About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Lapatinib and Capectiabine for Patients With Refractory Advanced Colorectal Adenocarcinoma (LAP109859)

The purpose of this study is to find out how effective this combination is as a second line treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread from one part of the body to another (metastasized) or has not metastasized but is considered inoperable (unable to be removed by surgery). The side effects and survival experienced by subjects receiving these drugs will also be evaluated. This is a phase II research study.

Read the detailed description
  1. To evaluate the response rate of lapatinib and capecitabine combination in patients with metastatic colon or rectal cancer.
  2. To evaluate the toxicity and tolerability of lapatinib and capecitabine in this population.
  3. To determine overall survival and disease free survival of lapatinib and capecitabine.
Being tested
lapatinib, Capecitabine
Medical subject headings
Colorectal Neoplasms

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing lapatinib and Capecitabine in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison at 1 site 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 9 inclusion and 15 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 18 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 14 Jul 2015). 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?

Response Rate of Lapatinib/Capecitabine. (time frame: duration of study; on average 1 year). 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 18 Dec 2019.
