Trial summary

Digestive carcinomas chemotherapies regimen are mostly based on fluoropyrimidine drugs (5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) or capecitabine). 5-FU is mainly catabolised by dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) and partial or complete DPD deficiency can cause severe adverse reactions. Read more about this study

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients will be included in this retrospective study if they have digestive cancer and an uracil dosage performed between February 2018 to January 2020, and if they received at least one cycle of fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy in one of the three oncology departments (Hopital Edouard Heriot [Lyon], Centre Hospitalier de Lyon Sud [Lyon], Hopital de la Croix Rousse [Lyon]. The following characteristics will be review: histology, stage (localized vs metastatic disease), chemotherapy regimen, dose percentage of fluoropyrimidine, fluoropyrimidine induced-toxicity, time to failure and overall survival.

About this study

Digestive carcinomas chemotherapies regimen are mostly based on fluoropyrimidine drugs (5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) or capecitabine). 5-FU is mainly catabolised by dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) and partial or complete DPD deficiency can cause severe adverse reactions. Different strategies have been proposed to predict DPD deficiency; the two main approaches are phenotyping the enzyme activity (directly or indirectly), or genotyping the four main polymorphisms associated with 5-FU-toxicity. In February 2018, the French medicines agency (Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé, ANSM) recommended DPD genotyping for all patients receiving fluoropyrimidine-based treatment to improve its safety as compared to the European Medicines Agency (EMA)13 and others pharmacogenetics working group.

In December 2018, a new guideline from the French cancer institute (Institut National Du Cancer, INCa) and the French health authority (Haute Autorité de Santé, HAS) recommended the measurement of the uracil blood level before genotyping DPD and dose adaptation if this level is greater than 16 ng/mL. The aim herein is to assess how this recommendation has been implemented in clinical routine. 5-FU displays a dose-response relationship regarding both its efficacy and its toxicity, did tailored-dose impair the treatment efficacy as it decreased the risk of toxicity? To address that matter we conducted a retrospective study to evaluate how fluoropyrimidine dosage is adapted to uracil concentration with an emphasis on how patients outcome were affected. We compared time to failure and overall survival between patients with an uracil concentration < 16 ng/mL and > or = 16 ng/mL.

What participants receive

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

  • Fluoropyrimidine treatment (5-FU or capecitabine) and dosageDrug

    In each group with an uracil dosage; at cycle 1; capecitabine or continuous 5-FU dose percentage will be evaluate retrospectively in our database

  • Uracil dosageOther

    For each patient, uracil concentration will be evaluate and patients will be compared based on 16 ng/mL as threshold.

  • Overall survivalBehavioural

    For each group of patient, on 16 ng/mL as threshold for uracil concentration, overall survival will be compared betwen the two groups of patients (Uracil <16 vs Uracil ≥16).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Digestive Carcinoma, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 3 sites in France.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Overall survival according to plasma uracil concentration (time frame: Last completion date March 30th 2021). 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 8 Jun 2021.
