About this study

Official title: A Phase II Safety and Efficacy Study With the VEGF Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor GW786034 in Patients With Metastatic Urothelial Cancer

This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well pazopanib works in treating patients with metastatic urothelial cancer. Pazopanib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Assess the anti tumor activity and toxicity profile of pazopanib hydrochloride in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of pazopanib hydrochloride in these patients. II. Evaluate pre- and post-treatment changes in circulating endothelial cells, monocytes and platelets, and angiogenesis-related factors in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive oral pazopanib hydrochloride once daily on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients undergo blood collection periodically for correlative studies and pharmacological studies. Samples are analyzed for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and soluble VEGF receptor II concentration via ELISA. Circulating endothelial cells are also measured.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Best Tumor Response (Complete [CR] or Partial Response [PR] by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST])

    Tumor response is defined as the total number of eligible patients whose disease has a complete or partial response to GW786034 according to the RECIST criteria. Per RECIST v1.0 criteria:

    A Complete Response (CR) requires the disappearance of all target lesions.

    A Partial Response (PR) requires >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions from baseline measurement.

    All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a consent form and have begun treatment will be evaluable for response.

    Measured: Participants will be evaluated every 8 weeks during treatment and up to 1 year after completion of treatment.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Adverse Events Using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.0

    The maximum grade for each adverse event considered to be at least possibly related to treatment will be recorded. Frequency tables will be constructed.

    Measured: Every 4 weeks during treatment (maximum duration was 44 weeks)

  2. Confirmed Tumor Response (CR and PR)

    Tumor response is defined as the total number of eligible patients whose disease has a complete or partial response to GW786034 according to the RECIST criteria. A confirmed response is defined as a CR or PR and is documented on 2 consecutive evaluations.

    Measured: Documented on 2 consecutive evaluations 8 weeks apart from the start of the treatment until disease progression/recurrence, assessed up to 1 year

  3. Duration of Response

    The distribution of response durations will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: From the time an objective response is first noted to be either a CR or PR to the date progression is documented, assessed up to 1 year

  4. Time to Disease Progression

    The distribution of progression-free survival times will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Every 3 months from registration until progressive disease (PD), assessed up to 2 years after registration

  5. Survival Time

    The distribution of survival times will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Time from registration until death due to any cause, assessed every 6 months after PD for up to 2 years after registration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing pazopanib hydrochloride in people with Distal Urethral Cancer and Proximal Urethral Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 9 sites in 3 countries.

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 59 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 30 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 9 sites in United States, China, South Korea. 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 21 Mar 2013). 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?

Best Tumor Response (Complete [CR] or Partial Response [PR] by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST]) (time frame: Participants will be evaluated every 8 weeks during treatment and up to 1 year after completion of treatment.). 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 30 May 2014.
