S0212 Celecoxib in Treating Patients With High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions of the Cervix

Phase 2
Withdrawn
Conditions
High-grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion
Stage 0 Cervical Cancer
Registration Number
NCT00072540
Lead Sponsor
SWOG Cancer Research Network
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development of cancer. Celecoxib may be effective in preventing cervical cancer.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of celecoxib in preventing cervical cancer in patients who have high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Compare the complete response rate in patients with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix treated with celecoxib vs placebo.

* Compare the toxicity of these drugs in these patients.

* Determine, preliminarily, the effect of celecoxib on cyclooxygenase-2 expression and human papilloma virus expression in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion status (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia \[CIN\] 2 vs CIN 3). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

* Arm I: Patients receive oral celecoxib twice daily for 1 month.

* Arm II: Patients receive oral placebo twice daily for 1 month. In both arms, treatment repeats monthly for 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. All patients then undergo loop electrosurgical excision procedure or cone biopsy to determine response.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 100 patients (50 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 1-2 years.
