About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Phase II Trial to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Fruquintinib Plus Best Supportive Care (BSC) Versus Placebo Plus BSC in Patients With Colorectal Cancer as 3rd or Above Therapy

Fruquintinib administered at 5mg once daily in 4 weeks treatment cycle (three weeks on and one week off) was well tolerated and demonstrated encouraging preliminary clinical antitumor activity in patients with advanced Colorectal Cancer (CRC) in Phase Ib study.

This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib in the treatment of patients with metastatic CRC who have progressed after metastatic CRC second line or above standard chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter Phase II clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib plus Best Supportive Care (BSC) versus placebo plus BSC in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have progressed after second-line or above standard chemotherapy.

After checking eligibility criteria, subjects will be randomized into Fruquintinib plus BSC group (treatment group) or placebo plus BSC group (control group) in a ration of 2:1.

Primary Efficacy Endpoint:

Progression free survival (PFS) (According to RECIST Version 1.1).

Secondary Efficacy Endpoints:

Objective Response Rate (ORR), Disease Control Rate (DCR), Overall Survival (OS).

Safety and tolerance will be evaluated by incidence, severity and outcomes of adverse events (AEs) and categorized by severity in accordance with the NCI common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTC AE) Version 4.0.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS refers to the time interval between the randomization date and the initial record of PD or date of death, whichever is earlier. The presence of PD shall be determined in accordance with the result of the evaluation performed by the investigator, using with RECIST v1.1 criteria. The date of final tumor evaluation will be used as the censoring date for subjects who have not presented with disease progression or death by that date. The date of randomization will be used as the censoring date for subjects which have no death and post-baseline tumor evaluation. If a subject has no post-baseline tumor evaluation but recorded as dead, death will be count as PFS event.

    Measured: From randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The ORR is defined as the rate of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as the best overall response (BOR), based on evaluation of target lesions and non-target lesions with corroborant radiological method and determined by RECIST v1.1, for the ITT set of response evaluable subjects. Subjects who have no post-baseline tumor evaluation shall be regarded as subjects without ORR. Subjects who qualify for evaluation of CR or PR should have at least one available lesion for measurement with RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: From randomization up to progressive disease or end of treatment (EOT) due to any cause.

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    The DCR is defined as the rate of corroborant CR, PR and stable disease (SD) as the BOR, based on evaluation of target lesions and non-target lesions with corroborant radiological method and determined according to RECIST v1.1, for the ITT set of response evaluable subjects.

    Measured: From randomization up to progressive disease or EOT due to any cause.

  3. Over Survival (OS)

    The OS refers to the time interval between the randomization date and the date of death (any cause). The final known date of survival will be used as the censoring date for subjects that have not been reported to have died by the time of analysis.

    Measured: From randomization until death due to any cause.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing fruquintinib in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Hutchison Medipharma Limited at 5 sites in China.

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 8 inclusion and 13 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 16 Jun 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 13 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?

Progression Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: From randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first.). 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 NCT02196688, 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 16 Jun 2020.
