About this study
Official title: A Phase I/II Trial of a Combination of Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab With Daily Irradiation or Paclitaxel Alone With Daily Irradiation Following Transurethral Surgery for Non-Cystectomy Candidates With Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects of giving paclitaxel together with radiation therapy with or without trastuzumab and to see how well it works to kill any remaining tumor cells in patients who have undergone surgery for bladder cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Paclitaxel may also make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving paclitaxel together with radiation therapy and trastuzumab may kill more tumor cells. Giving these treatments after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- To determine the acute toxicity (=< 90 days from protocol treatment start) from chemoradiotherapy including paclitaxel +/- trastuzumab and irradiation in non-cystectomy patients with or without her2/neu overexpression.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To determine the ability of patients with bladder cancer who are non-cystectomy candidates to complete this treatment program.
II. To evaluate the efficacy of this treatment program in achieving a complete response of the primary tumor.
III. To measure the 5-year disease-free and overall survival of patients with bladder cancer treated with transurethral resection of the bladder followed by chemoradiotherapy.
IV. To estimate the value of tumor and/or serum biomarkers as predictors of initial tumor response and recurrence-free survival.
OUTLINE: This is a non-randomized, multicenter study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups according to HER2/neu status (HER2/neu 2+ or 3+ staining [group 1] vs HER2/neu 0 or 1+ staining [group 2]).
GROUP I: Patients receive paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43 and trastuzumab (Herceptin®) IV over 90 minutes on day 1 and then over 30 minutes on days 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43. Patients also undergo radiotherapy once daily on days 1-5, 8-12, 15-19, 22-26, 29-33, 36-40, 43-47, and 50. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
GROUP II: Patients receive paclitaxel and undergo radiotherapy as in group 1.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 4-5 weeks, every 3 months for 1 year, every 4 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Acute Treatment-related Toxicity
In each group, the number of patients was tabulated by type and grade (gr) of treatment-related toxicity (CTCAE v3.0). Only the following types of toxicity within 90 days of treatment start were considered: ≥ gr4 neutropenia, ≥ gr4 febrile neutropenia, ≥ gr3 diarrhea, ≥ gr3 nausea/vomiting, ≥ gr3 thrombocytopenia, ≥ gr3 renal, pulmonary, hepatic, or neurologic toxicity, ≥ gr3 rectal or genitourinary bleeding, ≥ gr3 left ventricular failure, or ≥ gr2 other cardiac toxicity. The study was designed to estimate the rate of acute treatment-related toxicity separately in each group of patients. Using the Fleming's one-sample multiple test procedure with Type I and II errors each set at 10%, 40 cases/group were required to reject the null hypothesis that the true toxicity rate is greater than 25% in favor of the alternative hypothesis that the true rate is no more than 10%. Six or more patients with the designated toxicities out of 40 would result in rejecting the null hypothesis.
Measured: From start of protocol treatment to 90 days
Secondary outcomes (4)
Treatment Completion
The number of patients within each group who completed all elements of protocol treatment are reported.
Measured: From registration to end of treatment; up to 64 days."
Complete Response to Treatment
The number of patients within each group who achieved a complete response to protocol treatment by 12 weeks are reported. Complete response is defined as no gross tumor at cystoscopy or negative biopsies or both by week 12 after completion of protocol treatment.
Measured: At 12 weeks from treatment start
Progression-free Survival
Disease (failure) is defined as any bladder cancer progression determined by all measures of disease including physical exam, imaging, and biopsies. Disease-free survival time is defined as time from treatment start to the date of first progression, death, or last known follow-up (censored). Disease-free survival rates are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Analysis occurred after all patients had been on study for at least 5 years. This is a non-randomized phase I/II trial in which the two patient groups are not compared.
Measured: From start of treatment to last follow-up. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 9.9 years.
Overall Survival
Overall survival time is defined as time from treatment start to the date of death from any cause or last known follow-up (censored). Overall survival rates are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Analysis occurred after all patients had been on study for at least 5 years. This is a non-randomized phase I/II trial in which the two patient groups are not compared.
Measured: From the date of treatment started to death, assessed up to at least 5 years

- To determine the ability of patients with bladder cancer who are non-cystectomy candidates to complete this treatment program.
II. To evaluate the efficacy of this treatment program in achieving a complete response of the primary tumor.
III. To measure the 5-year disease-free and overall survival of patients with bladder cancer treated with transurethral resection of the bladder followed by chemoradiotherapy.
IV. To estimate the value of tumor and/or serum biomarkers as predictors of initial tumor response and recurrence-free survival.
OUTLINE: This is a non-randomized, multicenter study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups according to HER2/neu status (HER2/neu 2+ or 3+ staining [group 1] vs HER2/neu 0 or 1+ staining [group 2]).
GROUP I: Patients receive paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43 and trastuzumab (Herceptin®) IV over 90 minutes on day 1 and then over 30 minutes on days 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43. Patients also undergo radiotherapy once daily on days 1-5, 8-12, 15-19, 22-26, 29-33, 36-40, 43-47, and 50. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
GROUP II: Patients receive paclitaxel and undergo radiotherapy as in group 1.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 4-5 weeks, every 3 months for 1 year, every 4 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

Primary outcome
Acute Treatment-related Toxicity
Time frame: From start of protocol treatment to 90 days
In each group, the number of patients was tabulated by type and grade (gr) of treatment-related toxicity (CTCAE v3.0). Only the following types of toxicity within 90 days of treatment start were considered: ≥ gr4 neutropenia, ≥ gr4 febrile neutropenia, ≥ gr3 diarrhea, ≥ gr3 nausea/vomiting, ≥ gr3 thrombocytopenia, ≥ gr3 renal, pulmonary, hepatic, or neurologic toxicity, ≥ gr3 rectal or genitourinary bleeding, ≥ gr3 left ventricular failure, or ≥ gr2 other cardiac toxicity. The study was designed to estimate the rate of acute treatment-related toxicity separately in each group of patients. Using the Fleming's one-sample multiple test procedure with Type I and II errors each set at 10%, 40 cases/group were required to reject the null hypothesis that the true toxicity rate is greater than 25% in favor of the alternative hypothesis that the true rate is no more than 10%. Six or more patients with the designated toxicities out of 40 would result in rejecting the null hypothesis.

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 combined 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.
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 23 May 2016). 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?
Acute Treatment-related Toxicity (time frame: From start of protocol treatment to 90 days). 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 NCT00238420, which also lists 1 linked publication.
