Assessment and Prediction of Cetuximab-Induced Hypersensitivity Reactions Using Cetuximab Specific IgE Detection

March 31, 2019 updated by: Yonsei University
  1. Background Cetuximab (trade name Erbitux) is a murine-human chimeric monoclonal antibody to human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). This drug has been used as a treatment for colorectal cancer and head and neck cancer. It is known that allergic reactions can occur in more than 5% of the patients, although the side effects are relatively low compared with other chemotherapeutic agents. It is known that cetuximab can induce hypersensitivity even at the first administration, unlike other anticancer drugs. In this study, we aimed to establish a model to predict patients with hypersensitivity reaction before administration of cetuximab and to provide safe chemotherapy.
  2. Recruitment method and consent procedure The study is designed for analysis patients scheduled for administration of cetuximab for the first time. Patients matching the selection and exclusion criteria with voluntary agreement to the study will be enrolled. Enrolled patients will be tested for skin prick test and serum sIgE before cetuximab administration.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

  • Acquisition of agreement Agreement, explanation, and consent form for study of human derived sample those that approved by the IRB are obtained from patients who prospectively voluntarily participate in the study and provide human derived sample.

  • Observation and evaluation values

    ① Serum Cetuximab-specific IgE measurement (ImmunoCAP, conventional ELISA) before administration of cetuximab

    ② Cetuximab Skin test using before cetuximab administration

    ③ Clinical symptoms after cetuximab administration through chart review (vital signs, occurrence of adverse drug reaction)

    ④ Check patient's underlying disease and allergy history

  • Statistical analysis method Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, Student t-test, Mann-Whitney test, Logistic regression test, Cox's regression test, and ROC curve will be used

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients scheduled for Cetuximab administration according to standard treatment guidelines for the treatment of underlying tumor disease.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult men and women over 18 years of age
  • Patients scheduled for cetuximab administration according to standard treatment guidelines for the treatment of underlying tumor disease.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who did not consent to the study voluntarily after IRB approval
  • Persons who are vulnerable (including persons with disabilities, lack of physician capacity, pregnant status, persons who are accommodated in facilities, etc.)
  • Those who can not read and understand the agreement

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
Hypersensitivity reaction after cetuximab administration
Time Frame: Within 4 weeks after first administration
Adverse drug reaction after Cetuximab administration includes severe systemic allergic reaction such as anaphylaxis, urticaria, skin rash, dyspnea, shock and mental change.
Within 4 weeks after first administration

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
Cetuximab specific IgE
Time Frame: within 4 weeks after first administration
Cetuximab specific IgE measured by ImmunoCAP assay, ELISA
within 4 weeks after first administration

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
