General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To estimate the 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) of frail elderly subjects treated with panitumumab as a first-line chemotherapy regimen in subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with non-mutated KRAS.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Throughout the study, the researchers were able to prescribe any medication or concomitant treatment they considered necessary to provide adequate supportive assistance. Topical, oral or intravenous antibiotics were used to treat skin or nail-related toxicities at the discretion of the investigator. For the subjects with anticoagulant treatment, a strict control of the coagulation parameters was recommended during the treatment period of the study. For low white blood cell count, granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) could be used; however in this trial the routine prophylactic use of G-CSF was not recommended. G-CSF for therapeutic purposes in patients with serious neutropenic complications such as tissue infections, sepsis, fungal infections, etc., could be administered at the discretion of the investigator or if it was the standard protocol in the institution. Regional variations were acceptable practice. The epoetins could be used according to the investigator's criteria to treat chemotherapy-induced anemia.
|
||
Background therapy |
It is widely known that frail elderly patients with mCRC are not candidates for chemotherapy due to potential undesirable effects, including the possibility of toxic death, which exceeds the potential benefits in quality of life and survival. The anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody, Panitumumab, has demonstrated efficacy and a manageable safety profile as a monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy (as first- or second-line therapy), for the treatment of mCRC in patients with wild-type (WT) KRAS (exon 2) tumours. In addition, the toxicity profile is moderate when used in monotherapy; the main toxicity occurs in the skin. Finally, because of its pharmacokinetic profile, panitumumab can be administered every 2 weeks, which reduces hospital visits compared to the weekly schedule. Studies of the factors that predict efficacy have shown that patients with non-mutated KRAS can only benefit from an anti-EGFR treatment. | ||

Date |
Amendment |
||
15 Dec 2009 |
After receiving the considerations of the participating Clinical Research Ethical Committees, changes were made in the Information Consent Form of the study as well as in the Information Consent Form of the optional biomarker study, aiming to facilitate their understanding. |
||
29 Jul 2010 |
After the initial visits to the participating centers, it was found that some points of the protocol were not clear enough for the researchers.
With this relevant modification it was clarified the doubts that arose as well as facilitated the work of the health professionals who carried out the study.
1. Permit the analysis of the KRAS gene by local laboratories according to their usual clinical practice, to determine the eligibility of the patients selected to participate in the trial. The reason for this modification was to minimize the delay in the initiation of treatment in patients who had this determination, since in the hospitals of the Spanish territory it is performed by usual clinical practice in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
2. Clarification of inclusion criteria nº 9 and nº 10.
3. Addition of an exclusion criterion.
4. The change of the principal investigator was requested, for reasons unrelated to the promoter, from one of the participating centers in the study:
5. Correction of a typographical error of one of the participating centers that was included in the request for evaluation of the clinical trial. |
||
22 Nov 2012 |
The reason for this modification was to clarify on page 39 of the protocol, point 6.4. Treatment prohibited during the study period and correct typographical error that was a source of confusion for researchers. |
||
22 Jul 2013 |
The objective of this modification was to change the principal investigator in one of the centers participating in the clinical trial. |
||
Interruptions (globally) |
|||
Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No | |||
Limitations and caveats |
|||
Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data. | |||
Limitations related to the study population and design of this exploratory phase II trial involving frail elderly patients. | |||
