Trial Outcomes & Findings for Phase III Study of Two Different Schedules (Weekly and Tri-weekly) of Combination of Gemcitabine and Two Taxanes in MBC (NCT NCT00236899)

NCT ID: NCT00236899

Last Updated: 2011-09-27

Results Overview

TTPD is defined as the time from the day of treatment to first observation of documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever comes first. TTPD was censored at the time of last follow-up for patients who were still alive without progression. Tumor response was assessed in cancer patients by using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), which define when cancer patients improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stabilize"), or worsen ("progression") during treatments. Progressive Disease is a ≥20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions.

Arm A: Docetaxel and Gemcitabine (Tri-weekly)
Docetaxel: 75 milligram per square meter (mg/m²), 60 minute (min) intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 only, to be given 30 min prior to Gemcitabine, repeated every 21 days (tri-weekly) for 10 cycles for complete responders (CRs=disappearance of all target lesions) or partial responders (PRs≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions); 6 cycles for stable disease (SD=small changes that do not meet the above criteria); or until progressive disease (PD≥20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions). Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m², 30 min IV infusion on Days 1 and 8, repeated every 21 days for 10 cycles for CRs or PRs; 6 cycles for SD; or until PD.

Gemcitabine: 1250 mg/m², 30 min IV infusion on Days 1 and 8, repeated every 21 days for 10 cycles for CRs or PRs; 6 cycles for SD; or until PD.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to 49.84 months

Population: Intention to treat (ITT) population is defined as the population of all randomized participants. Treatment arms based on treatment schedule (Weekly vs 3 Weekly) were combined for this population. A total of 33 participants were censored with 16 (13.68%)in the Weekly arm and 17 (13.71%) participants in the 3 Weekly arm.

TTPD is defined as the time from the day of treatment to first observation of documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever comes first. TTPD was censored at the time of last follow-up for patients who were still alive without progression. Tumor response was assessed in cancer patients by using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), which define when cancer patients improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stabilize"), or worsen ("progression") during treatments. Progressive Disease is a ≥20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions.

Population: Intention to treat (ITT) population defined as the population of all randomized participants. Treatment arms based on treatment schedule (Weekly vs 3 Weekly) were combined for this population. A total of 109 (45.2%) participants were censored with 53 (45.3%) in the Weekly arm and 56 (45.2%) participants in the 3 Weekly arm.

OS is the duration from enrollment to time of death as a result of any cause. For participants who are alive, OS is censored at the last contact (date of the last follow-up visit).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to 51.64 months

Population: ITT population defined as the population of all randomized participants. Treatment arms based on Treatment Drug (Docetaxel+Gemcitabine vs Paclitaxel+Gemcitabine) were combined for this population. A total of 109 participants were censored with 55 (46.61%) in the Docetaxel+Gemcitabine arm and 54 (43.90%) in the Paclitaxel+Gemcitabine arm.

OS is the duration from enrollment to time of death as a result of any cause. For participants who are alive, OS is censored at the last contact (date of the last follow-up visit).

RSSC is a valid and reliable measure of psychological and physical distress of cancer patients. Overall QOL is assessed on a 7-point scale (1=Excellent to 7=Extremely Poor). Categories include Excellent, Good, Moderately Good, Neither Good nor Bad, Rather Poor, Poor, and Extremely Poor. Number of responses to the overall QOL by treatment arm are provided. Arms A (Docetaxel and Gemcitabine 3 Weekly) and B (Paclitaxel and Gemcitabine 3 Weekly) were assessed every 3 weeks. Arms C (Docetaxel and Gemcitabine Weekly) and D (Paclitaxel and Gemcitabine Weekly) were assessed every 4 weeks.
