Phase I/Randomized Phase II Study of Second Line Therapy With Irinotecan + Cetuximab +/- RAD001 for Colorectal Cancer
- Conditions
- Colorectal Cancer
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT00522665
- Lead Sponsor
- Hoosier Cancer Research Network
- Brief Summary
The addition of RAD001, an mTOR inhibitor, to irinotecan and anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab may increase efficacy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who progressed on prior chemotherapy. This approach is biologically directed to overall target the cancer cell at multiple levels, and potentially preventing chemotherapy and EGFR-therapy resistance.
- Detailed Description
OUTLINE: This is a multi-center study.
PHASE I:
* UGT1A1 \*28 7/7 genotype IS NOT present
* Cetuximab 250 mg/m2 IV days 1, 8, and 15
* Irinotecan 125 mg/m2 IV days 1 and 8
* RAD001 PO QD (dose determined at the time of registration; subjects will remain at this dose level until treatment discontinuation)
PHASE II:
* Randomization based on UGT1A1 \*28 7/7 Genotype or Prior Irinotecan Exposure
ARM A:
* Cetuximab 250 mg/m2 IV days 1, 8, and 15
* Irinotecan 125 mg/m2 IV days 1 and 8
AT TIME OF PROGRESSIVE DISEASE, ARM A TREATMENT WILL CROSSOVER:
* Cetuximab 250 mg/m2 IV days 1, 8, and 15
* Irinotecan 125 mg/m2 IV days 1 and 8
* RAD001 PO QD (maximum tolerated dose)
ARM B:
* Cetuximab 250 mg/m2 IV days 1, 8, and 15
* Irinotecan 125 mg/m2 IV days 1 and 8
* RAD001 PO QD (maximum tolerated dose)
AT TIME OF PROGRESSIVE DISEASE, ARM B TREATMENT WILL BE DISCONTINUED

Renal:
* Calculated creatinine clearance of ≥ 60 cc/min using the Cockcroft-Gault formula
Cardiovascular:
* No uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) within 6 months prior to being registered for protocol therapy
* No uncontrolled congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, or unstable angina within 6 months prior to being registered for protocol therapy
Pulmonary:
* No severely impaired lung function as demonstrated by pulse O2 saturation ≤ 90% at rest on room air, or pulmonary function test FEV1 ≤ 2L
* No history of prior chronic lung infection such as tuberculosis, atypical tuberculosis, or histoplasmosis as evidenced by a chest CT or x-ray within 21 days prior to being registered for protocol therapy
Recruitment & Eligibility
- Status
- COMPLETED
- Sex

- Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information
- Females of childbearing potential and males must be willing to use an effective method of contraception
- Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of being registered for protocol therapy
- No more than one prior chemotherapy regimen for metastatic colorectal cancer, at least 28 days prior to being registered for protocol therapy
- No prior treatment with cetuximab
- No prior treatment with an mTOR inhibitor
- No known hypersensitivity to cetuximab, RAD001 (everolimus), other rapamycins (sirolimus, temsirolimus) or to its excipients
- No treatment with any investigational agent within 28 days prior to being registered for protocol therapy
- No symptomatic brain metastasis
- No uncontrolled diabetes as defined by a fasting serum glucose >1.5 x ULN
- No chronic treatment with systemic steroids or another immuno-suppressive agent
- No serious non-healing wound, ulcer, bone fracture, major surgical procedure, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to being registered for protocol therapy

- No active bleeding or a pathological condition that is associated with a high risk of bleeding
- No uncontrolled systemic disease including active infections or uncontrolled hypertension
- No known history of HIV seropositivity
- No impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of RAD001 (e.g., ulcerative disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection)
- No nonmalignant medical illnesses that are uncontrolled or whose control may be jeopardized by the treatment with protocol therapy
- No planned immunization with attenuated live viruses during the study period
