Trial Outcomes & Findings for Abraxane Therapy in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer Who Failed First-Line Gemcitabine Therapy (NCT NCT00691054)

NCT ID: NCT00691054

Last Updated: 2017-05-11

Results Overview

Overall survival was measured from the start of treatment (date of first dose of Abraxane® therapy) to date of death due to any cause. For patients who are alive, follow-up time will be censored at date of last contact.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Overall survival was measured from the start of treatment (date of first dose of Abraxane® therapy) to date of death due to any cause. For patients who are alive, follow-up time will be censored at date of last contact.

One treatment-cycle is 28 days with chemotherapy (Abraxane® 100 mg/m2) given on day 1, 8, and 15, followed by rest on week 4. Treatment cycles will be repeated every 28 days for as long as disease is not progressing and patient tolerates treatment
Overall Survival Rate at 6 Months
58 percentage of participants
Interval 33.0 to 76.0

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Number of participants showing complete or partial response to protocol therapy according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors(RECIST) v1.0 criteria for target lesions and assessed by CT/MRI. Per RECIST, Complete Response (CR) = Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>= 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

Number of Participants Showing Stable Disease
6 participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Median number of months participants experienced progression-free survival, according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors(RECIST) v1.0 criteria for target lesions and assessed by CT/MRI. Per RECIST, progression is defined as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.
