Trial summary

Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is the standard regimen for advanced urothelial carcinoma. But cisplatin-unfit patients account for up to 30-40% of patients in clinical practice. Recently reported phase II/III trial of EORTC 30986 comparing gemcitabine/carboplatin (GCb) with MCAVI (Methotrexate, Carboplatin, Vinblastine)… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Gemcitabine-Carboplatin Versus Gemcitabine-Oxaliplatin in Cisplatin Un-fit Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma: Randomized Phase II Study

Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is the standard regimen for advanced urothelial carcinoma.

But cisplatin-unfit patients account for up to 30-40% of patients in clinical practice.

Recently reported phase II/III trial of EORTC 30986 comparing gemcitabine/carboplatin (GCb) with MCAVI (Methotrexate, Carboplatin, Vinblastine) suggested that GCb be the preferred regimen over MCAVI based on the response rates, adverse events, and severe acute toxicities.

But the grade 3 or worse toxicities associated with GCb are not infrequent and need more effective and more tolerable regimens.

GemOx has been reported to be effective and have very favorable toxicity profiles.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing GCb and GemOx in people with Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma, run by Asan Medical Center at 5 sites in South Korea.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jae-Lyun Lee, MD, PhD (82 2 3010 5977, jaelyun@amc.seoul.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response rate (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 NCT01487915, 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 25 Sep 2014.
