Brief Title: LCI-GI-APX-NIN-001: Nintedanib in Metastatic Appendiceal Carcinoma
Official Title: LCI-GI-APX-NIN-001: Nintedanib in Metastatic Appendiceal Carcinoma
Study ID: NCT03287947
Brief Summary: The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the disease control rate of nintedanib in subjects with metastatic appendiceal cancer for whom initial fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy has failed. Based on previous studies, the anticancer activity of nintedanib in lung and ovarian cancer trials, along with the similarities between appendiceal and colorectal cancer and potentially ovarian cancer, warrant additional investigation for the optimal treatment of metastatic appendiceal carcinomas.
Detailed Description: The primary study objective is to evaluate the disease control rate. The secondary study objectives are to evaluate safety and toxicity, objective response rate, overall and 6-month progression free survival, and overall survival. Exploratory study objectives include evaluation of serum and ascites VEGF, hypertension, and paracentesis frequency in subjects with ascites at study entry.
