Stage IV Esophageal Cancer Clinical Trial
Official title:
Phase II Study of Pralatrexate and Docetaxel in Patients With Advanced Esophageal and Gastroesophageal Carcinoma Who Have Failed Prior Platinum-based Therapy.
RATIONALE: Pralatrexate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes
needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different
ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from
dividing. Giving pralatrexate together with docetaxel may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving pralatrexate together with
docetaxel works in treating patients with stage IV esophageal or gastroesophageal cancer who
have failed platinum-based therapy.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Overall Response | Response was determined using RECIST criteria | Approximately three years | No |
Secondary | Progression-free Survival (PFS) | PFS was calculated from the date of start of therapy to disease progression or death, whichever occured first. | Approximately three years | No |
Secondary | Overall Survival (OS) | OS was determined from the date of start of therapy to death frm any cause. | Approximately five years | No |
Secondary | Correlation of FDG PET Response With Response Rate | Radiological assessment of tumor response was performed by computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) every four cycles of therapy and responses were measured according to RECIST and PERCIST criteria. | Approximately three years | No |
