About this study

Official title: Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Pilot Trial to Explore Whether Lipids Prevent Carboplatin and Oxaliplatin Hypersensitivity Reactions

This randomized pilot trial studies how well fat emulsion works in preventing hypersensitivity reactions in patients with cancer receiving carboplatin or oxaliplatin. Giving lipids before chemotherapy may prevent some drug reactions from carboplatin or oxaliplatin.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine if the infusion of a lipid emulsion before each dose of chemotherapy appears to prevent carboplatin and oxaliplatin hypersensitivity reactions in high-risk patients.

II. To explore if lipid infusions modulate a well-established panel of mediators of hypersensitivity reactions and if these mediators appear to predict reactions.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups.

GROUP I: Patients receive fat emulsion intravenously (IV) immediately before each dose of either carboplatin or oxaliplatin. Treatment continues for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

GROUP II: Patients receive placebo IV immediately before each dose of either carboplatin or oxaliplatin. Treatment continues for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time-to-carboplatin or Oxaliplatin Acute Hypersensitivity Reaction

    The primary endpoint is the time to healthcare provider reported hypersensitivity reactions from either carboplatin or oxaliplatin. Kaplan Meier curves will be constructed and a log-rank test will be used to compare time-to-hypersensitivity reaction between treatment arms. Data will be censored based on last infusion with no hypersensitivity reaction with a maximum study treatment duration of 2 years per patient.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fat Emulsion in people with Advanced Malignant Neoplasm, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site 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 8 inclusion and 4 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 17 Dec 2024. 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 May 2020). 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?

Time-to-carboplatin or Oxaliplatin Acute Hypersensitivity Reaction (time frame: Up to 2 years). 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 17 Dec 2024.
