About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Oxaliplatin and Gemcitabine Followed by Radiation Therapy in the Management of Mixed Mullerian Tumors of the Uterus

The purpose of this research study is to determine the feasibility and safety of giving the combination of oxaliplatin and gemcitabine followed by radiation therapy and to learn whether or not this drug combined with radiation therapy works in treating women with Mullerian tumors of the uterus.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary To determine the feasibility of dual modality therapy described as cytotoxic therapy followed by radiation therapy for the management of Malignant Mixed Mullerian Tumors (MMMTs).

Secondary

  • To describe the response rate by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors

STATISTICAL DESIGN:

This study used a two-stage design to evaluate feasibility of oxaliplatin and gemcitabine prior to radiation therapy defined as completing 3 cycles of chemotherapy. The null and alternative therapy completion rates were 25% and 50%. If 3 or more participants enrolled in the stage one cohort (n=9 participants) complete therapy than accrual would proceed to stage two (n=15 participants). If therapy was completed by at least 10 participants in the final set of 24 evaluable participants then this regimen would be deemed worthy of further study. This design had 80% power given one-sided type I error of 5% with the probability of stopping early 0.60.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT00476086
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Oxaliplatin/ Gemcitabine Then RadiationExperimentalPatients rcvd IV chemotherapy on days 1 and 15 of a 4-week cycle: gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 and oxaliplatin 65 mg/m2 for up to 3 cycles. Two dose reductions per study drug were permitted. On study, chemotherapy was followed by radiation therapy (RT) within 4-6 weeks of last chemotherapy. RT regimen was tumor-volume directed.
Receives: Drug: Gemcitabine; Drug: Oxaliplatin; Radiation: Radiation

What is being measured

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

  1. Chemotherapy Completion Rate

    Feasibility in this study was based on the chemotherapy regimen. The chemotherapy completion rate is defined as the percentage of patients who complete 3 cycles of oxaliplatin and gemcitabine chemotherapy prior to radiation therapy.

    Measured: 3 cycles of chemotherapy which approximates 3 months given the 28-day cycle

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Radiation Therapy Completion Rate

    Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and every X cycles on treatment; Treatment continued if radiological exam showed no progressive disease

    Measured: Radiation therapy was within 4-6 weeks of last chemotherapy dose. Participants received up to 5 weeks of radiation therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Gemcitabine, Oxaliplatin and Radiation in people with Mixed Mullerian Tumors of the Uterus, run by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at 2 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 7 inclusion and 11 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 24 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 13 Apr 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?

Chemotherapy Completion Rate (time frame: 3 cycles of chemotherapy which approximates 3 months given the 28-day cycle). 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 24 Aug 2018.
