What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01913639
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
FOLFOX Plus RegorafenibExperimentalRegorafenib 160 mg daily on days 4 to 10 and days 18 to 24 as four 40 mg coprecipitate tablets + mFOLFOX on Day 1 and Day 15 of each cycle. Each cycle consists of 28 days. All patients will receive systemic chemotherapy with the mFOLFOX regimen and regorafenib. The specific version of the FOLFOX regimen used at MSKCC is mFOLFOX6. mFOLFOX6 will be given on Day 1 of each cycle. Patients will receive Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV (over 120 minutes), leucovorin 400 mg/m2 IV (over 120 minutes), 5-FU 400 mg/m2 IVP, and 5-FU 1200 mg/m2/day CIVI x 2 days, every two weeks. Treatment will be performed on the scheduled day ± 7 days. In case of discontinuation of FOLFOX due to cumulative toxicity and administration as a single agent during the study, regorafenib for patient convenience will be administered 160 mg daily for 3 weeks on/1 week off. The 3 weeks on/1 week off schedule is supported by the single agent regorafenib data in colon cancer and GIST.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival will be measured from the start of treatment to death or last follow-up and will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Overall Response Rate

    This is defined as the percentage of patients who have achieved either an objective complete or partial target lesion response that is confirmed on the RECIST 1.1 criteria. Complete or partial responses will be confirmed with repeat CT evaluation after 4 weeks.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  3. Participants Evaluated for Toxicity

    Adverse events will be determined as per the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria, version 4.0. Toxicity during cycle 1 and subsequent cycles will be reported.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Regorafenib, 5-Fluorouracil and Leucovorin in people with Esophageal Cancer and Gastric Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 5 sites 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 12 inclusion and 15 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 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 May 2020). 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?

Progression Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: 6 months). 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 2020.
