Study Summary

This trial is testing if adding Panitumumab to the usual treatments for this cancer will help keep it in remission for longer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but was surgically removed, and there's no sign of cancer elsewhere. They must have normal blood counts, kidney and liver function, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and haven't had certain treatments like HAI FUDR or anti-EGFR therapy if it didn't work before.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests whether adding Panitumumab to standard chemotherapy (Irinotecan, 5FU, Leucovorin) after surgery can extend the time patients remain cancer-free. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either this combination or just the chemotherapy without Panitumumab.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Panitumumab may cause skin reactions, low magnesium levels, allergic reactions similar to those from other drugs in its class. Chemotherapy can lead to fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, low blood cell counts increasing infection risk.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
to determine if panitumumab with Hepatic Arterial Infusion (HAI) in combination with systemic chemotherapy can increase the recurrence free survival (RFS) for colorectal cancer patients with resected liver metastases
Secondary outcome measures
to analyze tumor tissue for predictive biomarkers
to assess toxicity as per the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria
to determine survival

Are there notable precedents for research using panitumumab?

"As of now, 33 distinct medical studies are being conducted with panitumumab. Three of those trials have reached the third phase and can be found in Nagoya-shi, Aichi, however there exists a total 561 clinical trial sites testing this drug's efficacy."

Answered by AI

How many subjects does this trial have capacity for?

"This experiment has since ceased its recruitment process, with the most recent update to their record taking place on April 1st 2022. Alternatively, there are 876 studies connected to colorectal cancer and 33 trials leveraging panitumumab that remain active in terms of recruiting patients."

Answered by AI

Has panitumumab achieved regulatory approval yet?

"Although there is evidence that panitumumab may be safe, due to it being a Phase 2 trial with no efficacy data available, our team at Power estimated the safety of this medication as a level 2."

Answered by AI

Is this the inaugural clinical trial of its kind?

"Currently, 33 ongoing clinical trials for panitumumab are taking place in 141 cities and 15 countries since its initial study by Amgen back in 2011 which involved 75 participants and culminated at the Phase 2 drug approval stage. Since then 101 studies have been completed."

Answered by AI

How many healthcare centers are participating in this experimental study?

"Memorial Sloan Kettering Basking Ridge in Basking Ridge, Memorial Sloan Kettering Westchester in Harrison and Memorial Sloan Kettering Nassau in Uniondale are amongst the 8 medical sites that are actively participating in this clinical trial."

Answered by AI

Are there any open slots left in this experiment for participants?

"According to records posted on clinicaltrials.gov, this medical trial has concluded its recruitment phase and is no longer searching for patients. This study was initially announced in March 2011 with updates released April 2022; however, 909 other trials are currently accepting applicants at present."
