Advanced Urothelial Cancer, Metastatic Urothelial Cancer
Conditions
Keywords
Urothelial cancer, renal function impaired.
Brief summary
This is a phase II/III, multicenter, randomized study which includes 420 patients on six years + 3 years follow up. 92 patients will be included during the phase II ; additional 328 patients will be included. Patients with an advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer with impaired renal function will be randomized in one of the two following chemotherapy arm: * Fractionated Cisplatin + Gemcitabine. * Carboplatin + Gemcitabine. The main objective of the part II study will be to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of a chemotherapy with a doublet platinum salt compound/Gemcitabine with fractionated Cisplatin or Carboplatin in this population. The main objective of the part III study will be to compare the efficacy in terms of overall survival of a chemotherapy with a doublet platinum salt/Gemcitabine with fractionated Cisplatin or Carboplatin in this population.
Interventions
Carboplatin AUC (area under curve) 4,5 at day 1 of each cycle until 6 cycles.
Cisplatin 35mg/m² at day 1 and day 8 of each cycle until 6 cycles.
Gemcitabine 1000mg/m² at day 1 and day 8 of each cycle until 6 cycles.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Phase II: Efficacy - Rate of non progression at the end of treatment (C6D21). | 5 years. | Progression is defined according to RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) criteria V1.1. |
| Phase III: Overall survival (in months). | 9 years. | Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization until death or last follow up news (censured data). |
| Phase II: Tolerance - Percentage of patients for whom at least one of the 3 defined tolerance criteria (see description) is observed. | 5 years. | Defined tolerance criteria : * Postponement of chemotherapy \> or = 2 weeks. * Alteration of renal function. * Need to decrease twice Gemcitabine dose on day 1 for : NCI CTC (National Cancer Institut Common Toxicity Criteria) grade III or IV non-hematologic toxicity, hematologic toxicity. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Phase II and III: Quality of life using the EORTC QLQ - C30 questionnaire (European Organization for research and treatment of Cancer - Quality of life questionnaire). | Phase II: 5 years ; Phase III: 9 years. | — |
| Phase II and III: Pharmacokinetics - Platin concentrations | At cycles 1 and 2 day 1 - 5 mn before the end of infusion, one hour after the end of infusion, 3 hours (arm A) or 4 hours (arm B) after the end of infusion. | — |
| Phase II and III: Pharmacogenetics, exploration of cytidine deaminase activity and study of its genetic polymorphisms. | Prior to the initial dose on cycle 1 day 1. | — |
| Phase II and III: Objective response. | Phase II: 5 years ; Phase III: 9 years. | Objective response (ie complete or partial response) will be evaluated according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. |
| Phase II and III: Overall survival. | Phase II: 5 years ; Phase III: 9 years. | Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization until death from all causes combined. |
| Phase II and III: Time to treatment failure. | Phase II: 5 years ; Phase III: 9 years. | Time to treatment failure is defined as the time from randomization to treatment discontinuation, whatever its cause. |
