About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Trial of Ribociclib (LEE011) and Letrozole in ER Positive Relapsed Ovarian Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer, Primary Peritoneal Carcinomas, and Endometrial Cancers.

This phase II trial studies how well ribociclib and letrozole work in treating patients with estrogen receptor (ER) positive ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal, or endometrial cancer that has returned (come back) after a period of improvement. Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some enzymes needed for cell growth. Cancer cells that are estrogen receptor positive may need estrogen to grow. Letrozole lowers the amount of estrogen made by the body and this may stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. Giving ribociclib together with letrozole may be an effective treatment in patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal, or endometrial cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Demonstrate if the combination of letrozole and ribociclib (LEE011) leads to a higher percentage of patients who are progression free at 12 weeks (PFS 12) as compared with that observed in prior studies with single agent letrozole.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Demonstrate if the combination of letrozole and ribociclib (LEE011) leads to a higher cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) response rate in patients with relapsed ER positive ovarian cancers and endometrial cancers as compared to that observed in previously reported single agent letrozole studies.

II. Median progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), the confirmed response rate, and adverse events.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Identify molecular biomarkers associated with a response to treatment with letrozole and ribociclib (LEE011) (in patients with relapsed ovarian carcinomas and endometrial cancers).

II. Develop patient derived xenograft (PDX) avatars on tumors from participants for possible future translational study evaluating a potential correlation between responses in the PDX model to patients' responses.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive ribociclib orally (PO) daily and letrozole PO daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3-6 months for 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Patients Alive and Free of Progression at 12 Weeks (PFS12)

    The percentage of patients who are progression-free at 12 weeks (PFS12) is defined as patients who are alive and progression free at 12 weeks. Progression is defined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions. The median and 95% confidence intervals are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.

    Measured: At 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)

  1. Progression-free Survival

    Progression free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the date of registration to the date of disease progression or death resulting from any cause, whichever comes first. Progression is defined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The median and 95% confidence intervals are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.

    Measured: From registration to the first of either disease progression or death from any cause, assessed up to 2 years

  2. Overall Survival

    Overall survival time is defined as the time from registration to death due to any cause. The median and 95% confidence intervals are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.

    Measured: From registration to death from any cause, assessed up to 2 years

  3. The Number of Patients With CA-125 Response

    The number of patients with CA-125 response, defined as a 50% or greater reduction in baseline CA-125.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  4. The Number of Patients With Confirmed Response (Complete Response or Partial Response)

    The number of patients with confirmed response (complete response or partial response) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  5. The Number of Treatment-related Grade 3 or Higher Adverse Events

    The number of treatment-related Grade 3 or higher adverse events using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0

    Measured: Up to 30 days post-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Laboratory Biomarker Analysis, Letrozole and Ribociclib in people with Estrogen Receptor Positive and Postmenopausal, run by Mayo Clinic at 3 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 24 inclusion and 31 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 26 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 18 Oct 2019). 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?

Percentage of Patients Alive and Free of Progression at 12 Weeks (PFS12) (time frame: At 12 weeks). 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 NCT02657928, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Oct 2021.
