About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of Palbociclib (PD-0332991) in Patients With Metastatic Urothelial Cancer (UC) After Failure of First-Line Chemotherapy

This multicenter phase II trial will evaluate palbociclib (PD-0332991) in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) (also referred to as p16) loss and positive Retinoblastoma (Rb) expression after failure of first-line chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

This multicenter phase II trial will evaluate palbociclib (PD-0332991) in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) (also referred to as p16) loss and positive Retinoblastoma (Rb) expression after failure of first-line chemotherapy. The study will enroll up to 40 patients to identify 36 evaluable patients, using a Simon's two-stage design, with a primary endpoint of progression free survival (PFS) at 4 months (PFS4). Secondary objectives include estimating median PFS, overall survival (OS), response rate (RR) and exploratory objectives include an evaluation of molecular predictors of response and resistance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival

    Estimate progression free survival (PFS) at 4 months in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer (UC) who have progressed after first-line chemotherapy. PFS is defined as the percent of patients who are alive and free from progression at 4 months.

    Measured: 4 Months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from D1 of treatment until progression or death as a result of any cause. Progressive Disease (PD), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions

    Measured: 4 Months

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time from day 1 of treatment until death as a result of any cause.

    Measured: Patients will be followed for up to 5 years after removal from study therapy or death, whichever occurs first.

  3. Response Rate (RR) - Total Number of Patients With Complete Response (CR) and/or Partial Response (PR)

    Estimate response rate (RR) in patients with metastatic UC who have progressed after first-line chemotherapy. Response rate will be the number of patients with complete response and/or partial response. Response will be based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. Radiographic response will be measured by RECIST, Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria, indicating if subject experienced a Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Stable Disease (SD), no response or less response than Partial or Progressive; or Progressive Disease (PD), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: 4 Months

  4. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Characterize the safety profile of palbociclib in patients with metastatic UC after first-line chemotherapy. The NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events is a descriptive terminology which can be utilized for Adverse Event (AE) reporting. A grading (severity) scale is provided for each AE term. Grade 1 Mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated. Grade 2 Moderate; minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental Activities of Daily Living (ADL). Grade 3 Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self care ADL. Grade 4 Life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated. Grade 5 Death related to AE.

    Measured: 30 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Palbociclib in people with Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma (UC), run by UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center at 3 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 21 inclusion and 12 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 16 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 24 Apr 2018). 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 (time frame: 4 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 16 Nov 2018.
