Trial Outcomes & Findings for BIBW 2992 as add-on to Gem/Cis in Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer (NCT NCT01679405)

NCT ID: NCT01679405

Last Updated: 2019-09-06

Results Overview

In part A the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BIBW 2992 administered continuously to the standard therapy of Gemcitabine / Cisplatin (Gem/Cis) (administered together on day 1 and 8 of a three-week cycle) will be evaluated in a 2 step dose escalation. Safety and toxicity will be evaluated as described and considered primary for part B of the study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Treatment period: up to eight cycles (maximum 8 months). 12 months follow-up period.

Median time to progress (according to RECIST 1.1 criteria) including the 95% confidence intervals were determined using Kaplan-Meier estimates. Time from start of treatment to first documentation of objective tumour progression. Deaths were censored at the time of death.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Time from start of treatment to death due to any cause. Time to last observation will be used if a patient has not died and OS for the patient will be considered censored. Estimated time period: up to 76 weeks

Median overall survival time including the 95% confidence interval were determined using Kaplan-Meier estimates.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Treatment period: up to eight cycles (maximum 8 months).

Population: For one patient, there was no CT assessment.

Response was assessed by means of RECIST 1.1 criteria for target lesions, non-target lesions and the appearance of new lesions. Objective response was defined as the CR, PR or SD at end of treatment

Population: For one patient there was no CT assessment.

Tumor control rate is defined as the best tumour response (confirmed partial or complete response, stable disease) that is achieved until end of treatment according to Recist 1.1.
