Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as docetaxel work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Giving docetaxel with imatinib mesylate may kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Crossover From Docetaxel and Placebo to Docetaxel and Imatinib in Patients With Androgen-Independent Prostate Cancer With Bone Metastases: Extension Trial to ID03-0008

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as docetaxel work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Giving docetaxel with imatinib mesylate may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel with imatinib mesylate works in treating patients with androgen-independent prostate cancer and bone metastases that progressed while receiving docetaxel and a placebo on clinical trial MDA-ID-030008.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Provide treatment with docetaxel and imatinib mesylate for patients with androgen-independent prostate cancer and bone metastases that progressed while receiving docetaxel and placebo on MDA-ID-030008.

Secondary

  • Determine the response rate and time to progression in these patients after crossover from docetaxel and placebo to docetaxel and imatinib mesylate.
  • Compare the modulation of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor pathway by docetaxel and imatinib mesylate vs docetaxel and placebo in the same patient.
  • Determine the quality of life of patients treated with this crossover regimen.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, crossover, multicenter, extension study. Patients who progressed on the placebo and docetaxel arm of MDA-ID-030008 crossover to receive docetaxel and imatinib mesylate.

Patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 and oral imatinib mesylate once daily on days 1-42. Courses repeat every 42 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Quality of life is assessed at baseline, before each therapy course, and at the completion of therapy.

Patients are followed for 30 days.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 72 patients will be accrued for this study within 9 months.

Being tested
Docetaxel, Imatinib mesylate

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Treatment efficacy

    Measured: 12 weeks after initiation of crossover therapy

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time to progression

    Time of progression was defined as the time of appearance of symptoms attributable to disease progression, the first demonstrated clinical sign or radiological evidence of disease progression, or the time of first of consecutive prostate-specific antigen (PSA) increments that achieved 25% increase over baseline or nadir (or death during the study), whichever was earliest.

    Measured: From registration to disease progression, up to 32 months

  2. Response rate

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel and Imatinib mesylate in people with Metastatic Cancer and Prostate Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 3 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Treatment efficacy (time frame: 12 weeks after initiation of crossover therapy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00084825, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Oct 2012.
