About this study

Official title: Prospective Study for Validation of Immunological Biomarkers in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

The investigators recently identified promiscuous HLA-DR-derived epitopes from the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) called universal cancer peptides (UCP), to study tumor-specific CD4+ T cell responses.

The investigators found high frequency of naturally occuring UCP-specific TH1 cells in long term survival of metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) previously treated by 5 fluoro-uracil -oxaliplatin (Folfox) +/- bevacizumab regiment (Godet et al. OncoImmunology 2012 and unpublished data).

Epitopes-CRC02 is a French prospective multicenter study which will evaluate the post chemotherapy and post surgery modulation of host tumor-specific CD4 TH1 cell responses in metastatic colorectal cancer patients and their correlation with progression-free survival.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Additional biological samplesOtherAdditional blood samples will be realized specifically to the study at baseline, at 1 month, at 3 months, and 1 month after surgery (if applicable). Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell (PBMC) and plasma will be collected. Tissue tumor is collected during surgery if applicable.
Receives: Other: Additional biological samples

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival

    time interval between the date of initiation of treatment and the date of first progression (local, remote [extent of the disease by RECIST v1.1] second cancer) or death from any cause.

    Measured: date of first progression of the disease (within 3 years after the enrollment in the study)]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Additional biological samples in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon at 9 sites in France.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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 11 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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: date of first progression of the disease (within 3 years after the enrollment in the study)]). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02817178, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 May 2022.
