Trial Description

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine that ABX-EGF will have clinically meaningful anti-tumor activity in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have developed progressive disease or relapsed while on or after prior fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan and oxaliplatin chemotherapy.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Pathologic diagnosis of colorectal adenocarcinoma (diagnostic tissue obtained by tissue biopsy)
  • Metastatic colorectal carcinoma
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group of 0, 1 or 2
  • Documented evidence of disease progression during, or following treatment, with fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan and oxaliplatin chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer
  • Radiographic documentation of disease progression during or within 6 months following the most recent chemotherapy regimen is required
  • Bidimensionally measurable disease
  • Tumor expressing low to negative levels of EGFr by immunohistochemistry
  • At least 2 but no more than 3 prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic colorectal cancer
  • Adequate hematologic, renal and hepatic function

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Symptomatic brain metastases requiring treatment
  • Patient with a history of interstitial pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis or evidence of interstitial pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis
  • Use of systemic chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 30 days before enrollment
  • Prior anti-EGFr antibody therapy with the exception of the small molecule EGFr tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which are permitted
  • Prior anti-tumor therapies including prior experimental agents or approved anti-tumor small molecules and biologics of short (less than 1 week) serum half-life within 30 days before enrollment, or prior experimental or approved proteins within 6 weeks before enrollment
