ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00049335
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of capecitabine in treating older patients who have metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer that cannot be surgically removed.


Condition Intervention Phase
Colorectal Cancer
 Drug: capecitabine
 Phase II

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Open Label
Official Title: Protocol For Assessment Of Capecitabine For Advanced Colorectal Cancer In Patients Aged 70 Years And Older (And In A Cohort Of Patients Younger Than 60 Years)

Study Start Date: February 2003
Primary Completion Date: June 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the feasibility of enrolling patients aged 70 and over with unresectable metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer to a structured phase II study.
  • Determine the anticancer efficacy of capecitabine, in terms of objective response rate (confirmed and unconfirmed, complete and partial responses) and 2-year survival, in these patients.
  • Determine the toxicity and tolerability of this drug in these patients.
  • Determine the feasibility of using standardized self-report measures of comorbidity, depression, and functional status of patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine the clinical pharmacology of this drug in these patients.
  • Determine whether patients under 60 years of age treated with this drug have clinical pharmacologic parameters similar to those reported in the literature.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to age (70 and over vs 18 to 59).

Patients receive oral capecitabine twice daily on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 18 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 6 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 80 patients (60 patients aged 70 and over, 20 patients aged 18 to 59) will be accrued for this study.
