What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • BiopsyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Histological biopsy

    Histological biopsy of the "index lesion" (a radiological measurable lesion on which biopsy is performed) at baseline, as well as when showing progressive disease. Histological biopsies will be subjected to DNA sequencing to assess the mutational profile, as well as to analysis of carboxylesterase activity.

  • Blood samplesProcedure or surgery

    Also called Blood sampling

    Blood samples will be taken at baseline to determine patient's genetic background variation (germline DNA).

  • PharmacokineticsProcedure or surgery

    Also called PK, Pharmacokinetic analysis, Pharmacokinetic analyses

    Blood samples will be taken for pharmacokinetic analysis of the active irinotecan metabolite (SN-38).

  • Midazolam clearance testProcedure or surgery

    Also called MCT

    Patients who are being treated in Rotterdam will be subjected to blood draws for validation of the earlier developed midazolam phenotyping test (midazolam clearance test), which may be an indicator for pharmacokinetics of irinotecan.

Study groups in NCT01855061
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
IrinotecanPatients will be subjected to a their metastatic solid tumor. Radiological response will be evaluated after each 2 cycles: 1. percentage change in radiological volume of the "index lesion" (radiological measurable lesion that underwent biopsy) after the first two cycles of irinotecan; 2. radiological response according to RECIST 1.1 after each 2 cycles. Patients are intended to receive irinotecan until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. Patients will be subjected to another biopsy of the index lesion at definitive discontinuation of irinotecan. Patients will also be subjected to blood draws for determining patient's genetic background variation. Side studies include: * pharmacogenetics * pharmacokinetics of SN-38 * carboxylesterase activity in the index lesion * midazolam clearance test (only in Rotterdam patients)
Receives: Procedure: Biopsy; Procedure: Blood samples; Procedure: Pharmacokinetics; Procedure: Midazolam clearance test

What is being measured

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

  1. Exploration of the correlation between the mutational profile and the percentage change in volumetric measurement of the index lesion after the first two cycles of chemotherapy.

    Measured: Change in radiological volume of the index lesion after the first 2 cycles of irinotecan. Radiological response (according to RECIST 1.1) after the first 2 cycles of irinotecan (i.e. after 2 x 3 weeks = 6 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Exploration of the correlation between the mutational profile and radiological response according to RECIST-criteria after the first two cycles of chemotherapy.

    Measured: Analysis 6 weeks after initiation of treatment

  2. Exploration of the correlation between the mutational profile and progression free survival and overall survival.

    Measured: Overall survival approximately after 2 years of first cycle of irinotecan. Progression free survival approximately 3 months after first irinotecan

  3. Exploration of the correlation between the mutational profile of the index lesion and patient's germline DNA background variation.

    Measured: Analysis after progressive disease, on average after 3 months.

  4. Differences in mutational profile of metastasis prior to and after exposure to treatment.

    Measured: Analysis after progressive disease and subsequent post-treatment biopsy, on average after 3 months of treatment

  5. Determine reliable and valid strategies for statistical analysis for biomarker discovery

    Measured: 2 years

  6. Correlate response to pharmacokinetics of SN-38

    Measured: After progressive disease and subsequent post-treatment biopsy, in general after 3 months of treatment

  7. Determine carboxylesterase activity in metastatic tumor material (pre- and posttreatment) and correlate intra-tumoral carboxylesterase activity to systemic SN-38 pharmacokinetics and to irinotecan response

    Measured: After progressive disease and subsequent post-treatment biopsy, in general after 3 months of treatment

  8. Determine clinical applicability of the midazolam phenotyping probe

    Measured: After first cycle of irinotecan, at three weeks

  9. Number and nature of all (serious) adverse events of study related procedures

    Measured: 14 days after baseline biopsy and 14 days after post-treatment biopsy (approximately after 3 months of treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neoplasm Metastasis, run by P.O. Witteveen at 3 sites in Netherlands.

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 15 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2018. 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 Netherlands. 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?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Exploration of the correlation between the mutational profile and the percentage change in volumetric measurement of the index lesion after the first two cycles of chemotherapy. (time frame: Change in radiological volume of the index lesion after the first 2 cycles of irinotecan. Radiological response (according to RECIST 1.1) after the first 2 cycles of irinotecan (i.e. after 2 x 3 weeks = 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 9 Mar 2018.
