  • Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below:
  • Hematologic: Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) >1000/mcL (microliters), Hemoglobin > 8gm/dL (transfusions permitted) and platelets > 75,000/mcL
  • Renal: serum creatinine ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN) or creatinine clearance (CrCl) (either estimated or calculated) >60 mL/min/1.73 m for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal.

  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
  • Capecitabine is contra-indicated in pregnant women because of known detrimental effects on the fetus. A negative pregnancy test is required in all premenopausal women within 14 days of study therapy initiation. Women of child-bearing potential and men with an active female sexual partner must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal, surgical, barrier methods or abstinence allowed) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have had systemic chemotherapies or targeted therapies within 3 weeks or radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to entering the study or those patients whose adverse events from prior therapies have not recovered to < grade 1 and are still considered clinically significant.
  • Patients receiving any other investigational agents for cancer treatment.
  • Patients with treated, stable brain metastases are allowed to enroll. Patients must be at least 4 weeks from brain radiation and off any medications used to treat brain metastases including steroids. Patients are allowed to be on anti-epileptic medications that are not contraindicated based on the drug-interaction table.
  • Patients with any condition of the gastrointestinal tract that is expected to result in an inability to swallow or absorb oral medications (ie. prior surgical procedures affecting absorption and requiring i.v. alimentation). This will be determined at the discretion of the PI.
  • Patients may not be taking any concomitant drugs that are contraindicated based on the drug-interaction table.
  • Concurrent treatment with warfarin (coumadin) is allowed, but close monitoring of the Prothrombin Time/International Normalized Ratio (PT/INR) is recommended.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active severe infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, clinically significant or symptomatic cardiac arrhythmia, other malignancies requiring therapy or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant women or women who are breastfeeding are excluded from this study because capecitabine is a pregnancy category D drug and is known to pass to the infant in breastmilk.
  • Patients with known deficiency of the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) enzyme.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to capecitabine.

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study Evaluating Pharmacokinetic Parameters of Capecitabine Dosing in Patients With Advanced Cancer and Elevated Body Mass Index

The purpose of this research study is to find what happens to capecitabine in the body when dosed using actual versus ideal body weight in subjects with advanced tumors and elevated body mass index.

Read the detailed description

Cycle 1 : Capecitabine 1,250 mg/m2 orally Per os (PO) once a day (BID) for 7 consecutive days (D1 - D7) will be administered by subject (with Ideal Body Weight being used to determine BSA) for dosage. Day 8-No drug administered.

Capecitabine 1,250 mg/m2 PO BID for 7 more consecutive days (D9 - D15) will be administered by subject (with Actual Body Weight being used to determine BSA) for dosage. There will be 6 consecutive days that no drug will be administered by subject (Days 16-21).

Cycle 2 and beyond: Capecitabine 1,250 mg/m2 PO BID for 14 consecutive days (D1 - D14) will be administered by subject (with Actual Body Weight being used to determine BSA) for dosage. Days 15-21-No drug administered.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Curve (AUC) on Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 9

    AUC will be calculated for Capecitabine dosed for Ideal Body Weight during the first cycle (days 1-7) and for Capecitabine dosed for Actual Body Weight for first cycle (days 9-15). [nonlinear mixed effects modeling approach]

    Measured: Up to 15 days

  2. Cmax During Cycle 1

    Cmax will be reported for Capecitabine dosed for Ideal Body Weight during the first cycle (days 1-7) and for Capecitabine dosed for Actual Body Weight for first cycle (days 9-15). [nonlinear mixed effects modeling approach]

    Measured: Up to 15 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Response Rate

    Responses will be determined using RECIST v. 1.1 criteria and summarized in tabular format. The complete and partial response rates will be calculated and reported along with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  2. Progression Free Survival

    Progression-free survival will be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Xeloda in people with Obesity and Neoplasms, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison 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 14 inclusion and 10 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 25 Nov 2019. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Aug 2019). 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?

Area Under the Curve (AUC) on Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 9 (time frame: Up to 15 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Nov 2019.
