About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open Label, Multicenter, Comparative Phase II Trial of Ipilimumab After Isolated Limb Perfusion (ILP), in Patients With In-transit Metastases Melanoma Stage IIIB and IIIC

Isolated limb perfusion (ILP) results in good response rates for locally advanced melanoma (stage IIIB and IIIC, AJCC 2009). Outcome is influenced by stage of disease, reflecting the aggressiveness of the melanoma. Our objective is to demonstrate at least a doubling of the progression free survival for the patients having an adjuvant treatment by Ipilimumab in this patient population with unfavourable characteristics. PFS ranges from 10-12 months. So at least a doubling of this period would be a clinically highly significant result.

Being tested
Ipilimumab

What participants receive

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

  • IpilimumabDrug

    Ipilimumab is to be administered as an IV infusion with a 1.2μm in-line filter (see current version of Investigator's Brochure), using a volumetric pump, at the 3 mg/kg dose, at the ratio and rate specified in the pharmacy manual, to complete the infusion in 90 minutes with a 100 cc normal saline flush at the end. The total dose needed should be diluted to a total volume of 250 mL in 0.9% sodium chloride injection, USP or 5% Dextrose Injection, USP.. The total dose must be calculated using the most recent subject weight (obtained on the same day of, and prior to, the infusion). If the patient weighs more than 125,0 kg, the Coordinating Investigator needs to be contacted to discuss the total infusion volume, infusion rate and duration. Ipilimumab 3 mg/kg will be administered as a single dose intravenously over 90 minutes every 3 weeks for 4 cycles (Weeks W1, W4, W7, W10). A time interval of +/- 3 days is allowed for Ipilimumab administration.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to progression, local progression or distant progression

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall Survival

    patients who are alive at the time of an analysis will be censored for survival at the time of their last contact

    Measured: from randomization to documentation of death due to any cause or the last known alive date up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ipilimumab in people with In-transit Metastases Melanoma Stage IIIB and IIIC, run by Gustave Roussy, Cancer Campus, Grand Paris at 1 site in France.

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 19 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 9 Jun 2016. 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 France. 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?

Time to progression, local progression or distant progression (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 9 months). 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 NCT02094391, 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 9 Jun 2016.
