About this study
Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Crossover Evaluation of the Effect of Atorvastatin on the Pharmacokinetics of Irinotecan in Colorectal Cancer Patients Receiving FOLFIRI
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of atorvastatin on the pharmacokinetic profile of irinotecan and SN-38. To further evaluate the safety of atorvastatin in combination with FOLFIRI. To further evaluate the safety and of irinotecan in combination with atorvastatin.
Read the detailed description
This is a single-center, prospective, randomized, crossover study to address the pharmacokinetic effects of atorvastatin on irinotecan metabolism in patients receiving their first cycle of FOLFIRI (5-fluorouracil + leucovorin + irinotecan).
Each cycle of FOLFIRI is defined as 28 days, with a dose of FOLFIRI administered on day 1 and day 15. Patients will be recruited from the UNC Lineberger Cancer Center, referred by their primary oncologist for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). After obtaining informed consent, the patient will be randomized to either ARM A or ARM B.
Blood samples will be collected on day 1 and 15 of FOLFIRI prior to treatment with irinotecan (baseline), immediately following the end of the irinotecan infusion, and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours following the end of the irinotecan infusion.
ARM A subjects will receive atorvastatin 20 mg orally once daily given for two weeks starting on Day -14 during PERIOD ONE. ARM A will then receive no statin during PERIOD TWO. Patients will receive FOLFIRI infusion on day 1 and day 15. Blood samples will be collected at baseline and periodically through 24 hours.
ARM B subjects will receive no atorvastatin during PERIOD ONE. ARM B subjects will receive atorvastatin 20 mg orally once daily for two weeks during PERIOD TWO (starting on Day 2). Patients will receive FOLFIRI infusion on day 1 and day 15. Blood samples will be collected at baseline and periodically through 24 hours.
DNA extraction and genetic analysis of UGT1A1 polymorphisms will be performed in collaboration with Dr. Federico Innocenti and those patients homozygous for the UGT1A1*28 allele will be excluded due to their altered irinotecan metabolism.
Patients will be followed until Day 1 of Cycle 2 of FOLFIRI. Patients removed from study for unacceptable adverse events will be followed until resolution or stabilization of the event(s).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of irinotecan.
At the end of the screening period, eligible patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive atorvastatin prior to Day 1 of FOLFIRI (ARM A) or atorvastatin prior to Day 15 FOLFIRI (ARM B). Patients in ARM A must start atorvastatin within 28 days of randomization and patients in ARM B should receive FOLFIRI within 28 days of randomization; if not, the Investigator must be notified.
Measured: Blood samples will be collected on day 1 and 15 of FOLFIRI prior to treatment with irinotecan (baseline), immediately following the end of the irinotecan infusion, and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours following the end of the irinotecan infusion.
Secondary outcomes (1)
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of SN-38.
At the end of the screening period, eligible patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive atorvastatin prior to Day 1 of FOLFIRI (ARM A) or atorvastatin prior to Day 15 FOLFIRI (ARM B). Patients in ARM A must start atorvastatin within 28 days of randomization and patients in ARM B should receive FOLFIRI within 28 days of randomization; if not, the Investigator must be notified.
Measured: Blood samples will be collected on day 1 and 15 of FOLFIRI prior to treatment with irinotecan (baseline), immediately following the end of the irinotecan infusion, and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours following the end of the irinotecan infusion.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing FOLFIRI. and Atorvastatin in people with Advanced Adenocarcinoma of the Colon or Rectum, run by UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
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 10 inclusion and 29 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 27 Feb 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 United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
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?
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of irinotecan. (time frame: Blood samples will be collected on day 1 and 15 of FOLFIRI prior to treatment with irinotecan (baseline), immediately following the end of the irinotecan infusion, and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours following the end of the irinotecan infusion.). 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 27 Feb 2014.
