CESAR Study in Prostate Cancer With Temsirolimus Added to Standard Docetaxel Therapy (CEPTAS)

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Prostatic Neoplasms
Registration Number
NCT01206036
Lead Sponsor
Central European Society for Anticancer Drug Research
Brief Summary

In this Phase I study safety of the combination of Docetaxel and Temsirolimus needs to be shown before the study can be expanded into a Phase II study to examine the activity of a safe combination of Temsirolimus and Docetaxel in a comparison with Docetaxel alone.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this Phase I study is to evaluate feasibility of dose levels DL1, DL2 and DL3 (which are combinations of Temsirolimus and Docetaxel) and defining a recommended dose (RD) for the Phase II part using these dose levels in a dose escalating scheme.

Secondary objectives are the collection of safety data on the dose levels used in this part.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
recommended dose10 months

Phase I Part: Primary endpoint is the Recommended Dose (RD) for the Phase II Part chosen between the three DLs based on the dose escalation scheme.

disease progression-free survival24 months

Phase II Part: Primary endpoint is to evaluate the activity of the addition of Temsirolimus to standard treatment on the disease progression-free survival (DPFS Chemotherapy) in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer receiving first-line Docetaxel chemotherapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
DPFS time24 months

Phase II Part: DPFS time measured as failure time between 1st randomization and disease progression or death whatever occurred first. Patients lost-to follow-up, dropping out (e.g. when withdrawing consent) or patients surviving progression free at the end-of-study time point are treated as censored cases.

quality of life24 months

Phase II Part: Quality of life using the EORTC questionnaire

safety as defined as occurence of treatment related adverse events10 months

Phase I Part: Secondary endpoint is the collection of safety data on the dose levels used in this part.

overall response24 months

Phase II Part: Responses of measurable disease (RECIST 1.1 criteria) including the overall response rate (RR, CFR+PR) and the disease control rate (PR+CR+SD). In addition to the overall response rate RR, the trial will also evaluate the number of responders based on PSA evaluation only (RR-PSA) and the number of responders based on RECIST evaluation only (RR-RECIST) among those who are evaluable by that criterion, respectively. RR is only evaluated for the chemotherapy part of the Phase II part of the trial.

PSA24 months

Phase II Part: Proportion of patients with drop of PSA of \> 30% in the evaluation period compared to baseline compared to baseline.

1-year Disease-Progression Free Survival Rate24 months

Phase II Part: 1-year Disease-Progression Free Survival Rate (DPFS-1yR); defined as the quotient defined exactly in the same way as DPFS-6mR with the landmark time point equal to 1 year, +/- 4 weeks for assessment one year after randomization.

overall survival24 months

Phase II Part: overall survival (OS) measured from randomization until death or lost to follow up (censored survival time)

TTP-PSA24 months

Phase II Part: Time to PSA progression (TTP-PSA) measured from randomization until PSA progression as defined in Scher et al. "Decline from baseline: record time from start of therapy to first PSA increase that is ≥ 25% and ≥ 2 ng/mL above the nadir, and which is confirmed by a second value 3 or more weeks later (ie, a confirmed rising trend)†"

toxicity based on treatment-related toxicities using CTCAE v4.024 months

Phase II Part: Evaluation of toxicity using CTCAE v4.0

Frequency of medication for pain24 months

Phase II Part: Frequency of medication for pain
