Trial Outcomes & Findings for Pembrolizumab Activity in Patients With Homologous Recombination Competent and Deficient Tumors (NCT NCT03274661)

NCT ID: NCT03274661

Last Updated: 2023-10-19

Results Overview

Immune-related Response Criteria (irRC) will be utilized for assessment of response to therapy, defined as the percent of participants who achieved complete or partial response. Per irRC, for target lesions assessed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all lesions in two consecutive observations not less than 4 weeks apart; Partial Response (PR), ≥50% decrease in tumor burden compared with baseline in two observations at least 4 weeks apart.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 20 weeks

Population: Two participants were excluded from analysis: one was deemed not response-evaluable after a further review of baseline CT images demonstrated not clearly measurable disease; another deteriorated rapidly due to tumor progression within a week of the first dose of treatment.

Immune-related Response Criteria (irRC) will be utilized for assessment of response to therapy, defined as the percent of participants who achieved complete or partial response. Per irRC, for target lesions assessed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all lesions in two consecutive observations not less than 4 weeks apart; Partial Response (PR), ≥50% decrease in tumor burden compared with baseline in two observations at least 4 weeks apart.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 20 weeks

Population: Two participants were excluded from analysis: one was deemed not response-evaluable after a further review of baseline CT images demonstrated not clearly measurable disease; another deteriorated rapidly due to tumor progression within a week of the first dose of treatment.

Immune-related Response Criteria (irRC) will be utilized for assessment of response to therapy. PFS will be defined as the time from treatment start to time of disease progression or death, whichever comes first. Per irRC, for target lesions assessed by CT or MRI: Progressive Disease (PD), at least 25% increase in tumor burden compared with nadir (at any single time point) in two consecutive observations at least 4 weeks apart.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 years

Population: Two participants were excluded from analysis: one was deemed not response-evaluable after a further review of baseline CT images demonstrated not clearly measurable disease; another deteriorated rapidly due to tumor progression within a week of the first dose of treatment.

Immune-related Response Criteria (irRC) will be utilized for assessment of response to therapy, defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to end of study or death, whichever comes first. Per irRC, for target lesions assessed by CT or MRI:Complete Response (CR) is the disappearance of all lesions in two consecutive observations not less than 4 weeks apart; Partial Response (PR) is a ≥50% decrease in tumor burden compared with baseline in two observations at least 4 weeks apart; and Progressive Disease (PD) is at least 25% increase in tumor burden compared with nadir (at any single time point) in two consecutive observations at least 4 weeks apart. Everything else is considered Stable Disease (SD).
