About

The primary purpose of this study is to help answer the following research question(s):

  • To see how the body absorbs, processes, and gets rid of cetuximab when the drug is taken in combination with carboplatin [pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis]
  • To see if any drug interactions occur between cetuximab and carboplatin.

  • The participant has a life expectancy of greater than 3 months.
  • The participant has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2.

Exclusion criteria

  • The participant has symptomatic brain or leptomeningeal metastasis.

  • The participant has a history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of chemical or biologic composition similar to those of cetuximab or carboplatin.
  • The participant has a medical or psychological condition that would not permit the participant to complete the study or sign informed consent.
  • The participant has clinically relevant coronary artery disease or history of myocardial infarction in the last 12 months or high risk of uncontrolled arrhythmia or uncontrolled cardiac insufficiency.
  • The participant, if female, is pregnant (confirmed by serum or urine beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [β-HCG] pregnancy test) or breastfeeding
  • The participant has had a known positive test result for the human immunodeficiency virus.
  • The participant has an active infection (requiring I.V antibiotics), including tuberculosis.

34 participants in 4 patient groups

Cetuximab and Carboplatin (D)
Experimental group
Description:
Group D: Cycle 1 (1 week, combination therapy): 400 milligrams per square meter (mg/m ²) cetuximab administered intravenously (I.V) on week 1,day 1. Carboplatin area under the curve (AUC=5) administered I.V on week 1,day 1. Optional 5- fluorouracil (FU) administered as a 96-hour continuous infusion (C.I.) of 1000 mg/ m ²/day administered starting on week 1, day 1. After 1 cycle, participants may then receive cetuximab as determined by clinical exam or radiological imaging studies until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, or another withdrawal criterion is met. After protocol amendment February 2014, any newly enrolled participants were placed into Group D only.
Treatment:
Drug: 5 - FU
Drug: Cetuximab
Drug: Carboplatin
Cetuximab and Carboplatin (C)
Experimental group
Description:
Group C: Cycle 1 (4 weeks, combination therapy): Carboplatin (AUC=5) administered I.V on week 1, day 1.1000 mg/m ²/day 5-FU administered as a 96-hour C.I. starting on week 1, day 1. 400 mg/m² cetuximab administered I.V on week 2, day 1. 250 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V on week 3 and 4, day 1. Cycle 2-6 (3 weeks, combination therapy): Carboplatin (AUC=5) administered I.V on week1,day1.1000 mg/m ²/d 5-FU as a 96-hour C.I. starting on week1, day1. 250 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V on Week 1-3, day 1. After 6 cycles, participants may then receive cetuximab monotherapy until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, or another withdrawal criterion is met.Due to protocol amendment in September 2011, any newly enrolled participants were placed into cetuximab and carboplatin (C) arm only. After protocol amendment February 2014, any newly enrolled participants will be placed into Group D arm only.
Treatment:

Drug: Cetuximab
Drug: Carboplatin
Cetuximab and Carboplatin (B)
Experimental group
Description:
Group B: Cycle 1 (3 weeks, single-agent cetuximab): 400 mg/m² cetuximab administered I.V on week 1, day 1. 250 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V on weeks 2 and 3, day 1. Cycle 2 (3 weeks, combination therapy): Carboplatin (AUC=5) administered I.V week 1, day 1. 1000 mg/m ²/d 5-FU administered as a 96-hour C.I. starting on week 1, day 1. 250 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V weeks 1- 3,day 1. After 6 cycles, participants may then receive cetuximab monotherapy until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, or another withdrawal criterion is met. Due to protocol amendment in September 2011,any newly enrolled participants were placed into cetuximab and carboplatin (C) arm only. After protocol amendment February 2014, any newly enrolled participants will be placed into Group D arm only.

Group A: Cycle 1 (3 weeks, combination therapy): Carboplatin (AUC=5) administered I.V on week 1, day 1. 1000 mg/m ²/d 5-FU administered as a 96-hour C.I. starting on week 1, day 1. 400 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V on week 2, day 1. 250 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V on week 3, day 1. Cycle 2 (3 weeks, combination therapy): Carboplatin (AUC=5) administered I.V on week 1, day 1. 1000 mg/m ²/d 5-FU administered as a 96-hour C.I. starting on week 1, day 1. 250 mg/m ² cetuximab administered I.V on weeks 1- 3, day 1. After 7 cycles, participants may then receive cetuximab monotherapy until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, or another withdrawal criterion is met.
