Hepatic Arterial Infusion With Floxuridine and Dexamethasone in Combination With Intravenous Oxaliplatin Plus Irinotecan in Patients With Unresectable Hepatic Metastases From Colorectal Cancer
This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
Sponsors and Collaborators: Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
University of Medicine and Dentistry New Jersey
Sanofi-Aventis
Information provided by: Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00695201
  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to see how well patients tolerate the side effects of treatment with Floxuridine, Oxaliplatin and Irinotecan. We also want to know if these methods used together are a useful way of treating cancer. We have studied these drugs and know the best doses of each when they are used alone. We do not yet know how well the drugs work with each other. This study will tell us the best doses of each drug when they are given over the same period of time.

Official Title: A Phase I Study of Hepatic Arterial Infusion With Floxuridine and Dexamethasone in Combination With Intravenous Oxaliplatin Plus Irinotecan in Patients With Unresectable Hepatic Metastases From Colorectal Cancer.

Further study details as provided by Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Determine the MTD of hepatic arterial floxuridine (FUDR) & dexamethasone (Dex) given via implanted pump in combination w biweekly intravenous Oxaliplatin + systemic irinotecan (CPT-11) in patients w unresectable hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer. [ Time Frame: conclusion of the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To determine the preliminary anti-tumor activity of the aforementioned combination chemotherapy. [ Time Frame: conclusion of the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To procure normal and disease liver tissue for evaluation of TS, p53, p21, TOPO 1, DPD, and ERCC levels. [ Time Frame: conclusion of the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 72

Estimated Study Completion Date: August 2010
Estimated Primary Completion Date: August 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental
Patients will undergo pump placement and biopsy of diseased liver tissue. Chemotherapy will be initiated as soon as possible following verification of adequate pump placement and perfusion by radiographic pump study. Treatment will continue indefinitely unless a patient experiences a treatment endpoint.
Drug: Floxuridine, Oxaliplatin, CPT-11
For patients on the 4-week cycle: On the first day of each cycle, the pump will be filled with FUDR and dexamethasone. The pump will be emptied of drugs after 2 weeks (on day 15 of each cycle) and filled with heparin (which is used to prevent blood from clotting) and saline. Whether the pump contains drug or heparin and saline, it will need to be emptied and refilled about every two weeks. We will inject either the drugs or the saline and heparin into the pump through the skin using a needle and syringe. In summary, 2 weeks of drug in the pump is followed by 2 weeks without drug in the pump. The systemic chemotherapy (Oxaliplatin/CPT-11) will be administered on the same day as the pump is filled and emptied, ie. Day 1 and Day 15 of each cycle.
2: Experimental
Patients will undergo pump placement and biopsy of diseased liver tissue. Chemotherapy will be initiated as soon as possible following verification of adequate pump placement and perfusion by radiographic pump study. Treatment will continue indefinitely unless a patient experiences a treatment endpoint.
Drug: Floxuridine, Oxaliplatin, CPT-11
For patients on the 5-week cycle: On the first day of each cycle, the pump will be filled with FUDR and dexamethasone. The pump will be emptied of drugs after 2 weeks (on day 15 of each cycle) and filled with heparin and saline. This is repeated on day 29 of each cycle). In summary, 2 weeks of drug in the pump are followed by 3 weeks without drug in the pump. The systemic chemotherapy (Oxaliplatin/CPT-11) will be administered on the same day that the pump is emptied and filled with heparin and saline, i.e. Day 15 and Day 29 of each cycle.
