About this study
Official title: S1613, A Randomized Phase II Study of Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab (TP) Compared to Cetuximab and Irinotecan (CETIRI) in Advanced/Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) With HER-2 Amplification
This randomized phase II trial studies how well trastuzumab and pertuzumab work compared to cetuximab and irinotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with HER2/neu amplified colorectal cancer that has spread from where it started to other places in the body and cannot be removed by surgery. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab and pertuzumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cetuximab and irinotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving trastuzumab and pertuzumab may work better compared to cetuximab and irinotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with colorectal cancer.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate the efficacy of trastuzumab and pertuzumab (TP) (Arm 1) in HER-2 amplified metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) by comparing progression-free survival (PFS) on TP compared to control arm (Arm 2) of cetuximab and irinotecan hydrochloride (irinotecan) (CETIRI).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR), including confirmed complete and partial response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1, in treatment Arms 1 and 2.
II. To evaluate the overall survival (OS) in treatment Arms 1 and 2. III. To evaluate the safety and toxicity of TP compared to CETIRI.
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
- To estimate the rates of PFS, OS, and ORR in patients who crossover to TP (Arm 3) after disease progression on CETIRI.
II. To bank images for future retrospective analysis. III. To evaluate if HER-2/centromeric probe (CEP17) signal ratio and HER-2 gene copy number (GCN) are predictive of clinical efficacy for patients receiving TP versus CETIRI.
IV. To bank tissue and blood samples for other future correlative studies from patients enrolled on the study.
OUTLINE: Patients with HER2 gene amplification are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive pertuzumab intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes and trastuzumab IV over 30-120 minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
ARM II: Patients receive cetuximab IV over 60-120 minutes and irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 90 minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 14 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with documented disease progression may optionally crossover to Arm I.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 3 years.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression-free Survival(PFS)
To evaluate the efficacy of trastuzumab and pertuzumab (TP) in HER-2 amplified metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) by comparing progression-free survival (PFS) on TP compared to control arm of cetuximab and irinotecan (CETIRI). Progression-free survival is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of first documentation of progression. Using RECIST 1.1, progression is defined as a 20% increase in the sum of appropriate diameters of target measurable lesions over smallest sum observed and an absolute increase of at least 0.5 cm, unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease in the opinion of the treating physician, appearance of any new lesion/site, death due to disease without prior documentation of progression and without symptomatic deterioration (defined as, global deterioration of health status requiring discontinuation of treatment without objective evidence of progression), or death due to any cause.
Measured: Up to 3 years post randomization
Secondary outcomes (3)
Overall Response Rate (ORR) for TP and CETIRI Treatment Arms
To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR), including confirmed complete and partial response per RECIST 1.1, in the TP and CETIRI treatment arms. Overall response rate includes complete response(CR) and partial response(PR). Complete response is defined as complete disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no related symptoms. Partial response is defined as a greater than or equal to 30% decrease under baseline of the sum of appropriate diameters of all target measurable lesions for patients with at least one measurable lesion.
Measured: From baseline, through duration of treatment (once per cycle while on treatment), and every 8 weeks after treatment until progression, up to 3 years after the last accrual to registration step 2
2 Year Overall Survival (OS) for TP and CETIRI Treatment Arms
Percentage of participants still alive 2 years after the last accrual to registration step 2. Overall survival is defined as time from date of registration to date of death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive are censored at their last contact date.
Measured: from the date of the last accrual to registration step 2 to date of death due to any cause, up to 2 years
Number of Participants With Gr 3 Through 5 Adverse Events That Are Related to Study Drugs.
Routine toxicities were evaluated according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0, and SAEs were evaluated according to CTCAE version 5.0. Only adverse events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to study drug are reported.
Measured: Duration of treatment and follow-up until death or 3 years post Step 2 Randomization.
