Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The main objective of this proof of concept study will be to obtain data on the efficacy of Elsiglutide (ZP1846) in preventing CID in patients with colorectal cancer receiving 5-FU based chemotherapy (FOLFOX4 or FOLFIRI regimen) in comparison to placebo.;Secondary Objective: Safety and tolerability of the administered repeated doses of Elsiglutide (ZP1846) will be evaluated and the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Elsiglutide (ZP1846), and its metabolites ZP2242 and ZP2712 will be investigated in a subset of patients in each treatment arm.;Primary end point(s): Number of patients experiencing no diarrhea from Day 1 to Day 14.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 1 to Day 14, on a daily basis. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Proportion of patients experiencing Grades =2 diarrhea (NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0) from Day 1 to Day 14; 2. Worst grade of diarrhea according to NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0 (from Day 1 to Day 14); 3. Time to occurrence of diarrhea, defined as the first day in which a Grade = 1 diarrhea is assessed (from Day 1 to day 14); 4. Number of days with presence of Grade = 1 diarrhea (from Day 1 to Day 14); 5. Number of days with presence of Grade = 2 diarrhea (from Day 1 to Day 14); 6. Number of days with presence of at least one bowel movement accompanied by urgency (from Day 1 to 14); 7. Number of days with presence of at least one episode of fecal incontinence (from Day 1 to 14); 8. Proportion of patients who required i.v. fluids due to CID (from Day 1 to 14); 9. Proportion of patients who required changes to the primary therapy (chemotherapy dose reduction, delay or change to regimen) due to CID as of Day 2, Day 14 and as of Day 28; 10. Proportion of patients who use rescue medication (i.e. medication used for treatment of diarrhea) from Day 1 to Day 14.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 1 to Day 14, on a daily basis (except for secondary endpoint 9 which has to be performed at Day 28 as well). | — |
