Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Clinical Trial of COX and EGFR Inhibition in Familial Polyposis Patients (NCT NCT01187901)

NCT ID: NCT01187901

Last Updated: 2016-06-17

Results Overview

A comparison between the Sulindac-erlotinib and Placebo arms of the change in polyp burden from a 10-centimeter segment of the duodenum, measured as the sum of the diameters of the polyps, in millimeters (mm), from the duodenal segment (6-month polyp burden minus baseline polyp burden).

8.0 mm
Interval 5.0 to 9.5

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 6 months

Population: Classic FAP participants are defined as those presenting with more than 100 colonic adenomas and either (1) multiple family members with a classic FAP phenotype or (2) an adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) mutation in a region of the gene known to correlate with Classic FAP, or (3) both.

A comparison between the Sulindac-erlotinib and Placebo arm Classic FAP subgroups of the change in polyp burden from a 10-centimeter segment of the duodenum, measured as the sum of the diameters of the polyps, in millimeters (mm), from the duodenal segment (6-month polyp burden minus baseline polyp burden).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 6 months

Population: Attenuated FAP participants are defined with the presence of a mutation in a portion of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene known to correlate with attenuated FAP and presentation of a milder phenotype in terms of polyp density in the participant and the family. All participants with attenuated FAP had a confirmed mutation in the APC gene.
