About this study

Official title: Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) Associated With Concurrent Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin in the Treatment of Locally Advanced or Inoperable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC): A Phase I Study

This is a phase I study to evaluate the safety of concurrent chemoradiation combining radiotherapy (IGRT) with two cytotoxic agents, capecitabine and oxaliplatin in patients with advanced or inoperable hepatocellular carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

In this phase I study, patients with advanced or inoperable hepatocellular carcinoma, or those failed other strategies will be recruited. The primary tumor and nearby metastatic nodes will be irradiated with Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) mostly with conventional fractions. During the course, oral capecitabine and intravenous oxaliplatin will be given concurrently. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for the two drugs will be determined during escalation according to the occurrence of dose limiting toxicities (DLT).

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • IGRTRadiation

    Also called Image-guided radiation therapy

    IGRT: 45 to 54Gy, 1.8-3Gy per fraction.

  • CapecitabineDrug

    Also called CCRT concurrent chemotherapy 1 capecitabine

    Capecitabine: by oral, D1-14, every 21 days, 600mg/m2 bid per day in level 1, and then escalated every another dose level.

  • OxaliplatinDrug

    Also called CCRT concurrent chemotherapy 2 oxaliplatin

    Oxaliplatin: intravenously, D1 and D8, every 21 days, 30mg/m2 per day in level 1, and then escalated every another dose level.

Study groups in NCT02403544
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CCRT ArmExperimentalPatients recruited will be treated by concurrent chemoradiotherapy with IGRT and two cytotoxic agents: capecitabine and oxaliplatin. Capecitabine will be taken orally twice a day, from D1 to D14 while oxaliplatin will be given intravenously on D1 and D8, every 21 days. The doses of the two drugs will be escalated alternatively in each level group. The radiation will be given by IGRT and the dose is between 45 to 54Gy, 1.8-3Gy per fraction.
Receives: Radiation: IGRT; Drug: Capecitabine; Drug: Oxaliplatin

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for capecitabine and oxaliplatin

    Measured: up to four weeks after the end of the treatment.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT)

    Measured: up to four weeks after the end of the treatment.

  2. In field recurrence rate (LR) or local failure free survival (LFFS)

    Measured: From the completion of CCRT to 6, 12, 24, 36 months afterward.

  3. Intrahepatic failure rate or intrahepatic failure free survival (IHFFS)

    Measured: From the completion of CCRT to 6, 12, 24, 36 months afterward.

  4. Extrahepatic failure rate or extrahepatic failure free survival (EHFFS)

    Measured: From the completion of CCRT to 6, 12, 24, 36 months afterward.

  5. Overall survival

    Measured: From the completion of CCRT to 6, 12, 24, 36 months afterward.

  6. Tumor response rate including complete response and partial response rates

    Measured: 1 month and 3 month from the end of CCRT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IGRT, Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin in people with Carcinoma, Hepatocellular, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site 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 15 inclusion and 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jing Jin, doctor (86-10-87787456, Jingjin1025@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for capecitabine and oxaliplatin (time frame: up to four weeks after the end of the treatment.). 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 5 Jan 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
