Crizotinib in c-MET Mutation Metastatic/Recurrent/Persistent Endometrial Cancer

July 13, 2025 updated by: National Cheng-Kung University Hospital

Phase II Trial of Crizotinib in c-MET Mutation Metastatic/Recurrent/Persistent Endometrial Cancer

The majority of endometrial cancer patients with disease spread beyond the uterus will progress within 1 year. Platinum-based chemotherapy was used as the first-line treatment in metastatic or advanced endometrial cancer. There is no standard protocol for the second-line option when tumors persist or recur. In vitro and in vivo studies showed Crizotinib, an approved drug for the treatment of ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer, demonstrated activities in endometrial cancer with c-MET kinase and Sema domain mutations. As a consequence, a phase 2 clinical trial to investigate the efficacy of Crizotinib in endometrial cancer patients with MET mutation is initiated.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

In this phase 2 study, the target population is patients with recurrent or persistent metastatic endometrial cancer. The mutation status of c-MET gene will be tested and only patients with c-MET mutation will be enrolled. After enrollment, Crizotinib 250 mg bid will be used orally. CT scan or MRI will be used to determine the response. Crizotinib will be continued till disease progression. Primary end is objective response rate. The secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, overall survival and safety profiles.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in best overall response rate
Time Frame: CT scan or MRI will be done at baseline and at the end of every 2 cycles (each cycle is 28 days) until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 104 weeks
CT scan or MRI will be used to evaluate the response every 2 cycles according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria. The best overall response rate is the proportion of patients in whom a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was observed.
CT scan or MRI will be done at baseline and at the end of every 2 cycles (each cycle is 28 days) until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 104 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression-free survival
Time Frame: CT scan or MRI will be done at baseline and at the end of every 2 cycles (each cycle is 28 days) until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 104 weeks
CT scan or MRI will be used to evaluate the response according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Progression-free survival is defined as the time from the time of treatment to disease progression or death from any cause.
CT scan or MRI will be done at baseline and at the end of every 2 cycles (each cycle is 28 days) until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 104 weeks
Overall survival
Time Frame: Overall survival will be followed from the start of treatment to death from any cause, up to 104 weeks
Overall survival is defined as defined as the time from the start of treatment to death from any cause.
Overall survival will be followed from the start of treatment to death from any cause, up to 104 weeks
