A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase II Study of Vismodegib (GDC-0449, Systemic Hedgehog Antagonist) With Concurrent Chemotherapy and Bevacizumab As First-Line Therapy for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Vismodegib 150 mg, Placebo to vismodegib, and 3 other interventions for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer. Completed, enrolled 199 participants.
Detailed Summary
This was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of vismodegib (GDC-0449) added to biochemotherapy standard-of-care regimens for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), with treatment until disease progression. Patients received either FOLFOX (FOL=leucovorin calcium \[folinic acid\], F=fluorouracil, OX=oxaliplatin) or FOLFIRI (FOL=leucovorin calcium \[folinic acid\] F=fluorouracil, IRI=irinotecan hydrochloride) chemotherapy with bevacizumab. The decision of which regimen (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) to use was made by the treating physician and patient. Patients were randomized to receive vismodegib or placebo and were stratified based on the chemotherapy regimen chosen and whether or not Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) measurable disease was present at baseline.

Interventions
Vismodegib 150 mg was provided in hard gelatin capsules in 3 different strengths, 25 mg, 125 mg, and 150 mg.
Placebo to vismodegib consisted of the excipients for vismodegib without the active molecule in hard gelatin capsules matching the active drug product in color and size.
Bevacizumab 5 mg/kg was administered intravenously (IV) over 90 minutes for the first infusion, shortening to 60 and 30 minutes for subsequent infusions.
Following administration of bevacizumab, patients received oxaliplatin 85 mg/m\^2 IV administered over 90 minutes concurrently with folinic acid 400 mg/m\^2 (d,I-racemic form, or 200 mg/m\^2 I-isomer form) IV administered over 120 minutes, then fluorouracil 400 mg/m\^2 administered as an IV bolus, then 2400 mg/m\^2 administered as a continuous IV infusion over 46 hours.
Following administration of bevacizumab, patients received irinotecan 180 mg/m\^2 IV administered over 90 minutes concurrently with folinic acid 400 mg/m\^2 (d,I-racemic form, or 200 mg/m\^2 I-isomer form) administered IV over 120 minutes, then fluorouracil 400 mg/m\^2 administered as an IV bolus, then fluorouracil 2400 mg/m\^2 administered as a continuous IV infusion over 46 hours.
