Study of Niraparib With Radiotherapy for Treatment of Metastatic Invasive Carcinoma of the Cervix

NCT03644342

Description:

The most effective strategy for managing distantly metastatic invasive carcinomas of the cervix is not defined. Based on the success of niraparib in breast and ovarian cancer trials and the concern for toxicities and comorbidities limiting the compliance of concurrent cisplatin for cervical cancer, this study is a phase I/II study of women diagnosed with distantly metastatic (Stage IV) disease to determine the maximum tolerated dose and to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of niraparib, an orally available small molecule PARP inhibitor when administered concurrently with definitive regional radiotherapy for treatment of cervical cancer. Women enrolled in this study will receive 3-6 cycles of induction-style carboplatin and paclitaxel followed by definitive doses of pelvic radiotherapy along with the oral niraparib given at the same time.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Maximum tolerated dose of niraparib
Time Frame:12 months after end of treatment
Safety Issue:
Description:Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of niraparib when administered concurrently with whole pelvic radiotherapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:acute toxicity profile of niraparib
Time Frame:12 months after end of treatment
Safety Issue:
Description:acute toxicity profile of niraparib administered concurrently with whole pelvic radiotherapy according to the CTCAE version 4 as well as the grade of each toxicity.
Measure:Change in the quality of life measured using FACT-Cx questionnaire
Time Frame:12 months after end of treatment
Safety Issue:
Description:Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cervix (FACT Cx). It measures health related quality of life for people with cervical cancer in 4 domains: physical well being, social/family well being, emotional well being, and functional well being. All questions are a 0-4 scale. The total score is then calculated as the sum of the un-weighted subscale scores (0-27). For all FACIT scales and symptom indices, the higher the score the better the QOL
Measure:tumor response
Time Frame:End of treatment (8 weeks) and every 3 months during follow-up phase for up to 5 years
Safety Issue:
Description:tumor response outside the radiation field using RECIST 1.1 for women receiving niraparib concurrently with whole pelvic radiotherapy.
