Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study Comparing Veliparib Plus FOLFIRI Versus Placebo Plus FOLFIRI With or Without Bevacizumab in Previously Untreated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (NCT NCT02305758)

Last Updated: 2018-11-20

Results Overview

PFS was defined as the number of days from the date the participant was randomized to the date the participant experienced an event of disease progression or death, whichever occurred first. All events of disease progression were included, whether the participant was still taking or had discontinued study drug. Events of death were included for participants who had not experienced an event of disease progression, if the death occurred within 8 weeks of the last evaluable disease progression assessment. If the participant did not have an event of disease progression and the participant had not died as defined above, data were censored at the date of the participant's last evaluable disease progression assessment. The PFS distribution was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. Point estimates and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for the PFS distribution quartiles are provided.

Measure	Veliparib + Modified FOLFIRI ± Bevacizumab Dosing of oral veliparib (200 mg) began 2 days prior to the start of FOLFIRI and continued twice a day (BID) for a total of 7 consecutive days. At the discretion of the Investigator, bevacizumab (5 mg/kg) could be administered intravenously (IV) immediately preceding FOLFIRI. Modified FOLFIRI was administered as irinotecan 180 mg/m\^2 (90-minute infusion ± 30 minutes); leucovorin 400 mg/m\^2 (90-minute infusion ± 30 minutes); and saline bolus (up to 15-minute infusion) immediately followed by fluorouracil 2400 mg/m\^2 (46-hour continuous infusion ± 4 hours) starting on Day 1 of each 14-day cycle.	Placebo + FOLFIRI ± Bevacizumab Dosing of oral placebo (200 mg) began 2 days prior to the start of FOLFIRI and continued twice a day (BID) for a total of 7 consecutive days. At the discretion of the Investigator, bevacizumab (5 mg/kg) could be administered intravenously (IV) immediately preceding FOLFIRI. Standard FOLFIRI was administered as irinotecan 180 mg/m\^2 (90-minute infusion ± 30 minutes); leucovorin 400 mg/m\^2 (90-minute infusion ± 30 minutes); and fluorouracil bolus 400 mg/m\^2 (up to 15-minute infusion) immediately followed by fluorouracil 2400 mg/m\^2 (46-hour continuous infusion ± 4 hours) on Day 1 of each 14-day cycle.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Survival information was to be collected 4 wks after the last study visit, continuing every 4 wks for 1 yr, then every 8 wks for up to 2 more yrs or until death. The maximum observed follow up duration at the overall survival analysis time was 914 days.

Population: All randomized participants

Overall survival was defined as the number of days from the date that the participant was randomized to the date of the participant's death. All events of death were included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking or had discontinued study drug. If a participant had not died, the data were censored at the date last known to be alive. The OS distribution was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. Point estimates and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for the OS distribution quartiles are provided.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Per protocol, post-baseline tumor assessment was conducted every 8 weeks from Cycle 1 Day 1 until radiographic progression. The maximum observed follow up duration at the progression-free survival analysis time was 579 days.

Population: All randomized participants

ORR was defined as the proportion of participants with a complete (CR) or partial response (PR) based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.1) for target lesions, assessed by computed tomography (CT). Complete response (CR) was defined as disappearance of all target lesions; partial response (PR) ≥30% decrease in the the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. For participants who underwent surgery, ORR was not evaluated after surgery.
