Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the mechanism(s) of resistance to the anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody panitumumab given in combination with irinotecan in metastatic colorectal carcinoma (mCRC) patients with wild-type Kirsten rat sarcoma-2 virus oncogene (KRAS) tumor status at the time of initial diagnosis.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

In Part 1, all participants will undergo a baseline tumor biopsy and will receive panitumumab with irinotecan. Participants who respond or have stable disease will continue to receive treatment until radiographically-confirmed disease progression. These participants will then undergo a second tumor biopsy and blood sampling and then proceed to Part 2 of the study. Participants with radiographically confirmed disease progression at the time of the first tumor measurement will undergo blood sampling and proceed directly to Part 2.

In Part 2, participants will receive panitumumab with ganitumab. In both parts of the study, panitumumab and irinotecan (Part 1) and panitumumab and ganitumab (Part 2) will be administered every 2 weeks until disease progression, intolerability, withdrawal of consent, death, or unless otherwise indicated by the study team.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Part 1: Emergence of Mutant KRAS [From first dose of study drug until the 2nd biopsy at the time of disease progression/entry into Part 2; median duration of treatment in Part 1 was 16 weeks.]

      Mutation in Kirsten rat sarcoma-2 virus oncogene (KRAS) status was determined by examining KRAS exons 2, 3, and 4. The emergence of mutant KRAS was defined as a change in KRAS mutation status from wild-type at Baseline in KRAS exons 2, 3, and 4 to mutant in any of KRAS exons 2, 3, and 4 at the time of the second biopsy following the radiographic evidence of acquired resistance to panitumumab when given in combination with irinotecan.

    2. Part 2: Objective Response Rate (ORR) [From the first dose of study drug in Part 2 until the end of treatment in Part 2; median duration of treatment in Part 2 was 8 weeks.]

      Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of participants with either a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) measured by the investigator per modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.0 criteria during the treatment period. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no new lesions. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in size of target lesions and no progression (increase in size) of non-target lesions and no new lesions, or, the disappearance of all target lesions, persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) not qualifying for either CR or progressive disease (PD) and no new lesions.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Part 1: Objective Response Rate [From first dose of study drug until the end of treatment in Part 1; median duration of treatment was 16 weeks.]

      Objective response rate is defined as the percentage of participants with either a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) measured by the investigator per modified RECIST version 1.0 criteria during the treatment period. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no new lesions. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in size of target lesions and no progression of non-target lesions and no new lesions, or, the disappearance of all target lesions, persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) not qualifying for either CR or progressive disease and no new lesions.

    2. Progression-free Survival (PFS) [From the first dose of study drug until the data cut-off date of 30 July 2013. Median time on study follow-up was 48.5 weeks for Part 1 and 32 weeks in Part 2.]

      Progression-free survival was defined as the interval from the first dose of study therapy to the earlier date of disease progression (per modified RECIST version 1.0) or death prior to the analysis data cutoff date, initiating a new line of anti-tumor therapy, and receiving study treatment in Part 2 where applicable. Participants who had not progressed or died during this period were censored at their last evaluable disease assessment date. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the size of target or non-target lesions, significant increase in pleural effusions, ascites, or other fluid collections with cytologic proof of malignancy, or any new lesions.

    3. Overall Survival (OS) [From the first dose of study drug until the data cut-off date of 30 July 2013. Median time on study follow-up was 48.5 weeks for Part 1 and 32 weeks in Part 2.]

      Overall survival was defined as the time from the first dose of study therapy in Part 1 or Part 2 to the date of death. Participants who had not died by the analysis data cutoff date were censored at their last contact date.

    4. Time to Objective Response [From the first dose of study drug until the end of treatment in each Part; median duration of treatment was 16 weeks in Part 1 and 8 weeks in Part 2.]

      Time to objective response was defined as the time from first dose of study drug to the first confirmed objective response. An objective response is defined as a confirmed complete response or partial response per modified RECIST v1.0 criteria during the treatment period.

    5. Duration of Response [From the first dose of study drug until the data cut-off date of 30 July 2013. Median time on study follow-up was 48.5 weeks for Part 1 and 32 weeks in Part 2.]

      Duration of response is defined as the time from the first confirmed objective response to the earlier date of disease progression or death. An objective response is defined as a confirmed complete response or partial response per modified RECIST v1.0 criteria during the treatment period.

    6. Number of Participants Who Developed Antibodies to Panitumumab [From first dose date to 30 days since the last dose date. The median time frame is 4.2 months for Part 1 and 2.4 months for Part 2.]

      Two screening immunoassays, an acid-dissociation enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a Biacore-based biosensor assay, were used to detect antibodies capable of binding to panitumumab. Postive samples were further tested for neutralizing antibodies in a cell-based epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) phosphorylation bioassay.

    7. Number of Participants Who Developed Antibodies to Ganitumab [From first dose of ganitumab until 30 days after last dose; median time frame was 2.4 months.]

      Two validated assays were used to detect the presence of anti-ganitumab antibodies. First, an eletrochemiluminescent bridging immunoassay was used to detect binding antibodies (screening assay) and confirm antibodies (confirmatory assay) capable of binding ganitumab. Second, a cell-based bioassay was used to test positive binding antibody samples for neutralizing activity against ganitumab.

    8. Number of Participants With Adverse Events [From first dose date to 30 days since the last dose date in each part of the study. The median time frame is 4.2 months for Part 1 and 2.4 months for Part 2.]

      The severity of each adverse event (AE) was graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 (where 1 = Mild [aware of sign or symptom, but easily tolerated]; 2 = Moderate [discomfort enough to cause interference with usual activity]; 3 = severe [incapacitating with inability to work or do usual activity]; 4 = life-threatening; 5 = fatal), with the exception of selected skin toxicities that were graded using a modified version of CTC. Treatment-related adverse events were those events for which the investigator considered there to be a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by panitumumab (Part 1) and by panitumumab and/or ganitumab (Part 2). Discontinuation includes AEs leading to discontinuation of panitumumab (Part 1) and panitumumab, ganitumab (Part 2) or removal from the study.

    9. Number of Subjects With Worst Post-baseline Grade 3 or Higher Laboratory Toxicities [From first dose date to 30 days since the last dose date in each part of the study. The median time frame is 4.2 months for Part 1 and 2.4 months for Part 2.]

      The severity of laboratory toxicities was graded using CTCAE v3.0.

    Title Number of Participants With Adverse Events
    Description The severity of each adverse event (AE) was graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 (where 1 = Mild [aware of sign or symptom, but easily tolerated]; 2 = Moderate [discomfort enough to cause interference with usual activity]; 3 = severe [incapacitating with inability to work or do usual activity]; 4 = life-threatening; 5 = fatal), with the exception of selected skin toxicities that were graded using a modified version of CTC. Treatment-related adverse events were those events for which the investigator considered there to be a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by panitumumab (Part 1) and by panitumumab and/or ganitumab (Part 2). Discontinuation includes AEs leading to discontinuation of panitumumab (Part 1) and panitumumab, ganitumab (Part 2) or removal from the study.
    Time Frame From first dose date to 30 days since the last dose date in each part of the study. The median time frame is 4.2 months for Part 1 and 2.4 months for Part 2.

    Certain Agreements

    Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.

    The Clinical Trial Agreement generally does not restrict an investigator's discussion of trial results after completion. The Agreement permits Amgen a limited period of time to review material discussing trial results (typically up to 45 days and possible extension). Amgen may remove confidential information, but authors have final control and approval of publication content. For multicenter studies, the investigator agrees not to publish any results before the first multi-center publication.
