Trial Outcomes & Findings for Brentuximab Vedotin in Relapsed/Refractory Germ Cell Tumors (NCT NCT02689219)

NCT ID: NCT02689219

Last Updated: 2019-12-10

Results Overview

Measured by RECIST v1.1 and tumor markers (AFP and BhCG). CR - disappearance of all target lesions and normalization of serum tumor markers for at least 4 weeks. When only evidence of disease is elevated serum tumor markers, then values must fall below the upper limit of normal for the assay and remain at that level for at least 4 weeks. PR - at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions compared to the baseline sum diameters for at least 2 measurements 1 month apart with the serum markers as stable/decreasing. When only evidence of disease is elevated serum tumor markers, then values must fall \>=90% below baseline pretreatment levels for BhCG or 50% decrease below baseline pretreatment levels for AFP and persist for 6 weeks. If both tumor markers are elevated and one falls below 90% the other should fall at least below 50% of baseline pretreatment levels.The percent of patients with objective response and its 95% exact confidence interval will be provided.

Participant Flow

This protocol was a two cohort Phase II study. A Simon two-stage design was used. One cohort (CD30 negative/unknown) met the stopping rule for lack of efficacy at the first stage interim analysis. The first stage of the second cohort (CD30 positive) was not completed because the study was stopped early due to lack of funding.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 1 year

Population: All patients who received at least one dose of study medication and at least one evaluable assessment after treatment.

Measured by RECIST v1.1 and tumor markers (AFP and BhCG). CR - disappearance of all target lesions and normalization of serum tumor markers for at least 4 weeks. When only evidence of disease is elevated serum tumor markers, then values must fall below the upper limit of normal for the assay and remain at that level for at least 4 weeks. PR - at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions compared to the baseline sum diameters for at least 2 measurements 1 month apart with the serum markers as stable/decreasing. When only evidence of disease is elevated serum tumor markers, then values must fall \>=90% below baseline pretreatment levels for BhCG or 50% decrease below baseline pretreatment levels for AFP and persist for 6 weeks. If both tumor markers are elevated and one falls below 90% the other should fall at least below 50% of baseline pretreatment levels.The percent of patients with objective response and its 95% exact confidence interval will be provided.
