Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The trial was terminated prematurely on August 28, 2008 due to the inability to recruit the planned number of subjects in order to provide meaningful efficacy data. There were no safety concerns regarding the study in the decision to terminate the trial.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks) or death
PFS was defined as the time from enrollment to first documentation of objective tumor progression or to death on study due to any cause, whichever occurred first. If tumor progression data included more than 1 date, the first date was used. PFS was to be calculated as (first event date - the date of enrollment +1)/7.
From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks) or death

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Response (OR) According to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)
Time Frame: From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks)
OR=from start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence. Complete response (CR)=disappearance of all target lesions. Partial response (PR)= ? 30% decrease in sum of longest dimensions of lesions taking as reference baseline sum longest dimensions. Progressive disease (PD)= ? 20% increase in sum of longest dimensions of lesions taking as reference smallest sum of the longest dimensions since treatment started, or appearance of ? 1 new lesion. Stable disease (SD)=neither shrinkage for PR or increase for PD taking as reference smallest sum of longest dimensions since treatment start.
From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks)
Duration of Response (DR)
Time Frame: From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks) or death due to cancer
DR was defined as the time from the first documentation of objective tumor response (CR or PR) to the first documentation of objective tumor progression or to death on study. If tumor progression data included more than 1 date, the first date was used. DR was to be calculated as (the end date for DR - first CR or PR that was subsequently confirmed +1)/7.
From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks) or death due to cancer
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: From start of study treatment until death
OS was defined as the time from date of enrollment to date of death due to any cause. OS was to be calculated as (the event date - the date of enrollment +1)/7.
From start of study treatment until death
Time to Tumor Progression (TTP)
Time Frame: From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks)
TTP was defined as the time from enrollment to first documentation of objective tumor progression. If tumor progression data included more than 1 date, the first date was used. TTP was to be calculated as (first event date - the date of enrollment +1)/7.
From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks)
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)
Time Frame: From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks)
The clinical benefit rate (CBR) was the measure for clinical benefit (CB) and was defined as the percent of subjects with confirmed CR or confirmed PR, or confirmed SD according to RECIST, relative to the total analysis population. CRs were those that persisted on repeat imaging study ?4 weeks after initial documentation of response.
From start of treatment until Day 1 of every other cycle (8 weeks)

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
