Filter by:This is a multicentric, phase II single-arm study in which KRAS, NRAS and BRAF wild-type, irinotecan-resistant metastatic colorectal cancer patients progressing after an initial response to a first-line cetuximab-containing therapy, receive a rechallenge third-line treatment with cetuximab plus irinotecan.
The purpose of this this trial is to prove the efficacy and safety of MGN1703 as a maintenance therapy after first-line chemotherapeutic treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer.
In recent years, anti-angiogenic agents have been incorporated into clinical practice for the treatment of metastatic CRC, leading to improvements in progression-free survival and overall survival. Regorafenib is an oral multi-kinase inhibitor that targets angiogenic and oncogenic kinases. Although structurally similar to another multi-kinase inhibitor, sorafenib, it appears to be pharmacologically more potent and possesses broader antiangiogenic properties. Both sorafenib and regorafenib target BRAF wild-type and BRAF V600E mutant but the inhibition of p38 MAP kinase is a peculiar characteristic of regorafenib. A Phase I study of regorafenib as a single agent in patients with heavily pretreated CRC showed promising clinical activity with a disease control rate (PR + SD) of 59% in evaluable patients. In the Phase III trial (CORRECT), which was a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study comparing either regorafenib plus best supportive care (BSC) or placebo plus BSC, it was shown that regorafenib significantly increased overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and disease control rate (DCR), independently of KRAS status. A major interest, given the data presented in the CORRECT trial, is to determine predictive biomarkers to indicate patients likely to benefit, or to be resistant to this anti-angiogenic compound. This study aims to determine the efficacy of regorafenib as single-agent treatment for the treatment of second-line metastatic colorectal cancer and to identify predictive biomarkers in the actual metastatic tumors to be treated. In the case of metastatic CRC patients, liver lesions are frequently the most common site of metastatic deposit and these lesions can be biopsied to assess putative biomarkers. Patients will be asked to undergo a biopsy of a metastatic lesion prior to treatment, and an optional liver biopsy at the time of relapse. Using several high-throughput discovery platforms, biomarkers will be identified in the metastatic tumor specimens and in blood samples collected throughout the treatment. This will allow us to evaluate putative biomarkers and monitor tumor biomarker dynamics using serial blood collection. The objectives of this trial are to help identify the patient subgroup most likely to be responsive or resistant to regorafenib, so that future treatment with regorafenib can be directed to the more responsive but as yet identified patient population.
The purpose of this study is to assess if panitumumab is active enough to warrant comparative studies in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer that has progressed after treatment with cetuximab.
This is a follow-on study to the VELOUR trial (NCT00561470). The aim of this study is to acquire the archived colorectal cancer and metastasized tissue tumour blocks of patients who have participated in the VELOUR study. These samples will be analysed to find proteins or markers which represent how an individual may be responding to treatment. The identification of these markers may help provide personalised and more effective treatment programs for patients with similar conditions in the future.
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 this study is to evaluate the benefit of panitumumab in addition to best supportive care compared to best supportive care alone in patients with chemorefractory wild-type KRAS (Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) metastatic colorectal cancer.
The purpose of this study is to see if Panitumumab plus the other treatments will increase the time of remission. Remission means that there is no sign of the cancer.
Trial design: - Phase III, FOLFIRI versus FOLF(HA)iri (the FOLFIRI regimen with "Hyaluronic acid-Irinotecan" or "HA-Irinotecan") regimen. - Patients with mCRC (metastatic colorectal cancer), 2nd/3rd line irinotecan naïve. - Randomized 1:1, double-blinded, multi-centre, multi-national (Australia, Bulgaria, Poland, Serbia, Russia, Ukraine and the United Kingdom). - Dosing regimen: - Irinotecan (180 mg/m2) or HA-Irinotecan (180 mg/m2), IV, over 90 minutes, day 1 (in patients > 75 years of age, the irinotecan and HA-Irinotecan dose in must be reduced to 150 mg/m2). - Leucovorin, 400 mg/m2, or levoleucovorin, 200 mg/m2, IV over 90 minutes with irinotecan. - 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), 400 mg/m2 IV bolus day 1, then 1200 mg/m2/day x 2 days (total 2400 mg/m2 over 46-48 hours) continuous infusion. - Repeat every 2 weeks for 8 months. - Patient accrual over approximately 12-14 months. - Monitoring to 18 months post-randomization. - 390 patients. - Progression Free Survival (PFS) primary endpoint. - Safety analysis on the initial 20 patients.
First line chemotherapy treatment regimens for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) present disease-free survival of more than 10 months, and as much as 12 and 15 months for many patients. It is evident that there are 2 groups of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC): those who progress during first line treatment or in the 6 months following the last chemotherapy infusion and those who progress after this first 6-month period. There are currently no studies evaluating the efficacy of second line chemotherapy regimens according to the duration of response to first line treatment. It seems logical that patients with less aggressive tumours will benefit more from treatments targeting specific proteins, such as panitumumab, due to the shorter duration of these tumours cell cycle, which makes them less sensitive to chemotherapy. This study is therefore justified to determine an increase in activity and control of the disease in patients who progressed after 6 months of the last first line chemotherapy infusion for metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC) in subjects expressing wild-type KRAS.
