About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Open-label Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Objective Response Rate of Bevacizumab in Combination With Modified FOLFOX-6 Followed by One Year of Maintenance With Bevacizumab Alone in Patients With Initially Not or Borderline Resectable Colorectal Liver Metastases (The CLMO-001 Trial)

The multicenter, open-label, single-arm, non-randomized, two-stage Simon's design, phase II study (The CLMO-001 Trial) will evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with mFOLFOX-6 (Levofolinic acid, 5-Fluorouracil [5-FU] and oxaliplatin) in participants with colorectal cancer and liver metastases. Participants will receive combination therapy of bevacizumab 5 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) intravenous (IV) dose and mFOLFOX-6 every 2 weeks during Cycles 1-5 and Cycles 7-12. Participants will receive mFOLFOX-6 alone (without bevacizumab) on Cycle 6. In between Cycle 6 and 7, participants will undergo liver surgery if operable. Thereafter participants will receive bevacizumab (5 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks) alone for 52 weeks (26 cycles) after the end of the post-operative phase (maintenance therapy). At the end of the preoperative treatment phase (Cycles 1-6), participants showing different alternative conditions admitted by the protocol will undergo different management (alternative study designs 1 to 3).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Bevacizumab + mFOLFOX-6ExperimentalParticipants will receive combination therapy of bevacizumab 5 mg/kg IV dose and mFOLFOX-6 (Levofolinic acid, 5-FU and oxaliplatin) on Day 1 of every 2 weeks' cycle for 5 cycles (Cycle 1-5), followed by 1 cycle (Cycle 6) of mFOLFOX6 alone (preoperative treatment phase). After 3 weeks of preoperative treatment phase, participants satisfying the surgical criteria for hepatic resectability will undergo a liver metastasectomy. Thereafter participants will receive combination therapy of mFOLFOX-6 + bevacizumab for another 6 cycles (Cycle 7-12); (post-operative treatment phase) followed by bevacizumab alone for 52 weeks (26 cycles) (maintenance therapy).

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) in the Intent-to-treat (ITT) Analysis Set

    ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with shrinkage (partial response [PR]) or disappearance of cancer (complete response [CR]). Tumor response was evaluated according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1). The same method of tumor measurement and assessment had to be used to characterize each lesion throughout the study. Tumor assessment consisted of computerized tomography (CT) scan (abdomen + pelvis + chest) or contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) (abdomen + pelvis) + non CE-CT (chest) according to the choice of the center. CR, Disappearance of all target lesions; PR, >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: Up to 11 cycles of treatment (up to Week 22)

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) in the Per-protocol Analysis Set (PPAS)

    ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with shrinkage (PR) or disappearance of cancer (CR). Tumor response was evaluated according to the RECIST v1.1. The same method of tumor measurement and assessment had to be used to characterize each lesion throughout the study. Tumor assessment consisted of CT scan (abdomen + pelvis + chest) or CE-MRI (abdomen + pelvis) + non CE-CT (chest) according to the choice of the center. CR, Disappearance of all target lesions; PR, >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; OR = CR + PR.

    Measured: Up to 11 cycles of treatment (up to Week 22)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving No Residual Tumor (R0)/Surgical Margin With Microscopic Residual Tumor (R1) Liver Resection

    The percentage of participants achieving R0/R1 liver resection was defined as the percentage of participants achieving R0 surgery (no residual tumor) plus percentage of participants achieving R1 surgery (surgical margin with microscopic residual tumor).

    Measured: End of study up to approximately 3 years

  2. Disease-free Interval (DFI)

    DFI was defined as the time from the date of R0/R1 surgery to the date of disease relapse or death due to any cause. Participants who did not progress were considered censored at the date of the last assessment performed. For participants receiving two-stage resection, the date of R0/R1 surgery was the date of the second surgery. Participants, who did not receive surgery and participants without R0/R1 surgery were censored at Day 1. DFI was calculated as follows: DFI (months) = ([Date of R0/R1 surgery - Date of 1st relapse/Death] + 1)/30

    Measured: End of study up to approximately 3 years

  3. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was defined as the time from the date of first study drug administration to the date of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever came first. Progression was defined according to RECIST, v1.1 as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions with an absolute increase of at least 5 mm or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Participants, who did not progress were censored at the date of the last assessment performed. Participants who withdrew from the study without documented progression and for whom an electronic case report form (eCRF) existed as evidence that evaluations had been made, were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment when the participant was known to be progression-free. Participants without post-baseline tumor assessments, but known to be alive were censored at the time of first study drug administration. PFS was calculated: PFS (months) = ([Date of Event - Date of first study drug administration] + 1)/30.

    Measured: End of study up to approximately 3 years

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from the date of first study drug administration to the date of death due to any cause. Participants who were alive at the time of the analysis were censored at the last date the participant was known to be alive. OS was calculated as follows: OS (months) = ([Date of Death - first study drug administration] + 1)/30

    Measured: End of study up to approximately 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), Bevacizumab and Levofolinic acid in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 11 sites in Italy.

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 12 inclusion and 19 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 14 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Italy. 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 7 Sep 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?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) in the Intent-to-treat (ITT) Analysis Set (time frame: Up to 11 cycles of treatment (up to Week 22)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Jun 2017.
