Study Of FOLFIRI Chemotherapy With Or Without Sunitinib In Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomised, Double-Blind, Phase 3 Study Of Sunitinib In Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Patients Receiving Irinotecan, 5-Fluorouracil And Leucovorin (FOLFIRI) As First Line Treatment

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of FOLFIRI (Irinotecan, Leucovorin and 5 Fluorouracil) chemotherapy when combined with sunitinib or FOLFIRI chemotherapy without adding sunitinib as the first line treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Clinical Trial Description

On June 25, 2009, the independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) reviewed the progress of Study A6181122. The DMC determined Study A6181122 had met pre-specified futility criteria and was unlikely to meet its primary endpoint to demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) in patients treated with sunitinib plus FOLFIRI versus placebo plus FOLFIRI. No new safety findings were noted. Pfizer notified clinical trial investigators involved in the study and regulatory agencies of these findings. Patients receiving benefit on treatment as determined by the investigator may remain on study. ;
