About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Randomized, Open-Label Clinical Study of Napabucasin (GB201) in Combination With FOLFIRI Versus Napabucasin in Adult Patients With Previously Treated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (CRC)

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, phase III study of Napabucasin plus bi-weekly FOLFIRI (Arm 1) vs. Napabucasin (Arm 2) for adult patients with metastatic CRC who have failed standard chemotherapy regimens. For patients who have failed bevacizumab with irinotecan-based chemotherapies (treatment failure is defined as radiologic progression of disease during or within 3 months following the last dose), bevacizumab maybe administered in combination with FOLFIRI to patients randomized to Arm 1.

What participants receive

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

  • NapabucasinDrug

    Also called GB201

    Napabucasin 240 mg will be administered orally, twice daily, with doses separated by approximately 8~12 hours.

  • FluorouracilDrug

    Also called 5-FU, Benda-5 FU

    Fluorouracil 400 mg/m^2 bolus will be administered intravenously immediately following irinotecan/leucovorin infusion, followed by Fluorouracil 1200 mg/m^2/day (total 2400 mg/m^2) continuous infusion.

  • LeucovorinDrug

    Also called Folinic Acid

    Irinotecan 180 mg/m^2 followed by or concurrent with leucovorin 400 mg/m^2 will be administered intravenously, over approximately 90 minutes and 2 hours, respectively.

  • IrinotecanDrug

    Also called Irinotecan Aurobindo

    Irinotecan 180 mg/m^2 followed by or concurrent with leucovorin 400 mg/m^2 will be administered intravenously, over approximately 90 minutes and 2 hours, respectively.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Napabucasin plus FOLFIRIExperimentalNapabucasin 240 mg will be administered orally, twice daily, with doses separated by approximately 8~12 hours. For patients who have failed bevacizumab with irinotecan-based chemotherapies, bevacizumab may be administered with FOLFIRI. FOLFIRI infusion will start at least 2 hours following the first daily dose of napabucasin and will be administered every 2 weeks, starting on C1D1. If bevacizumab is added to FOLFIRI, bevacizumab infusion should start at least 2 hours following the first daily dose of napabucasin and will be administered every 2 weeks. Irinotecan/leucovorin infusion will follow bevacizumab infusion. 5-FU 400 mg/ m^2 bolus will be administered intravenously immediately following irinotecan/leucovorin infusion, followed by 5-FU 1200 mg/ m^2/day continuous infusion. For patients who could not tolerate FOLFIRI at the full dose previously, FOLFIRI should be started at the same dose level the patient tolerated FOLFIRI previously.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    To assess the effect of Napabucasin plus biweekly FOLFIRI versus Napabucasin on the Overall Survival of patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer.

    Measured: 43 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    Defined as the time from randomization to the first objective documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause.

    Measured: 43 months

  2. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response or partial response (CR + PR) based on RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: 43 months

  3. Disease control rate (DCR)

    Defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response, partial response, and stable disease (CR + PR + SD) based on RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: 43 months

  4. Number of Patients with Adverse Events

    All patients who have received at least one dose of Napabucasin will be included in the safety analysis according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.0. The incidence of adverse events will be summarized by type of adverse event and severity.

    Measured: 43 months

  5. Quality of Life (QoL)

    QoL will be measured using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) in patients with pretreated metastatic CRC treated with Napabucasin plus biweekly FOLFIRI versus Napabucasin.

    Measured: 43 months

  6. Overall Survival in biomarker positive patients

    To assess the effect of Napabucasin plus FOLFIRI versus Napabucasin on the Overall Survival of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer in biomarker positive patients. This biomarker-positive sub-population is defined as those patients with phospho-STAT3/nuclear β-catenin positivity on immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) archival tissue.

    Measured: 43 months

  7. Progression Free Survival in biomarker positive patients

    Defined as the time from randomization to the first objective documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause. This biomarker-positive sub-population is defined as those patients with nuclear β-catenin and/or phospho-STAT3 positivity on immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) archival tissue.

    Measured: 43 months

  8. Objective Response Rate in biomarker positive patients

    Defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response or partial response (CR + PR) based on RECIST 1.1. This biomarker-positive sub-population is defined as those patients with nuclear β-catenin and/or phospho-STAT3 positivity on immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) archival tissue.Defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response or partial response (CR + PR) based on RECIST 1.1.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Napabucasin, Fluorouracil and Leucovorin in people with Previously Treated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by 1Globe Health Institute LLC at 37 sites 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 6 inclusion and 10 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 18 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 37 sites 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Liu Wang (+86-10-62336199, wangliu@1globe-china.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: 43 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 18 Jun 2019.
