About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of OCV-C02 in Patients With Advanced or Relapsed Colorectal Cancer Who Are Refractory or Intolerant to Standard Chemotherapy

To assess the safety and tolerability of OCV-C02 in Patients With Advanced or Relapsed Colorectal Cancer Who Are Refractory or Intolerant to Standard Chemotherapy

Read the detailed description

The incidence of dose limiting toxicity (DLT) will be evaluated in cohorts of six patients by starting OCV-C02 administration at dose level 1 (OCV-103 and OCV-104 at 0.3 mg each), increasing the dose to dose level 2 (at 1 mg each), level 3 (at 3 mg each), and then up to dose level 4 (at 6 mg each). Once-weekly administration will be repeated four times in each treatment cycle, and the incidence of DLT from Day 1 to Day 29 will be evaluated.

At the end of Cycle 1, patients who wish to continue OCV-C02 treatment and have provided their written consent will be permitted to continue participation in the trial using the same dosing schedule for each subsequent cycle as that for Cycle 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT)

    [Definition of DLT]

    Any of the following adverse events (AEs) that occurred by Day 29 of Cycle 1 and for which a causal relationship to OCV-C02 could not be ruled out:

    • Grade 3 or higher non-hematological toxicities (except for injection site reaction and laboratory abnormalities lasting < 7 days without clinical symptoms)
    • The following hematological toxicities: Grade 4 or higher anemia, Grade 4 or higher neutropenia or lymphocytopenia lasting 7 days, Grade 3 or higher febrile neutropenia, Grade 4 or higher platelet count decreased.

    The severity of AEs was graded in accordance with Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 (Japanese version).

    In addition, a DLT-equivalent treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as a DLT occurred during the extend treatment period (at Cycle 2 and thereafter).

    Measured: Day 29

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Subjects With CTCAE Grade 3 or Higher TEAEs

    The severity (grade) of an AE was evaluated using the 5-point scale from Grade 1 to Grade 5 in accordance with CTCAE version 4.0 (Japanese version) , where Grade 1 = Mild; Grade 2 = Moderate; Grade 3 = Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; Grade 4 = Life-threatening consequences; Grade 5 = Death related to AE.

    Measured: From the start of the study drug administration until the completion of the post-treatment observation (28 days after the last administration)

  2. Tumor Response Rate in Cycle 1

    Tumor response was graded in accordance with the new Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (version 1.1).

    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions (any malignant lymph nodes selected as target lesions must have a reduction in the minor axis to <10 mm) Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the diameter sum of the target lesions as compared with the diameter sum at screening Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the diameter sum of the target lesions as compared with the smallest diameter sum recorded after the start of treatment, and at least 5 mm increase in the absolute increase of at least 5 mm Stable Disease (SD): Neither tumor shrinkage equivalent to PR nor tumor enlargement equivalent to PD Not Evaluable (NE): No examination is feasible or the tumor response cannot be considered as any of CR, PR, PD, and SD

    Measured: Day 29

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing OCV-103 and OCV-104 in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 3 sites in Japan.

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 4 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 26 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Japan. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Feb 2021). 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?

Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (time frame: Day 29). 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 NCT01801930, 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 26 Feb 2021.
