Who may be able to join

  • Primary diagnosis of uveal melanoma at least 12 mm in largest basal diameter as clinically determined by the treating investigator. Cytologic determination of diagnosis is not required.

Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to study entry. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study therapy, and 4 months after completion of crizotinib administration.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Who cannot join

  • History of another malignancy except for those who have been disease-free for 3 years, or patients with a history of completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer and/or patients with indolent secondary malignancies not requiring active therapy, are eligible. Consult the study Principal Investigator if unsure whether second malignancies meet the requirements specified above.

  • Have a known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to crizotinib.
  • Concurrent administration of crizotinib and a strong inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A is not permitted. Many over-the-counter and dietary supplements also inhibit or induce CYP3A and thus are prohibited.

  • Concurrent administration of crizotinib and agents that can cause QTc prolongation is not permitted.
  • Known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection (with the exception of chronic or cleared HBV and HCV infection, which will be allowed). HIV-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with crizotinib. In addition, these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.

About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of Adjuvant Crizotinib in High-Risk Uveal Melanoma Following Definitive Therapy

The study is designed to determine the 32 month rate of distant relapse in patients with uveal melanoma who are at high risk of recurrence following definitive therapy with surgery or radiation who receive adjuvant crizotinib; and secondarily, the overall survival and disease specific survival in this patient population.

Read the detailed description

Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, and arises from melanocytes within the choroid plexus of the eye. Melanomas of the ocular and adnexal structures comprise approximately 5% of all melanomas and are biologically and prognostically distinct from cutaneous melanoma. In the United States, an estimated 2000 patients are diagnosed with this disease each year.

The development of metastasis in this disease is common and occurs in approximately 50% of patients with posterior uveal melanoma within 15 years after the initial diagnosis and treatment. Uveal melanoma is thought to be particularly resistant to systemic treatment, and no systemic therapy has yet been demonstrated to improve survival. Drugs commonly used to treat advanced cutaneous melanoma rarely achieve durable responses in patients with uveal melanoma.

What participants receive

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

  • CrizotinibDrug

    Also called Xalkori

    An anti-cancer drug acting as an anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and c-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1) inhibitor, used to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to other parts of the body and is caused by a defect in a gene called ALK.

    Crizotinib will be provided as capsules containing 200 or 250 mg of study medication for oral administration.

Study groups in NCT02223819
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CrizotinibExperimentalSubjects will receive 48 weeks (12 four-week cycles) of crizotinib 250 mg PO twice a day (BID). Subjects will be evaluated by routine bloodwork and physical exam every 4 weeks while they are receiving crizotinib and during follow up period.
Receives: Drug: Crizotinib

What is being measured

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

  1. Relapse Free Survival (RFS) Rate at 32 Months

    RFS rate will be defined as the percentage of patients who do not experience any new tumor growth at any site on the body distant from the primary site or death from any cause from the time of study entry to the end of the relevant timepoint. RFS probabilities were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: 32 Months

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

    OS will be defined as the time from treatment start to date of death or last followup. Participants were followed up to 36 months after treatment start and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to generate the Overall Survival estimate.

    Measured: Up to 36 months

  2. Disease-Specific Survival (DSS) Time

    DSS is defined as the time from treatment start to death due to disease or last followup. Participants who die from other causes will be censored.

    Measured: Up to 36 months

  3. Number of Participants With Treatment Discontinuation Due to Toxicity

    Toxicity grading will be performed in accordance with NCI CTCAE, version 4.0.

    Measured: 48 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Crizotinib in people with Uveal Melanoma, run by Columbia University at 4 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 19 inclusion and 10 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 6 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 6 Dec 2023). 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?

Relapse Free Survival (RFS) Rate at 32 Months (time frame: 32 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 6 Dec 2023.
