Trial summary

Based on the previous clinical experience in other cancers, and considering the absence of current standard salvage regimens, the single agent docetaxel is selected as the regimen for this phase II study. Main toxicity of docetaxel is myelosuppression. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Salvage Docetaxel in Patients With Advanced Urothelial Cancer Failed to Prior Chemotherapy

Based on the previous clinical experience in other cancers, and considering the absence of current standard salvage regimens, the single agent docetaxel is selected as the regimen for this phase II study. Main toxicity of docetaxel is myelosuppression. The low rate of severe myelosuppression observed in other cancer trials warrants further study in urothelial cancer. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and activity of weekly docetaxel given as salvage therapy for advanced urothelial cancer.

Study scheme

Patients eligible for this study will be offered participation. Screening numbers are endowed to all subjects who sign the informed consent forms. These screening numbers are used as 'Subject Identification Code" along with subject initials. Subjects withdrawn from the study retain their screening number.

Patients will have study drug discontinued at the time of progression and will then remain on study for a 4-week safety follow-up. Those without progression may continue to receive docetaxel as long as this is considered to be in their interest by their physician. After progression, patients will remain on study for the purpose of collecting follow-up and survival information.

VII-3. Study treatment

The study drug doses should be calculated taking the body surface area into consideration. Docetaxel 30 mg/m2 will be administered on days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks. Docetaxel will be diluted in 250 ml 0.9% saline or 5% dextrose to produce a final solution with concentration of 0.3-0.74 mg/ml. It will be administered as an infusion over 60 min on each infusion day. Patients will be premedicated with iv dexamethasone 15 mg, antihistamines and a prophylactic antiemetic treatment prior to docetaxel infusion in order to reduce the incidence and severity of fluid retention as well as the severity of hypersensitivity reactions. Patients experiencing adverse events attributed to irinotecan should have treatment delay as needed and/or may be interrupted or reduced depending on individual tolerability and according to the protocol.

Treatment will be continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicities, or consent withdrawal. After failure of study treatment, further treatment can be administered at the discretion of investigators.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel in people with Bladder Cancer, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site 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 3 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 15 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 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?

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?

response rate (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 15 May 2014.
