Canadian Profiling and Targeted Agent Utilization Trial (CAPTUR)

Canadian Profiling and Targeted Agent Utilization Trial (CAPTUR): A Phase II Basket Trial

Canadian Profiling and Targeted Agent Utilization Trial (CAPTUR) (NCT03297606) is a Phase 2 interventional studying Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin and Multiple Myeloma, sponsored by Canadian Cancer Trials Group. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

Cancer drugs which target the effects of abnormal gene changes are called 'targeted therapies'. This study, called PM.1 or CAPTUR, will include some targeted therapies that are currently available. The purpose of this study is to find out what are the effects on a patient and their cancer when they are given a targeted therapy drug that is specific to an abnormal gene change in their cancer.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 2 trials evaluate whether a treatment actually works against Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin and continue monitoring side effects. Phase 2 enrolls larger groups (typically 100–300 patients) and produces the first real efficacy signal. A successful Phase 2 readout is what unlocks the much larger Phase 3 confirmatory trials needed for FDA approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

A target enrollment of 720 participants makes this a sizable late-stage trial. Studies in this range typically have enough power to detect clinically meaningful differences from a comparator and to characterize less-common side effects.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: (screening step - non-drug specific) - Adult (≥ 18 yrs) patient with a histologically-proven incurable metastatic solid tumour (excluding primary brain tumours), multiple myeloma or B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (excluding CLL, SLL and HCL), for whom there is no standard treatment known to prolong life, or who has refused such treatment. - You should be able to carry out daily activities with 0 level of ability (ECOG 0)-2. - Patients must have normal organ function as follows: - Absolute neutrophil count: ≥ 1.5 x 10\^9/L for solid tumours; ≥ 1.0 x 10\^9/L for neurologic malignancies - platelet count at least 75 x 10\^9/L (or ≥ 50 x 10\^9/L if bone marrow involvement by myeloma or lymphoma). - Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x UNL. - AST (SGOT)/ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal value unless liver metastases are present in which case they must be \< 5 x ULN; - Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x UNL or calculated or measured kidney function (creatinine clearance) at least 50mg/min/1.73µ\^2 - Patients must have measurable disease - Results must be available from tumour genomic or protein expression testing (if used to identify genetic variants), from one of the initiatives / groups listed in protocol Appendix VII. The test may have been performed on the primary tumour or a metastatic deposit (including bone marrow), or blood, in a diagnostic or research laboratory and must reveal a potentially actionable variant. - Patient consent (Main Study Consent for the screening step) must be appropriately obtained in accordance with applicable local and regulatory requirements. Each patient must sign a consent form prior to the screening step to document their willingness to participate ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

Original Eligibility Criteria

Each patient must sign a consent form prior to the screening step to document their willingness to participate * Patients must be accessible for treatment and follow-up. Patients registered on this trial must be treated and followed at the participating centre or a CCTG IND site. This implies there must be reasonable geographical limits (for example: 1 ½ hour's driving distance) placed on patients being considered for this trial. * Women/men of childbearing potential must have agreed to use a highly effective contraceptive method. Exclusion Criteria: (screening step - non-drug specific) * Patients with prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen. * Patients with ongoing toxicity ≥ CTCAE grade 2, other than peripheral neuropathy or asymptomatic, corrected biochemical toxicities (e.g. hypothyroidism corrected by thyroid replacement), related to prior anti-tumour treatment. Patients with ongoing peripheral neuropathy of ≥ CTCAE grade 3 will be excluded. * Patients concurrently receiving any other anti-cancer therapy (cytotoxic, biologic, radiation, or hormonal other than for replacement) except for medications that are prescribed for supportive care but may potentially have an anti-cancer effect (e.g. megestrol acetate, bisphosphonates) or ongoing castration-intent therapy for prostate cancer. These medications must have been started ≥ one month prior to enrollment on this study. Patients may be on warfarin, low molecular weight heparin or direct factor Xa inhibitors, unless such therapies are prohibited by drug-specific ineligibility criteria. * Patients with known active progressive brain metastases. Patients with previously treated brain metastases are eligible, provided that the patient has not experienced a seizure or had a clinically significant change in neurological status within one month prior to screening. All patients with previously treated brain metastases must be stable (clinically and radiologically) for at least one month after completion of treatment and either off steroid treatment or only taking physiological doses of steroids prior to the screening step. * Patients with clinically significant pre-existing cardiac conditions, including uncontrolled or symptomatic angina, uncontrolled atrial or ventricular arrhythmias, or symptomatic congestive heart failure. * Patients with known left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 40%. * Patients with stroke (including TIA) or acute myocardial infarction within three months prior to the screening step. * Patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding within one month prior to the screening step. * Patients with any other clinically significant medical condition which, in the opinion of the treating physician, makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which could jeopardize compliance with study requirements including, but not limited to: ongoing or active infection, significant uncontrolled hypertension, or severe psychiatric illness/social situations. * Lactating and nursing women * Patients who do not meet drug-specific eligibility requirements for the drug selected by the treating physician.

Who can participate in NCT03297606?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath. Whether you fit any specific trial is a medical decision your doctor needs to confirm — bring the trial information to your treating physician for a full review against your medical history.

How do I contact the trial site for NCT03297606?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.
