We aren't docs. Always confer with your doctor about Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website committed to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Clinical research trials and Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer health trials happen in many of cities across the US. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally measure the effectualness of new does drugs. The intention of the studies / projects is to figure out particular human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to detect cures for all forms of circumstances, like Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer. Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow for volunteers to undergo medical treatment options before they are available to the general public. Most times the subjects get treatment for free of charge, and occasionally they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer clinical trial. Subjects frequently get the best healthcare possible for their Combination Chemotherapy With or Without SU5416 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer condition. Hazards are a reality, however, and could include more or frequent mD visits, health risks (possibly life-jeopardizing), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with exacting guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. SU5416 may stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy will be more effective with or without SU5416 in treating metastatic colorectal cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without SU5416 in treating patients who have metastatic colorectal cancer.
Details: OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the survival of patients with previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer treated with fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and irinotecan with or without SU5416. II. Compare the antitumor efficacy of these regimens in these patients. III. Evaluate the additional measures of clinical benefit in patients treated with these regimens. IV. Determine the relative safety profile of these regimens in these patients. V. Assess quality of life of patients treated with these regimens. PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to ECOG performance status (0 vs 1), baseline lactate dehydrogenase (normal vs elevated), and treatment regimen. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms by 2 different regimens (Saltz vs de Gramont). Regimen I (Saltz): Arm IA: Patients receive SU5416 IV over 1 hour on days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22, 25, 29, 32, 36, and 39. Patients also receive irinotecan IV over 30-90 minutes, leucovorin calcium IV over 5-10 minutes, and fluorouracil IV over 5-10 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Arm IIA: Patients receive irinotecan, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil as in arm I. Treatment in both arms repeats every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Regimen II (de Gramont): Arm IB: Patients receive SU5416 as in arm IA. Patients also receive irinotecan IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1, 15, and 29 and leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours and fluorouracil IV over 2 hours on days 1, 2, 15, 16, 29, and 30. Arm IIB: Patients receive irinotecan, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil as in arm IB. Treatment in both arms repeats every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Quality of life is assessed at baseline, at the beginning of each course, and then at the end of treatment. Patients are followed at 1 month and then every 2 months for 4 years. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 1,270 patients (635 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 2 years.
