About this study

Official title: Single-center, Single-arm and Phase II/III Clinical Study of Paclitaxel (Albumin-binding) Combined With Oxaliplatin as First-line Treatment for Advanced Hepatobiliary and Malignant Tumors

  1. Advantages of albumin-bound paclitaxel Paclitaxel for injection (albumin-binding type) uses human serum albumin (HAS) as a carrier, and paclitaxel and HSA are made into paclitaxel-bound albumin nanoparticles by a high-pressure homogenization technique. After injection of paclitaxel (albumin-binding) into the blood, it rapidly disintegrates and disperses into a smaller albumin-paclitaxel complex, which binds and activates the gp60 albumin receptor on vascular endothelial cells, interacts with Caveolin on the cell membrane, and then is transported to the tumor intercellular substance by transcytosis. Tumor cells can secrete a SPARC protein with a specific affinity for albumin, which actively captures the albumin-paclitaxel complex in the tumor stroma and accumulates around the tumor cells. Since tumor neovascular endothelial cells highly express gp60 receptor and the SPARC protein is also highly expressed in the tumor region, the special transport mechanism of "gp60- Caveolin / caveola -SPARC protein" makes the paclitaxel for injection (albumin binding) have unique targeting and penetrating properties toward tumor tissues, hence the drug is highly concentrated in the tumor tissue, which can better increase the therapeutic effect and reduce the damage to normal tissues.

Paclitaxel for injection (albumin-binding type) has the following advantages: (1) it is unnecessary to pre-administer anti-allergic drugs, the infusion time is within 30 min, and patients have good compliance; (2) due to its higher safety, the dosage can be given as high as 260-300 mg/m2; (3) it makes full use of gp60 / cysteine acid secretory protein (SPARC protein) channel to make the drug enrich toward the tumor area, and the effect is good; (4) as the dosage is within 80 ~ 300 mg/m2, the AUC increase proportionally with the administered dose, ]the body is linearly metabolized., the half-life period does not prolong with the dose, and the clinical medication is safe and controllable. Currently, the drug has been approved for breast cancer treatment in China; approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for breast cancer, lung cancer, and pancreatic cancer treatment; approved for gastric cancer treatment in Japan; and NCCN guidelines recommend it for the treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, melanoma, ovarian cancer, and cervical cancer.

In summary, based on the biological advantages of albumin-binding paclitaxel such as high-distribution, high-dose, high-efficiency, and low-toxicity, the reported good clinical benefit and safety for hepatobiliary and malignant tumors, and the limited data about albumin-bound paclitaxel + oxaliplatin as the first-line treatment for advanced hepatobiliary and pancreatic malignancies, especially in Chinese patients, our center believes that is feasible and necessary to explore the effectiveness and safety of paclitaxel for injection (albumin-binding) combined with oxaliplatin as the first-line drugs for treatment of advanced oxaliplatin-based malignant tumors.

2 Purposes To evaluate the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel (albumin-bound) combined with oxaliplatin as the first-line drugs for treatment of advanced hepatobiliary and malignant tumors.

Primary endpoint: progression-free survival (PFS) Secondary study endpoints: disease control rate (DCR), overall survival (OS), and incidence and severity of adverse events (AE).

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

  • albumin-bound paclitaxel + oxaliplatinDrug

    Using albumin-bound paclitaxel (125 mg/m2, d1, 8, 15, ivgtt) + oxaliplatin (80 mg/m2, d1, 8, ivgtt) with or without other chemotherapeutic drugs, 28 days /cycle, until the disease progresses or patients can not tolerate toxicity. The investigators decide the follow-up treatment plan.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing albumin-bound paclitaxel + oxaliplatin in people with Advanced Hepatobiliary and Malignant Tumors, run by Dong Wang.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 19 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

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?

PFS (time frame: 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 19 Aug 2019.
