Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Efficacy and Safety Study of Decitabine in Participants With Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) (NCT NCT00744757)

NCT ID: NCT00744757

Last Updated: 2013-09-09

Results Overview

Percentage of participants with response: complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to International Working Group (IWG) 2006 criteria was evaluated. CR in bone marrow is defined as\<=to 5% myeloblasts with normal maturation of all cell lines and persistent dysplasia was noted in peripheral blood hemoglobin \>=11 gram (g) per deciliter (dl), platelets \>=100\*10\^9 liter (l), neutrophils \>=1.0\*10\^9 l, Blasts 0%. Partial response is defined as all CR criteria if abnormal before treatment except: bone marrow blasts decreased by \>=50% over pre-treatment but still \>=5%.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1 of Cycle 2, 4, 6, 8; each Cycle of 28 days and End of treatment (30-42 days after Cycle 8 or early withdrawal)

Population: The efficacy-evaluable (EE) population included all participants who received at least 2 cycles of treatment. Participants who died before receiving 2 complete cycles or were taken off study due to progressive disease were included. Here 'N' specifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure.

Percentage of participants with response: complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to International Working Group (IWG) 2006 criteria was evaluated. CR in bone marrow is defined as\<=to 5% myeloblasts with normal maturation of all cell lines and persistent dysplasia was noted in peripheral blood hemoglobin \>=11 gram (g) per deciliter (dl), platelets \>=100\*10\^9 liter (l), neutrophils \>=1.0\*10\^9 l, Blasts 0%.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1 of Cycle 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, each Cycle of 28 days and End of treatment (30-42 days after Cycle 8 or early withdrawal)

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT) population was defined as all participants who had received at least one dose of treatment. Here 'N' specifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure and 'n' specifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure at given time point.

Hematologic treatment response was assessed as per IWG 2006 criteria. This is measured in erythroid(HI-E), platelet(HI-P) and neutrophil(HI-N) lineages. HI-E response(pre-treatment\<11 gram per deciliter \[g/dl\]):hemoglobin increase by\>=1.5 g/dl and relevant reduction in RBC transfusions by 4 RBC transfusions/8week. HI-P response (pre-treatment\<100\*109/l):absolute increase of \>=30\*10\^9/l for participants starting with\>20\*10\^9/l and increase from \<20\*10\^9/l to\>20\*10\^9/l and by at least 100%. HI-N response (pre-treatment\<1.0\*10\^9/l): at least 100% increase and an absolute increase \>0.5\*10\^9/l.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 8 (each cycle of 28 days)

Population: ITT population was defined as all participants who had received at least 1 dose of study medication.

The quality of life was assessed by the questionnaire QLQ C-30 designed by European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC). EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire to assess the overall quality of life in cancer participants. Most questions used 4-point scale (1=Not at All' to 4=Very Much') and 2 questions: Q29 on overall health and Q30 on overall quality of life uses 7-point scale ranging from 1=Very Poor to 7=Excellent. Higher score indicates better quality of life.
