Brief summary

The application of transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) using LifePearl Microspheres loaded with Irinotecan in liver-only or liver-dominant metastatic disease in patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma will be observed. The registry has the following objectives: 1. map the exact indications that the device is being used for and at which stage in treatment it is being applied 2. to assess observed treatment outcomes in terms of safety and effectiveness as well as trying to determine any predictive response factors

Detailed description

CIREL will capture a broad spectrum of real clinical data on the delivery of transcatheter arterial chemoembolisation (TACE) using LifePearl Microspheres loaded with Irinotecan (LP-IRI) and the observed clinical outcomes. The aim of doing so is to improve our understanding of how LifePearl microspheres are administered as part of the standard treatment of colorectal adenocarcinoma with liver metastases in Europe. Ultimately, the collection of real-life data is intended to provide an evidence-base from which conclusions can be drawn on how to optimise treatment protocols and consequently the therapy outcome of TACE performed with LifePearl Microspheres. The CIREL registry is a prospective multicentre observational (non-interventional) study. In order to meet the objective of collecting real-life data, all subjects receiving TACE with LifePearl Microspheres loaded with Irinotecan and fulfilling the inclusion criteria in all participating centres will be asked to participate. Patients are only asked to participate in the registry when they are treated with LifePearl Microspheres loaded with Irinotecan as part of the treatment determined by the treating clinician. In no way, will participation in the registry influence the way in which the patient is treated according to the treating clinician, or will it influence the quality of the treatment. In order to measure changes in the quality of life of enrolled patients at different moments in time before and after treatment with LifePearl microspheres, CIREL will incorporate the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. The quality of life questionnaire is suggested to be offered to the patient at the following three points in time: * Immediately (max. 1 week) before the treatment with LP-IRI * 4-8 weeks after completion of the full treatment with LP-IRI * 12-16 weeks after the completion of the full treatment with LP-IRI Filling out the quality-of-life questionnaire is entirely voluntary for the patient. The patient will be offered to fill out the questionnaire in his/her mother tongue. The patient will have the choice to fill in the questionnaire either in hard copy or online via the electronic data capture system. The CIREL registry will include central image analysis performed by the Fédération Francophone de Cancérologie Digestive (FFCD). The aim of the analyis is to detect possible associations between RECIST (v1.1) criteria and observed outcomes, reduce bias by providing a second reading and raise data quality. The registry aims at enrolling up to 150 patients. The registry will stop enrolment two and a half years after the enrolment of the first patient, unless decided differently by the Steering Committee. Patients should be followed up until 65% of active patients are deceased and for at least 12 months.

Interventions

DEVICELifePearl Microspheres loaded with Irinotecan

LifePearl Microspheres are embolisation microspheres for transcatheter chemoembolisation (TACE), that can be loaded with chemotherapeutic agents. In this registry, LifePearl Microspheres will be loaded with Irinotecan.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of indications that the device is being used for, as assessed by stage and previous treatment(s)2.5 yearsThe primary objective is to ultimately categorise observed usages as one of the following: * LifePearl as a first-line treatment * LifePearl as a consolidation or closing treatment with or without systemic therapy * Intensification of treatment with concomitant systemic therapy (objective: resectability and/or ablative therapy) * Salvage treatment in progressive patients pre-treated with systemic therapy, with or without concomitant systemic therapy * Combination treatment with ablation with a curative intent * Other

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of participants with acute and/or chronic adverse events according to CTCAE version 4.03.4 yearsSafety and Tolerability will be monitored during and after treatment with LP-IRI.
Time from observation until death due to any cause (or censoring)4 yearsOverall survival
Time from observation until disease progression or death4 yearsProgression-free survival (PFS) will be assessed by the investigator and central CT/MRI image analysis.
Time from observation until disease progression in the liver or death4 yearsHepatic progression-free survival (liver-specific PFS) will be assessed by the investigator and central CT/MRI image analysis.
Proportion of patients with reduction in tumor burden, as assessed by RECIST (v.1.1)4 yearsObjective Tumour Response Rate will be assessed by the investigator and central CT/MRI image analysis.
Number of patients with tumour shrinkage at > 20% or >30% at first tumour assessment (4 - 8 wks)4 yearsAssessment of early tumour shrinkage serves as an early-on-treatment predictor of treatment efficacy.
Nadir of tumour response over the time of observation4 yearsDeepness of response (DpR) serves as a continuous measure, which defines the nadir of tumour response and serves as an early-on-treatment predictor of treatment efficacy.
Number of patients with secondary resections or ablative treatments following initial treatment with LP-IRI4 yearsSecondary resection/ablation
The quality of participants' lives, as assessed by the QLQ-C30 questionnaire (developed by EORTC)4 yearsQuality of Life questionnaires will be filled out: * Baseline: maximum 1 week before the first LP-IRI treatment * 2nd: 4-8 weeks after the whole LP-IRI treatment is completed * 3rd: 12-16 weeks after the whole LP-IRI treatment is completed
