About this study

Official title: Toripalimab Plus Etoposide and Platinum-based Chemotherapy in First-line Treatment of Locally Advanced or Metastatic Genitourinary Small Cell Carcinoma:A Multicenter, Prospective, Open Label, Single-arm, Phase II Study

This study is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm phase II clinical trial. A single-arm experimental group of toripalimab, etoposide, and cisplatin/carboplatin was designed to evaluate its efficacy and safety in small cell carcinoma of the urinary system.

Read the detailed description

This study focuses on patients with locally advanced/metastatic genitourinary small cell carcinoma (small cell carcinoma originating in the kidney, ureter, bladder, urethra, and prostate), and it aims to explore the efficacy and safety of toripalimab combined with EP or EC.

After meeting the enrollment conditions, they received combination therapy: toripalimab 240 mg, administered on the first day of each cycle, and a cycle of administration every 3 weeks. Etoposide 100mg/m2, d1-3, cisplatin 25mg/m2, d1-3 or carboplatin AUC=5 d1, administered on the first day of each cycle, a cycle of administration every 3 weeks. Toripalimab combined with etoposide and cisplatin/carboplatin was used for 4 to 6 courses of treatment. Evaluate the curative effect with imaging every 2 courses. If there is an opportunity for local treatment after chemotherapy, participate in multidisciplinary discussions to decide the next step of treatment. For patients who can be treated with local treatment (surgery, radiotherapy) after treatment, the investigator will receive maintenance treatment with toripalimab 240 mg/time, every 21 days, until the disease progresses or unacceptable toxicity occurs. If the curative effect evaluation of the patient is complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR) or stable disease (SD) after 4 to 6 courses of treatment, maintenance therapy with toripalimab 240mg/time, every 21 days, until the disease progression or intolerable toxicity. The maximum duration of maintenance treatment is 2 years. Subjects who finished treatment entered the follow-up period and received safety follow-up and survival follow-up.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the date of the first dose to the earlier of the dates of the first objective documentation of radiographic progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause.

    Measured: Within approximately 36 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Complete Response Rate (CRR)

    Percentage of participants with response reported as complete response

    Measured: Within approximately 36 months

  2. Duration of Response (DOR)

    Duration of response was defined as the time interval between the date of first documentation of objective response (CR or PR) and the date of the first objective documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause.

    Measured: Within approximately 36 months

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The number of participants with objective response is assessed every six weeks from Cycle 1 Day 1 through discontinuation of treatment. Objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of participants who achieved a best overall response of complete response or partial response based on local radiologists/investigators' tumor assessments.

    Measured: Within approximately 36 months

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from the date of first dose to the date of death from any cause.

    Measured: Within approximately 36 months

  5. Incidence of Treatment-related Adverse Events

    Incidence of Treatment-related Adverse Events as assessed by the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, Version 5.0).

    Measured: Within approximately 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing EP/EC+PD-1 in people with Toripalimab and First-line Treatment, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site 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 14 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 8 Mar 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 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 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 Yanxia Shi (020-87343368, shiyx@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: Within approximately 36 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 8 Mar 2023.
