About this study

Official title: A PHASE I STUDY OF PELVIC RADIATION THERAPY WITH CONCOMITANT WEEKLY CISPLATIN AND TOPOTECAN CHEMOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH CERVICAL CARCINOMA WITHOUT EXTRA-PELVIC METASTASIS

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best way to give radiation therapy when given together with topotecan and cisplatin in treating patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. This trial is also studying the best dose of topotecan when given in this regimen. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan and cisplatin, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of pelvic radiotherapy, cisplatin, and topotecan in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer.

II. Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of topotecan when administered in this regimen in this patient population.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the site of recurrence (local vs distant) in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study of topotecan.

Patients undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Patients receive cisplatin IV and topotecan IV over 30 minutes once weekly for a total of 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of topotecan until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which 1 of 6 patients experiences dose-limiting toxicity. Once the MTD is determined, an additional cohort of 20 patients receives treatment as above at the MTD.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for 5 years.

Being tested

  2. Incidence of patients with chronic toxicity assessed by Common Toxicity Criteria Radiation Therapy Oncology Group/European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (CTC RTOG/EORTC)

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Site of treatment failure

    Identified as local versus distant.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Topotecan Hydrochloride Liposomes, 3-Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy and Cisplatin in people with Cervical Adenocarcinoma and Cervical Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by Gynecologic Oncology Group at 10 sites in United States.

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 28 inclusion and 0 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of patients with acute toxicity assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0 (time frame: Up to 30 days after completion of radiation therapy). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 31 Dec 2014.
