Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to evaluate if aflibercept can reduce the chance that metastatic (spread of) colorectal cancer can grow back after finishing standard treatment. The study will also look at the side effects of aflibercept and the effect on quality of life.
The Primary Phase I objectives are to determine the recommended phase II dose for the capecitabine and aflibercept doublet combination; and to describe any dose limiting and non-dose limiting toxicities. The Phase II Primary objective is to determine progression free survival associated with this regimen. The Phase II secondary objectives are to determine response rate associated with this regimen; to determine overall survival associated with this regimen; and to explore any correlation of clinical outcome with baseline and on treatment changes in blood-based angiogenesis biomarkers. This open-label, non-randomized phase I/II trial is designed to assess the safety, tolerability and RPTD of capecitabine plus aflibercept in adult subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer.
To ensure the appropriate administration of Vectibix for the treatment of mCRC with wild-type KRAS in real-world practice, it is important to understand the awareness of practicing oncologists regarding the correct indication and appropriate administration of Vectibix. It is also critical to monitor changes in oncologists' awareness and practice between the different rounds of the study.
The purpose of this study is to describe the diagnostic and treatment procedures employed for patients with rectal cancer in each participating center. Outcomes to treatment, costs of treatment will be described. Exploratory analyses will be done to identify factor that influence patient prognosis, as well as factors that predict patient response to treatment.
The purpose of this study is to describe the treatments received and outcomes of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, what percentage of these patients have K-Ras mutation of the tumor, and to describe the costs of treatments. Information will also be collected regarding risk factors, variables among treatment centers and patients, and explorative analyses will be done to try to identify factors that impact prognosis and factors that predict tolerability and response to treatment.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate FOLFOX + bevacizumab versus FOLFOXIRI + bevacizumab as first line treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer not previously treated and with three or more circulating tumoral cells.
This study aims to use the corresponding pharmacogenetic analysis to increase the dose of irinotecan in the schemes commonly used standard chemotherapy in advanced colorectal cancer treatment first. The project aims to improve the therapeutic index of chemotherapy. This optimization is raised based on the administration of different doses of the drug depending on the genotype UGT1A1 gene. The research team proposes this project to demonstrate how the administration of high doses of irinotecan in the FOLFIRI scheme in patients with genotype UGT1A1 favorable (wild homozygous * 1 / * 1 and heterozygous * 1 / * 28), significantly improves the efficiency of the antineoplastic agent without significant increase in toxicity. Secondarily will assess the possible prognostic factors related to tolerance and efficacy. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of high doses of irinotecan in the FOLFIRI scheme in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with a favorable genotype UGT1A1 (wild homozygous * 1 / * 1 and heterozygous * 1 / * 28).
The goal of this clinical study is to determine the dosing and safety of labetuzumab govitecan (formerly known as IMMU-130; hMN-14-SN38, antibody-drug conjugate) in participants with colorectal cancer.
Treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer needs chemotherapy in most of the cases. During these last years, many new chemotherapies and targeted therapies have been developed improving significantly the overall survival of patients. However, the choice of the therapeutic sequences becomes difficult due to the lack of validated predictive biomarkers of their efficiency. Indeed, only the mutation of the k-ras oncogene is a predictive factor of non-efficacy of the anti-EGFR antibodies. It is thus crucial to identify new biomarkers to propose the best personalized 1rst line therapeutic sequence. One idea would be to enumerate and characterize the circulating tumor cells (CTC) which, as it has been described in a recent study realized by Cohen et al. in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, would give us an early evaluation of the therapeutic efficiency. In this context, the investigators have developed an innovative technology, the EPISPOT assay (patent of the University Medical Center of Montpellier), that allows the detection & characterization of viable CTC in the peripheral blood. The EPISPOT technology has been already evaluated in the breast and prostate cancer. Thus, the investigators would like to perform a prospective study on a cohort of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer to confirm, with this technology, the predictive value of CTC count for the efficacy of the treatment.
For the first phase of this study (phase I), the purpose will be to find the dose of a new drug, BKM120, that can safely be given in combination with standard dose panitumumab. For the second phase of this study (phase II), the purpose is to find out what effects the combination of BKM120 and panitumumab, in doses found to be safe in the first part of the study, has on patients and their colorectal cancer.
