About this study

Official title: Open Label Phase II Clinical Trial of Orteronel (TAK-700) in Metastatic or Advanced Non-resectable Granulosa Cell Ovarian Tumors. The Greko II Study.

Granulosa Cell ovarian carcinoma is an infrequent subtype of neoplasia well differentiated from epithelial tumors. They account for 5% of all ovarian malignancies and, with an incidence of 0.4-1.2 cases per 100000 habitants, is considered as a rare disease.

Though most cases are identified at initial stages and can be cured through surgical resection, distant recurrences have been documented even 10 years after resecting the primary tumor. At advanced stage it is a lethal disease.

Unfortunately because of the low incidence of this disease randomized clinical trials are lacking. In fact current evidence for treatment is provided by case reports, retrospective studies and phase II clinical trials performed one decade ago.

Orteronel, a novel, orally active, selective inhibitor of 17,20-lyase, is being developed as an endocrine therapy for relevant hormone-sensitive cancers such as prostate cancer and breast cancer. Orteronel is expected to suppress sex hormone levels in both circulation and relevant hormone-dependent malignant tissue. Since sex hormone overproduction has been demonstrated in granulosa cell ovarian tumors and seems to play a major role in this disease, this study will assess the efficacy or orteronel treating such tumors.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical benefit at 6 months

    Clinical benefit is defined as the average of patients with radiological response (partial or complete) plus stable disease longer than 6 months by RECIST 1.1 criteria

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Response Rate

    Overall Response Rate according to RECIST 1.1 criteria.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks, during 6 months

  2. Progression free survival

    Progression Free Survival defined as the time from the administration of the first dose of treatment to disease progression or death from any cause.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks, during 6 months

  3. Overall Survival

    Overall Survival defined as the time from first dose of treatment to patient death from any cause

    Measured: Every 12 weeks, untill death

  4. Reduction of sex hormones production.

    Significant reduction of sex hormones production will be considered as at least a reduction to half the basal level confirmed in one determination one month apart.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks, during 6 months

  5. Toxicity profile

    Frequency of each adverse event per patient

    Measured: Every 4 weeks, untill end of treatment (6 months estimated)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Orteronel 300mg BID in people with Metastatic or Advanced Non-resectable Granulosa Cell Ovarian Tumors, run by Grupo Español de Tumores Huérfanos e Infrecuentes at 9 sites in Spain.

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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 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 9 sites in Spain. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Slow recruitment rate). 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?

Clinical benefit at 6 months (time frame: 6 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 NCT02101684, 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 5 Mar 2018.
