PhaseTypeStatusAgeSponsorProtocol IDs
Phase IIIBiomarker/Laboratory analysis, Tissue collection/Repository, TreatmentActive18 and overNCIRTOG-1010
RTOG-1010, NCT01196390

Objectives

Primary

  1. To determine whether trastuzumab increases disease-free survival when combined with radiotherapy, paclitaxel, and carboplatin followed by surgery in patients with HER2-overexpressing esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Secondary

  1. To evaluate whether the addition of trastuzumab to this neoadjuvant chemoradiation increases the pathologic complete response rate and overall survival of these patients.
  2. To develop a tissue bank of tumor tissue from patients with non-metastatic esophageal adenocarcinoma.
  3. To determine molecular correlates of complete pathologic response, disease-free survival, and overall survival of patients treated with these regimens.
  4. To evaluate predictors of cardiotoxicity in patients treated with these regimens.
  5. To evaluate adverse events associated with these regimens in these patients.

Tertiary

  1. To determine whether trastuzumab improves patient-reported Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Esophageal Cancer (FACT-E), Esophageal Cancer Subscale (ECS) score.
  2. To determine whether an improvement in the FACT-E ECS score at 6-8 weeks after completion of neoadjuvant chemoradiation correlates with pathologic complete response.
  3. To determine whether pathologic complete response correlates with the FACT-E ECS score at 1 year and/or 2 years in patients treated with these regimens.
  4. To determine whether the addition of trastuzumab to neoadjuvant chemoradiation improves the Swallow Index and Eating Index Subscale scores of the FACT-E of these patients.
  5. To determine whether the addition of trastuzumab to neoadjuvant chemoradiation impacts quality-adjusted survival of these patients.

Outline

This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to presence of adenopathy (yes vs no), and involved celiac nodes (absent vs presence ≤ 2 cm). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients undergo radiotherapy (may include intensity-modulated radiotherapy [IMRT]) once daily 5 days a week for 5.5 weeks. Patients also receive paclitaxel IV over 60 minutes and carboplatin IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36 and trastuzumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 57.

  • Arm II: Patients undergo radiotherapy (may include IMRT) once daily 5 days a week for 5.5 weeks. Patients also receive paclitaxel IV over 60 minutes and carboplatin IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36.

Within 5-6 weeks after completion of radiotherapy, all patients undergo surgery. Beginning 21-56 days after surgery, all patients receive trastuzumab IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 13 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients may undergo blood and tumor tissue samples collection (during surgery) for correlative studies and tissue bank.

Patients may complete the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Esophageal Cancer (FACT-E) and the EuroQol (EQ-5D) questionnaires at baseline and periodically during study.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up every 4 months for 2 years and then yearly thereafter.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol.
