable in a selected patient population with initially unresectable metastatic disease limited to the liver only in order to evaluate feasibility, safety and efficacy with regards to secondary resection of hepatic lesions in these patients.

The trial aims to enrol only patients meeting defined criteria of unresectability with regards to their hepatic lesions and will exclude patients with extrahepatic lesions in order to examine the most appropriate, highly active treatment regimen for this group of unresectable patients with the highest probability of a successful secondary metastasectomy with curative intent. The trial will be conducted in highly specialized centres with a track record of successful interdisciplinary treatment approaches in the field of metastatic colorectal cancer to allow the precise assessment of the peri-operative safety parameters as well as an evaluation of the surgical treatment approaches.

The IXO regimen selected for this study has shown in a phase I/II study promising efficacy and a favourable safety profile. Bevacizumab has demonstrated a significant survival benefit in combination with chemotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer. Therefore the study will allow evaluation of its potential benefit in combination with the two most active current chemotherapy regimens in the first-line and post-operative treatment setting.

What participants receive

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

  • irinotecan, capecitabine, oxaliplatin (IXO) and bevacizumabDrug

    IXO plus bevacizumab regimen is given every 3 weeks (Q3W), in the following order: Bevacizumab (A): 7.5 mg/kg via IV infusion, day 1 Oxaliplatin (O): 100 mg/m2 via 2-hour IV infusion, day 1 Irinotecan (I): 160 mg/m2 via 1-hour IV infusion, day 1 Capecitabine (X): 950 mg/m2 twice daily PO, days 2 - 15

What is being measured

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

  1. conversion to resectability during downsizing therapy with IXO+A patients with initially unresectable liver-only metastases associated with colorectal cancer

    Measured: after 8 IXO+A cycles

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Recurrence-free survival (RFS)

    Measured: Every 2 cycles

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: Every 2 cycles

  3. Time to response (TTR)

    Measured: Every 2 cycles

  4. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: Every 2 cycles

  5. Pathological complete response (pCR) rate

    Measured: assessed post-operatory

  6. Overall response rate (ORR)

    Measured: Every 2 cycles

  7. Number of participants with Adverse Events as a measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: Every 3 weeks

  8. Surgical safety (frequency of surgical complications)

    Measured: assessed post-operatory

  9. Pathological changes in the non-tumoural liver following therapy with IXO+A

    Measured: assessed post-operatory

  10. R0, R1, R2 resection rate after up to 8 cycles of downsizing therapy with IXO+A

    Measured: assessed post-operatory

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing irinotecan, capecitabine, oxaliplatin (IXO) and bevacizumab in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Ottawa Hospital Research Institute at 4 sites in Canada.

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 7 inclusion and 4 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

conversion to resectability during downsizing therapy with IXO+A patients with initially unresectable liver-only metastases associated with colorectal cancer (time frame: after 8 IXO+A cycles). 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 5 Jun 2013.
