Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Efficacy and Safety of Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin Compared With Capecitabine as First Line Chemotherapy for Metastatic Breast Cancer (P04445/MK-2746-071) (NCT NCT00266799)

NCT ID: NCT00266799

Last Updated: 2017-06-08

Results Overview

TTP was defined as the time from onset of treatment with study drug until first evidence/diagnosis of progressive disease or - in the absence of any diagnosis of progressive disease - until the participant´s death. Diagnosis of progressive disease was done according to RECIST (Version 1.0) and/or investigator assessment based on RECIST. RECIST criteria used changes in the largest diameter of target/non-target lesions. Target (measurable) lesions were up to a maximum of 5 per organ \& \>20 mm by clinical imaging (\>=10 mm with spiral CT scan). Non-target lesions were all other lesions.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From Day 1 (Cycle 1) until First Evidence/Diagnosis of Progressive Disease or Death

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT): 7 in PLD group \& 3 participants in Capecitabine group were missing response assessments. TTP Population: included participants in view of major protocol violations/deviations, i.e. tumor-relevant inclusion/exclusion criteria, treatment compliance, tumor assessments by RECIST with maximum 4 month interval between assessments.

TTP was defined as the time from onset of treatment with study drug until first evidence/diagnosis of progressive disease or - in the absence of any diagnosis of progressive disease - until the participant´s death. Diagnosis of progressive disease was done according to RECIST (Version 1.0) and/or investigator assessment based on RECIST. RECIST criteria used changes in the largest diameter of target/non-target lesions. Target (measurable) lesions were up to a maximum of 5 per organ \& \>20 mm by clinical imaging (\>=10 mm with spiral CT scan). Non-target lesions were all other lesions.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From Day 1 (Cycle 1) until First Evidence/Diagnosis of Progressive Disease or Death

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT) population included all randomized participants.

Overall responses by investigator assessment/RECIST criteria of participant responses; CR=disappearance of target/nontarget lesions + PR=30% decrease in longest diameter sum (noting baseline sum) of target lesions. RECIST used changes in the largest diameter of target/non-target lesions. Target lesions were up to a maximum of 5 per organ \& \>20 mm by clinical imaging (\>=10 mm with spiral CT scan). Non-target lesions were all other lesions. Evaluation of progress was repeated every 3 months (+/-7 days) post first date of lesion measurements, in detection absence until the participant´s death.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From Screening to Day 1 of every Treatment Cycle up to 12 Cycles

Population: ITT: included all randomized participants. There were only a few participants who completed more than 12 cycles due to the longer duration of each cycle.

QoL questionnaire was an EORTC QLQ-C30 \& SSQ integration. Scores on the SSQ scale ranged from 1 (very much worse) - 7 (very much better). SSQ consisted of 4 items which corresponded to core domains in the 30 Item EORTC QLQ-C30, such as improvement/deterioration in physical functioning, emotional functioning, social functioning, global QoL. Percentages were based on number of participants at each cycle \& rounded to the nearest whole number. Early Withdrawal Questionnaires were obtained in 7-14 days of study drug final dose.
