About this study

Official title: Cetuximab as Salvage Therapy in Patients With Neo Wild-type RAS/RAF Metastatic Colorectal Cancer With Liver Metastases. A Proof-of-concept Study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of cetuximab or cetuximab-irinotecan in patients with neo wild-type colorectal cancer who have been previously treated for metastatic disease.

Patients will be included in cohort #1 or cohort #2. The inclusion in cohort #2 will start when the results of the cohort #1 are available.

Patient will receive either cetuximab alone (cohort #1) or cetuximab with irinotecan (cohort #2).

Read the detailed description

Background - Rationale

KRAS and NRAS mutations are present in roughly 50% of patients with advanced colorectal cancer and predict failure of anti-EGFR mabs therapies, thus genotyping colorectal cancer (CRC) is mandatory for personalized treatments.

Research has been selectively concentrated on the emergence of resistant clones in the blood of patients with wild-type (WT) RAS CRC as biomarker of anti-EGFR therapy resistance.

It has been suggested that patients with metastatic CRC harboring mutated primary tumors, thus not candidate to EGFR inhibitors, frequently have WT RAS circulating tumor cells in blood. Preliminary data suggest that patients with mutant KRAS colon cancer can frequently (50%) switch to a prevalent WT KRAS disease in course of treatment with anti-angiogenic drugs.

In patients with RAS wild-type colorectal cancer who previously received standard therapies, anti-EGFR mabs achieve a response rate of 20% as monotherapy and 30-40% in combination with irinotecan.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of cetuximab in patients with pretreated neo wild-type colorectal cancer using liquid biopsies for RAS molecular assessment

Study Objectives

Primary:

  • To evaluate the response rate using RECIST 1.1

Secondary:

  • To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS)
  • To evaluate disease control rate (DCR)
  • To evaluate safety

Exploratory:

  • Frequency of neo wild-type tumors
  • Frequency of RAS and BRAF neomutations during treatment

Study Design Prospective multicentric single-arm open-label phase II study in to 2 successive patient cohorts (cohort #1 followed by cohort #2).

Molecular screening using Idylla™ (Biocartis) ctKRAS and ctNRAS/BRAF Mutation Assays.

Cohort #1: Patients will be treated with cetuximab monotherapy (cetuximab 500mg/m² IV, day 1).

Cohort #2: Patients will be treated with cetuximab and irinotecan (cetuximab 500mg/m² IV, day 1; irinotecan 180mg/m² IV, day 1).

In both cohorts, treatment will be given intravenously every 14 days (q2w) until disease progression or limiting toxicity. Tumor evaluations will be done with CT-scan (or MRI) every 8 weeks using RECIST v1.1.

What is being measured

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

  1. response rate

    Tumor measurements will be obtained at baseline and every 8 weeks following treatment initiation. At the investigator's discretion, tumor assessments may be repeated at any time if progressive disease is suspected. Tumor response and progression will be assessed by the Investigator using RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: 4 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall survival

    OS is defined as the time interval from the date of inclusion to the date of death from any cause. Alive patients will be censored at the last date known to be alive, either during study treatment period or during follow-up period.

    Measured: time interval from inclusion to the date of death from any cause. Assessed up to 12 months after the beginning of the study

  2. Progression-free survival

    PFS is defined as the time interval from the date of inclusion to the date of first documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Alive patients without progression will be censored at the last tumor assessment, either during study treatment period or during follow-up period.

    Measured: the time interval from inclusion to the date of first documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Assessed up to 12 months after the beginning of the study

  3. Disease Control rate

    Disease control rate (DCR) is defined as the percentage of patients achieving CR, PR, or stable disease (SD).

    Measured: from baseline until end of treatment, assessed up to 12 months after the beginning of the study

  4. Tolerance

    Frequency of adverse events using NCI-CTCAE v5.0

    Measured: Assessed from study entry to 1 month after last study drug administration, assessed up to 12 months after the beginning of the study

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jun 2023. 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 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.

What does this 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.

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 Benoist CHIBAUDEL, MD (0147595965 ext. 33, benoist.chibaudel@ihfb.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

response rate (time frame: 4 months). 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 NCT04189055, which also lists 9 linked publications.

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 12 Jun 2023.
