About this study

Official title: A Phase I Evaluation of Extended Field Radiation Therapy With Concomitant Cisplatin Chemotherapy Followed by Paclitaxel and Carboplatin Chemotherapy in Women With Cervical Carcinoma Metastatic to the Para-aortic Lymph Nodes

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of paclitaxel and carboplatin after cisplatin and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage IB-IVA cervical cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving paclitaxel and carboplatin after cisplatin and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) of adjuvant carboplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy following concurrent weekly cisplatin chemotherapy and extended field radiation in women with newly diagnosed stage IB-IVA cervical cancer, with positive para-aortic nodes.

II. To determine the feasibility of the treatment regimen over the four cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy once the MTD is estimated.

III. To assess the toxicities of the treatment regimen the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the response rate to this treatment regimen in patients with measurable disease.

II. To examine progression-free survival for one year on this treatment regimen.

III. To examine overall survival. IV. To examine the location of recurrence, loco-regional versus distant for one year after completion of therapy.

  1. To estimate the frequency of chronic toxicities experienced within one year of study entry.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of carboplatin and paclitaxel.

Patients receive cisplatin intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36 and undergo extended-field radiotherapy daily 5 days a week for 6 weeks followed by brachytherapy. Beginning 4-6 weeks after completion of chemoradiation, patients receive adjuvant chemotherapy comprising paclitaxel IV over 3 hours and carboplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up every 3 months for 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. MTD of adjuvant carboplatin and paclitaxel determined based on the dose-limiting toxicities assessed by NCI CTCAE version 4

    Measured: 21 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Objective tumor response rate in patients enrolled with measurable disease

    Will be tabulated overall.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier plots.

    Measured: Time from study entry to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first, assessed at 1 year

  3. Overall survival

    Survival will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier plots.

    Measured: Time from study entry to time of death or the date of last contact, assessed up to 1 year

  4. Location of recurrence (loco-regional versus distant) defined as newly evident disease for patients who have no evidence of disease at baseline or progressive disease for patients who have strictly non-measurable disease at baseline

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  5. Chronic toxicities experienced classified using the CTCAE version 4

    Measured: Within 1 year of study entry

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Carboplatin, Cisplatin and External Beam Radiation Therapy in people with Cervical Adenocarcinoma and Cervical Adenosquamous Carcinoma, run by Gynecologic Oncology Group at 14 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 15 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 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 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.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

MTD of adjuvant carboplatin and paclitaxel determined based on the dose-limiting toxicities assessed by NCI CTCAE version 4 (time frame: 21 days). 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 12 Mar 2019.
