Trial summary

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of a Weekly Schedule of BMS-247550 for Patients With Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine the effect on percent with a 50% decrease in PSA response in patients with metastatic prostate cancer who have progressed on androgen ablation therapy and are classified into 1 of 3 separate categories:
  2. Never received prior chemotherapy/cytotoxic therapy
  3. Received prior taxane-based regimen
  4. Received 2 prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens (including, but not limited to, prior taxane and anthracyclines)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine measurable disease response in patients with measurable disease treated with this drug and overall response rate.

II. Determine the toxic effects of this drug in these patients. III. Determine the duration of PSA and measurable disease response in patients treated with this drug.

IV. Determine the expression of p53, multidrug resistance protein, and Bcl-2 by immunohistochemistry in the primary tumors of patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to prior chemotherapy (none vs 1 prior taxane-containing regimen vs 2 prior cytotoxic regimens).

Patients receive ixabepilone IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

Receives: Drug: ixabepilone

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of Patients With PSA Response

    PSA response is defined as a decline from baseline value by >=50%, or normalization of PSA (PSA < 0.2 ng/lm), confirmed by a second measurement >= 4 weeks later. The proportion of patients with PSA response was reported separately for 3 strata. Additional patients accrued to this study were not included in this analysis.

    Measured: Every 4 weeks during treatment; then every 3 months if <2 years from study entry; then every 6 months if 2-5 years from study entry

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Proportion of Patients With Measurable Disease Response (Best Overall Response)

    Only patients with measurable disease were included in this analysis. The proportion of patients with measurable disease response (based on RECIST: Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) was reported separately for 3 strata.

    Per RECIST criteria, Complete response (CR)= disappearance of all target and nontarget lesions Partial response (PR)= >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions from baseline, and persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) and/or the maintenance of tumor marker level above the normal limits.

    Objective response = CR + PR

    Measured: Every 8 weeks during treatment; then every 3 months if <2 years from study entry; then every 6 months if 2-5 years from study entry

  2. Duration of PSA Response

    Duration of PSA response was defined as the time from the date of onset of PSA response until the date the criteria were met for PSA progression. Only patients with a PSA response were included in this analysis. The results were reported separately for 3 strata.

    Measured: Every 4 weeks during treatment; then every 3 months if <2 years from study entry; then every 6 months if 2-5 years from study entry

  3. Duration of Measurable Disease Response

    Duration of measurable disease response was defined as the time from the date when measurement criteria were met for complete or partial response, whichever status was recorded first, until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease was objectively documented based on RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors). Only patients with measurable disease response were included in this analysis.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks during treatment; then every 3 months if <2 years from study entry; then every 6 months if 2-5 years from study entry

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ixabepilone in people with Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate and Recurrent Prostate Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 162 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 47 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 9 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 162 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Dec 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Proportion of Patients With PSA Response (time frame: Every 4 weeks during treatment; then every 3 months if <2 years from study entry; then every 6 months if 2-5 years from study entry). 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 9 May 2014.
