Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium Injection for Prevention Neurotoxicity of mFOLFOX 6 in mCRC

Phase 3
Conditions
Colorectal Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02024412
Lead Sponsor
Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital
Brief Summary

The morbidity of colorectal cancer(CRC) is 10%~15% in China.mFolfox6 has become one of the standard regimes for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Neutropenia and oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity are the most common adverse effects which even result in discontinue of chemotherapy, especially for patients suffered from heavily acute neurotoxicity. Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside is a component of membrane of nerve cells. Previous phase II clinical trial showed, it can reduce oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity(OIN). But it did not certificated by phase III trial. Investigators designed the phase III trial to investigate the effect and safety of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium Injection for prevention OIN at colorectal cancer.

Detailed Description

it is a placebo controlled phase III trial. investigators plan to enroll 240 patients with 1:1 to A arm and B arm

monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodiummonosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodiumarm A: monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium Injection, 40mg,one hour before chemotherapy(mFOLFOX6), every two weeks until tumor progress or patients become intolerant
placeboplaceboarm B: equal saline as placebo ,one hour before chemotherapy(mFOLFOX6) every two weeks until tumor progress or intolerant
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The incidence of neurotoxicity including acute neurotoxicity and accumulating neurotoxicityFrom the first day of chemotherapy to 12 months after study or until one week before the patients receive second-line chemotherapy

Acute neurotoxicity will be assessed the first day of oxaliplatin at every cycle given;accumulating neurotoxicity will be assessed every two weeks from the second day of first cycle until the patients out of the study. The accumulating neurotoxicity will be assessed every four weeks for 12 months or one week before second-line chemotherapy

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Objective response rateEevery 6 weeks, up to 24 months

Investigators assess the effect every six weeks and objective response is recorded as complete response,partial response or stable disease according to Recist 1.1

Progress Free Survivalinvestigators assess the effect of chemotherapy every 6 weeks ,up to 24 months

From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression

overall SurvivalFrom date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 100 months

the patients will be followed one month after progression ,then every 3 months,up to 100 months

quality of lifeevaluate 1 week before chemotherapy and every 6 weeks of study. And evaluate within 4 weeks after the patients out of the study

we use sf-36 to evaluated the quality of life
