Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of the phase 2, GT-201 clinical study is to determine if GC4419 administered prior to intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) reduces the incidence, duration, and severity of radiation induced oral mucositis in patients who have been diagnosed with locally advanced, non-metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Low Dose GC4419: 30mg/day
  • Drug: High Dose GC4419: 90mg/day
  • Drug: Placebo
  • Radiation: Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy
  • Drug: Cisplatin
Phase 2

Detailed Description

GT-201 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study conducted in the U.S. to evaluate GC4419 administered via an intravenous line (IV) for the reduction of incidence, duration, and severity of radiation induced oral mucositis in patients receiving cisplatin plus intensity-modulated radiation therapy for post-operative, or definitive treatment of locally advanced, non-metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, limited to the oral cavity or oropharynx. Patients will be randomized equally to 1 of 3 treatment arms:

Arm A: 30 mg GC4419 per day (60 min IV infusion to complete within 60 minutes prior to IMRT), concurrent with daily fractions of IMRT (2.0 - 2.2 Gy) to a total of 60 - 72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks, plus cisplatin administered 80 - 100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 30 - 40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses (investigator's choice).

Arm B: 90 mg GC4419 per day (60 min IV infusion to complete within 60 minutes prior to IMRT), concurrent with daily fractions of IMRT (2.0 - 2.2 Gy) to a total of 60 - 72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks, plus cisplatin administered 80 - 100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 30 - 40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses (investigator's choice).

Arm C: Placebo daily (60 min IV infusion to complete within 60 minutes prior to IMRT), concurrent with daily fractions of IMRT (2.0 - 2.2 Gy) to a total of 60 - 72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks, plus cisplatin administered 80 - 100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 30 - 40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses (investigator's choice).

Planned radiation fields in all 3 arms must include at least two oral sites (buccal mucosa, floor of mouth, tongue, soft palate) with each site receiving a dose of at least 50 Gy.

All patients will be assessed twice weekly for oral mucositis per WHO grading criteria until the completion of IMRT, and once weekly thereafter (if necessary) for 8 weeks, or until oral mucositis resolves to ≤ Grade 1.

Approximately 200 total to ensure that roughly 60 patients per arm receive study drug and complete requirements for primary endpoint analysis, which is defined as patients receiving a minimum cumulative dose of 60 Gy.

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Low Dose GC4419: 30mg/day

30 mg GC4419/day prior to IMRT

Drug: Low Dose GC4419: 30mg/day
Low Dose GC4419 will be administered by 60 minute IV infusion, within 1 hour prior to daily IMRT fractions, until IMRT is complete (generally M-F for approximately 7 weeks).

Radiation: Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy
Daily fractions of IMRT (2.0-2.2 Gy) to a total of 60-72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks

Drug: Cisplatin
Administered 80-100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 30-40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses. Substitution of other systemic agents due to related toxicities (i.e., carboplatin) would be evaluated to determine eligibility by the Medical Monitor

Experimental: High Dose GC4419: 90mg/day

90 mg GC4419/day prior to IMRT

Drug: High Dose GC4419: 90mg/day
High Dose GC4419 will be administered by 60 minute IV infusion, within 1 hour prior to daily IMRT fractions, until IMRT is complete (generally M-F for approximately 7 weeks).

Radiation: Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy
Daily fractions of IMRT (2.0-2.2 Gy) to a total of 60-72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks

Drug: Cisplatin
Administered 80-100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 30-40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses. Substitution of other systemic agents due to related toxicities (i.e., carboplatin) would be evaluated to determine eligibility by the Medical Monitor

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Placebo daily, prior to IMRT

Drug: Placebo
Placebo will be administered by 60 minute IV infusion, within 1 hour prior to daily IMRT fractions, until IMRT is complete (generally M-F for approximately 7 weeks).

Radiation: Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy
Daily fractions of IMRT (2.0-2.2 Gy) to a total of 60-72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks

Drug: Cisplatin
Administered 80-100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 30-40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses. Substitution of other systemic agents due to related toxicities (i.e., carboplatin) would be evaluated to determine eligibility by the Medical Monitor

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Duration (in Days) of Radiation Induced Severe Oral Mucositis (OM) Per World Health Organization (WHO) Criteria [From start of Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) through 8 weeks follow-up, an average of 15 weeks]

    Assessed from the first determination of ≥Grade 3 OM to the first instance of non-severe OM (≤Grade 2), without a subsequent instance of ≥Grade 3

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [First dose of IMRT through the completion of IMRT, estimated to be up to 7 weeks.]

    Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) per arm

  2. Number of Participants Who Experience Severe OM [Minimum of 60 Gy administered to tumor, approximately 30 IMRT fractions, which is estimated to be 6-7 weeks.]

    Number of participants who experience severe OM from the first IMRT fraction through the last IMRT fraction

  3. Number of Participants Who Experienced Grade 4 OM From the First IMRT Fraction Through the Last IMRT Fraction [First dose of IMRT through the completion of IMRT, estimated to be up to 6-7 weeks.]

    Number of Participants who experienced Grade 4 OM

  4. Number of IMRT Fractions Delivered at Onset of Severe OM [Onset of Severe OM, estimated to be between first dose of IMRT and 7 weeks.]

    Onset of severe OM: number of IMRT fractions delivered at onset of severe OM

  5. Number of Participants Who Experienced Grade 4 Oral Mucocitis (OM) From the First IMRT Fraction Through the Last IMRT Fraction [Onset of Grade 4 OM, estimated to be between first dose of IMRT and 7 weeks.]

    Number of Participants who experienced Grade 4 OM

  6. Number of Participants With Tumor Outcomes Defined as Locoregional Failure, Distant Metastases, Disease Progression and Deaths [Up to 1 year following completion of chemoradiation.]

    Effect of treatment assignment on tumor outcomes (locoregional failure, distant metastases, progression-free survival, overall survival) Only 73 subjects in Placebo Arm were analyzed for locoregional failure, distant disease and progression-free survival because 1 subject was determined after enrollment to have a non-head and neck cancer and was therefore excluded from these analyses

Description Effect of treatment assignment on tumor outcomes (locoregional failure, distant metastases, progression-free survival, overall survival) Only 73 subjects in Placebo Arm were analyzed for locoregional failure, distant disease and progression-free survival because 1 subject was determined after enrollment to have a non-head and neck cancer and was therefore excluded from these analyses
