IPO-NEC Trial:Study on the Efficacy and Safety Using Sequential IP Therapy and Oct Lar in the Treatment of Advanced GI NEC

May 17, 2015 updated by: Shen Lin, Peking University

a Prospective Study on the Efficacy and Safety Using Sequential Therapy of Irinotecan Combined With Cisplatin (IP)and Octretide Lar in the First Line Treatment of Metastatic or Inoperable Gastrointestinal Poorly Differentiated Neuroendocrine Carcinoma: the IPO-NEC Trial

This is a prospective, single-armed, open label study on the efficacy and safety of sequential IP therapy(Irinotecan plus cisplatin) and octreotide lar in the treatment of GI poorly diffrentiated Neuroendocrine carcinoma. Patient with written consents will enter the phase one step of the trial, receiving IP therpy. Once the IP therapy has been finished without disease progression or progression occurs during the treatment, the patient will enter the phase two step of the trial, receiving octreotide treatment. The primary endpoint is progression free survival in the two steps respectively and secondary endpoint is disease control rate, overall survival and safety

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression Free Survival for Irinotecan plus cisplatin and octreotide
Time Frame: 2 years
The primary objective is to investigate the overall progression free suvival for irinotecan plus cisplatin and octretide. The respective PFS of the two treatment steps will also be investigated. The result will be compared with the history treatment outcomes for patients of poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Disease control rate
Time Frame: 2 years
The second objective includes the disease control rate of irinotecan plus cisplatin and octretide theray.
2 years
Overall survival
Time Frame: 3 years

3 years
Safety
Time Frame: 3 years
The secondary objective also includes the investigation on the safety profiles of the two interventions, irinotecan plus cisplatin treatment and octretide. The safety profile will be described using incidence of AEs and SAEs, using CTCAE criteria
