No phase specifiedBiomarker/Laboratory analysis, Natural history/EpidemiologyActiveUnder 21OtherCCLG-PK-2007-02
PK 2007 02, EU-20743, NCT00514345

Objectives

Primary

  1. To determine the CYP3A5 genotype in young patients with cancer who have received ifosfamide.
  2. To document renal function and nephrotoxicity on one occasion between 1 month and 5 years after completion of ifosfamide treatment.
  3. To determine the relationship between CYP3A5 genotype and ifosfamide nephrotoxicity.

Secondary

  1. To compare the measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (using a radioisotope clearance method) with that calculated using the Cole (weight and creatinine) model.

Entry Criteria

Disease Characteristics:

  • Received ifosfamide before the age of 21 as part of treatment for cancer including, but not limited to, any of the following:
    • Ewing sarcoma
    • Rhabdomyosarcoma
    • Non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma


  • No renal infiltration by tumor at any stage of illness


  • May have been treated on one of the following clinical trials:


Prior/Concurrent Therapy:

  • See Disease Characteristics
  • Recovered from the acute non-renal toxicity of the last course of chemotherapy
  • No other prior nephrotoxic chemotherapy (e.g., cisplatin, carboplatin, melphalan, or high-dose methotrexate)
  • No prior radiotherapy to a field including the kidneys
  • No prior removal of renal tissue
  • No concurrent ifosfamide

Patient Characteristics:

  • Clinically stable to undergo renal investigations
  • No pre-existing renal impairment (glomerular or tubular) prior to treatment with ifosfamide
  • No known nephrotoxicity for which nephrotoxic supportive treatment (aminoglycosides, amphotericin, acyclovir, cyclosporine, or tacrolimus) was a major contributory cause of renal damage

Expected Enrollment

300

Outcomes

Primary Outcome(s)

CYP3A5 genotype
Renal function and nephrotoxicity
Relationship between CYP3A5 genotype and ifosfamide nephrotoxicity

Secondary Outcome(s)

Comparison of measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with the Cole model

Outline

This is a multicenter study.

Nephrotoxicity assessment is performed in patients who have not undergone prior assessment*.

 [Note: *Nephrotoxicity assessment is performed once between 1 month and 5 years after completion of ifosfamide chemotherapy.]

All patients will undergo a single blood sample collection. DNA will be extracted from this sample and genotyped for the known functional polymorphisms in CYP3A5. The technique of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) will be used to detect any single nucleotide polymorphisms in CYP3A5.

DNA may be obtained from stored tumor samples from patients for whom the results of renal investigations are available, but for whom blood is not available for CYP3A5 genotyping.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol.
