Trial Outcomes & Findings for 6-TG, Capecitabine and Celecoxib Plus TMZ or CCNU for Anaplastic Glioma Patients (NCT NCT00504660)

NCT ID: NCT00504660

Last Updated: 2012-01-11

Results Overview

Progression-free Survival (PFS) at 12 months measured as percentage of participants that are alive and progression-free at 12 months (anaplastic tumors). A combination of neurological examination and MRI brain scan used to define overall response or progression.

Participant Flow

Recruitment period: September 23, 2003 to June 15, 2009. All patients recruited at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Of the 75 enrolled participants, one was excluded prior to assignment to groups. The Anaplastic Tumors Arms (Arm 1 and Arm 2) were combined for recruitment demographics and data collection.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: Results from TMZ and CCNU treatment arms (Anaplastic Tumor-Glioma Arms 1 \& 2) were combined in the final analysis because there was no statistically significant difference between them.

Progression-free Survival (PFS) at 12 months measured as percentage of participants that are alive and progression-free at 12 months (anaplastic tumors). A combination of neurological examination and MRI brain scan used to define overall response or progression.
