About this study

Official title: Phase II-b Randomized Study of Cabazitaxel in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Resistant to Standard Treatment

The purpose of this study is to determine efficacy and safety of cabazitaxel administration in patients with colorectal cancer resistant to standard treatment.

Being tested
Cabazitaxel, Best Supportive Care
Medical subject headings
Colorectal Neoplasms

What participants receive

Study groups in NCT02204332
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CabazitaxelExperimentalCabazitaxel at a dose of 25 mg / m² in a 5% dextrose or 0.9% NaCl intravenously over 1 hour, every 3 weeks (1 cycle). Besides, patient will be treated with BSC.
Receives: Drug: Cabazitaxel
Best Supportive CareOtherBest Supportive Care (BSC), with evaluations every 3 weeks (1 cycle).
Receives: Other: Best Supportive Care

What is being measured

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

  1. The efficacy of cabazitaxel measured by estimating the overall response rate (ORR), as the percentage of individuals who achieve a complete tumor response (CR) or partial tumor response (PR) in each arm and between arms.

    Measured: From date of randomization to disease progression or until 24 months from enrolment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: From randomisation to either documented disease progression or death from any cause or until 24 months from enrolment (whichever occurs earlier)

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted30 Jul 2014 (estimated)
  2. Study startMar 2013
  3. Primary completionSep 2013

Why it stopped: Interim analysis performed on the first 10 patients showed no efficacy of cabazitaxel

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cabazitaxel in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Hospital Clinico Universitario de Santiago at 8 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 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 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: Interim analysis performed on the first 10 patients showed no efficacy of cabazitaxel). 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?

The efficacy of cabazitaxel measured by estimating the overall response rate (ORR), as the percentage of individuals who achieve a complete tumor response (CR) or partial tumor response (PR) in each arm and between arms. (time frame: From date of randomization to disease progression or until 24 months from enrolment). 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 30 Jul 2014.
