Irinotecan, Oxaliplatin, and Capecitabine as First-Line Therapy in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Locally Advanced Small Bowel Cancer
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by National Cancer Institute (NCI), January 2009
Sponsors and Collaborators: North Central Cancer Treatment Group
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00433550
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving irinotecan together with oxaliplatin and capecitabine works as first-line therapy in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable locally advanced small bowel cancer.

Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Assess the confirmed tumor response in patients with metastatic or unresectable locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the small bowel treated with irinotecan hydrochloride, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine when dosed according to UGT1A1 genotype.

Secondary

  • Assess the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
  • Assess, preliminarily, whether celiac disease may affect toxicity and outcome in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Assess, preliminarily, whether tumor origin (duodenal, jejunal, or ileal) affects response or survival in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a prospective, multicenter study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 3 treatment groups based on UGT1A1 genotype.

  • Group 1 (6/6 UGT1A1 genotype): Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 90 minutes and oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on day 1 and oral capecitabine twice daily on days 2-15.
  • Group 2 (6/7 UGT1A1 genotype): Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride as in group 1. They also receive oxaliplatin and capecitabine as in group 1 but at lower doses.
  • Group 3 (7/7 UGT1A1 genotype): Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine as in group 1 but at lower doses.

In all groups, treatment repeats every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Blood and serum samples are collected at baseline for UGT1A1 genotyping, celiac disease testing, and research studies, including translational and pharmacologic studies.

After the completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 6 weeks for 2 years and then periodically thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 33 patients will be accrued for this study.
