About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Multi-Center Phase 1b/2a Trial Investigating Different Doses of Sym004 in Combination With FOLFIRI in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Progressing After First-Line Therapy

This is a Phase 1b/2a study investigating the safety and efficacy of Sym004, an investigational medicinal product (IMP), in combination with FOLFIRI (chemotherapy) when administered every second week (Q2W).

Read the detailed description

In the Phase 1b (Dose-Escalation) portion of the trial, patients will be sequentially enrolled to dose-escalation cohorts until establishment of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of Sym004 in combination with FOLFIRI.

The Phase 2a (Dose-Expansion) portion of the trial is expected to begin after establishing the RP2D.

Note: In January 2017, the trial was terminated during Phase 1b and enrollment was prematurely discontinued. The primary objective changed to assess the safety of the treatment combination; collection of data for secondary and exploratory objectives was omitted.

What participants receive

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

  • Sym004Drug

    Sym004 is a 1:1 mixture of 2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which bind specifically to 2 non-overlapping epitopes of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).

  • FOLFIRIDrug

    Also called Irinotecan (Camptosar), Folinic Acid (Leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU)

    The standard FOLFIRI regimen consists of Irinotecan (180 mg/m^2 IV, infused over 60-90 minutes) concurrently with Folinic Acid (400 mg/m^2 IV, infused over 120 minutes) followed by 5-FU (400 mg/m^2 IV bolus, then 2400 mg/m^2 infused over 46 hours).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) by Nature, Severity, and Occurrence Measured From Baseline to End of Trial Participation, as Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for AEs (Version 4.03) (CTCAE v4.03).

    AEs were coded according to the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) classification. The incidence and type of AEs (e.g., treatment-emergent AE [TEAE]) were summarized according to MedDRA system organ classes and preferred terms. An AE was considered as treatment-emergent if it occurred after the first treatment administration.

    Measured: 15 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Sym004 and FOLFIRI in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Symphogen A/S at 8 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 26 Mar 2019. 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 United States, 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 combined 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.

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 9 Jan 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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) by Nature, Severity, and Occurrence Measured From Baseline to End of Trial Participation, as Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for AEs (Version 4.03) (CTCAE v4.03). (time frame: 15 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 26 Mar 2019.
