About this study

Official title: A Phase II Single Arm Clinical Study of Treprilimab in the Treatment of Local Recurrent/Residual Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma After Re-irradiation

To establish the antitumor activity and safety of the anti-programmed death 1 receptor monoclonal antibody, Treprilimab, in patients with local recurrent/residual nasopharyngeal carcinoma after re-irradiation.Patients with local recurrent/residual NPC after re-irradiation were treated with Treprilimab until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) and secondary end points included survival and toxicity.The sample size of this study was estimated on the assumption that response rates (RRs) to Treprilimab should be around 25%,based on a report that was available at the time this study was planned.Furthermore, the RR to noncytotoxic, experimental agents such as pazopanib and cetuximab in similarly pretreated patient cohorts was approximately 5% to 10%. This study's design was based on the modified Simon two-stage optimal design (α=0.05,β=0.2,n1=2/22,n2=7/40). If two responses were observed during the first stage, enrollment was continued until a total of 40 patients was reached.

This study's design was based on the modified Simon two-stage optimal design (α=0.05,β=0.2,n1=2/22,n2=7/40). If two responses were observed during the first stage, enrollment was continued until a total of 40 patients was reached. The target lesions had to be measurable by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Radiologic assessments were performed every 8 weeks for 6 months and then every 12 weeks thereafter. Eligible patients were treated with Treprilimab at a dosage of 240mg intravenously every 3 weeks until they experienced disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point of this study was objective response by the RECIST criteria , and the secondary end points were overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response and toxicity.

What is being measured

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

  1. objective response rate

    the proportion of patients with confirmed complete response or partial response (PR) per RECIST v1.1

    Measured: Response was assessed by magnetic resonance imaging every 8 weeks for the first 6 months and every 12 weeks thereafter.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. PFS

    progression free survival

    Measured: time from enrollment to the first documented progression of disease or death from any cause)

  2. OS

    overall survival

    Measured: time from enrollment to death from any cause

  3. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events

    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: through the study and for 30 days after treatment discontinuation (90 days for serious AEs).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Treprilimab in people with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Sun Yat-sen University.

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 9 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 1 Sep 2020. 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 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 Fei Han, MD (+8613822113698, hanfei@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

objective response rate (time frame: Response was assessed by magnetic resonance imaging every 8 weeks for the first 6 months and every 12 weeks thereafter.). 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 NCT04534855, which also lists 4 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 1 Sep 2020.
