Trial Outcomes & Findings for S9811 Hydroxyurea in Treating Patients With Unresectable Benign Meningioma (NCT NCT00003590)

NCT ID: NCT00003590

Last Updated: 2016-05-20

Results Overview

Complete Response (CR)is a complete disappearance of all measurable and evaluable disease. No new lesions, no disease related symptoms, no evidence of non-evaluable disease. Partial Response (PR)is greater than or equal to 50% decrease under baseline in sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of all measurable lesions. No progression of evaluable disease, no new lesions. Confirmation of CR or PR means a repeat scan at least 3 weeks apart documented before progression. No response means that patient did not achieve complete or partial response (either confirmed or unconfirmed).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Patients treated for 2 years or progression. If responding can continue at physician's discretion.

Population: All eligible patients who started treatment were included in assessing response estimates.

Complete Response (CR)is a complete disappearance of all measurable and evaluable disease. No new lesions, no disease related symptoms, no evidence of non-evaluable disease. Partial Response (PR)is greater than or equal to 50% decrease under baseline in sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of all measurable lesions. No progression of evaluable disease, no new lesions. Confirmation of CR or PR means a repeat scan at least 3 weeks apart documented before progression. No response means that patient did not achieve complete or partial response (either confirmed or unconfirmed).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Patients were assessed for adverse events 4 weeks after starting treatment. Assessments for adverse events continued every 3 months for the duration of protocol therapy. On average patients remained on therapy for 8 months

Population: Eligible patients who had received any hydroxyurea were included in the adverse event summaries. Any CTC 2.0 event of Grade 3 (serious), Grade 4 (life threatening) or Grade 5 (fatal) which were deemed to be related to protocol treatment are included.

Adverse Events (AEs) are reported by CTC 2.0 terminology. For each patient, worst grade of each event type is reported. Grade 3 - Severe, Grade 4 - Life-threatening, Grade 5 - Fatal
