About this study

Official title: Genotype-drive Phase II Study of Novel Irinotecan-Cisplatin Combination as First-line Therapy for Advanced Gastric Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of first-line chemotherapy with cisplatin and irinotecan in advanced gastric cancer, and try to find out the optimal dosage of combination chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

Open label single arm phase II study of cisplatin and irinotecan in patients with advanced gastric carcinoma not previously treated with palliative chemotherapy. 40 Patients will be enrolled in this local trial. The primary objective of this study is to determine the response rate of the treatment.Schedule for this study is as follows: 8 cycles/14 days of irinotecan 125 mg/m2 on Day 1 and cisplatin 50 mg/m2 on Day2. This study will also include genotype investigations of UGT1A1 and ERCC1 expression in order to assess determinants of efficacy and toxicity of the treatment with cisplatin and irinotecan in the study population.

What participants receive

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

  • irinotecan and cisplatinDrug

    Also called CAMPT

    irinotecan 125 mg/m2 will be administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion over half a hour on Days 1; Cisplatin 60 mg/m2 will be administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 2, and to take enough hydration in the day and the next day.

    14 days as a cycle, up to 8 cycles.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall response rate

    The primary objective of this study is to determine the response rate of CPT11 plus cisplatin as first-line therapy in patients with advanced gastric carcinoma.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Time to event efficacy

    The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate:

    The following time to event efficacy measures:

    • Duration of overall response for responding patients
    • Time to documented progressive disease
    • Overall survival
    • The quantitative and qualitative toxicity of irinotecan plus cisplatin.
    • Determinants of efficacy and toxicity of the treatment with irinotecan and cisplatin in the patient population by means of pharmacogenomic investigations: Quantitative analysis of UGT1A1 and ERCC1

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing irinotecan and cisplatin in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences 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 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2014. 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?

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?

Overall response rate (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT01444521, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 May 2014.
