What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Assessment of the long-term safety profile of ZD1839 therapy by assessing the incidence of adverse events. Any adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring during treatment and any SAEs occurring within 30 days after stopping the trial drug must be followed to resolution unless, in the investigator's opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the patient's underlying disease

    Measured: Serious adverse events (SAEs) and non-serious AEs were collected from the start of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or 30 days after last visit (up to approximately 120 months)

  2. Number of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Related to ZD1839

    Assessment of the long-term safety profile of ZD1839 therapy by assessing the incidence of adverse events. Any adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring during treatment and any SAEs occurring within 30 days after stopping the trial drug must be followed to resolution unless, in the investigator's opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the patient's underlying disease.

    Measured: Serious adverse events (SAEs) and non-serious AEs were collected from the start of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or 30 days after last visit (up to approximately 120 months)

  3. Number of Other Adverse Events (AEs)

    Assessment of the long-term safety profile of ZD1839 therapy by assessing the incidence of adverse events. Any adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring during treatment and any SAEs occurring within 30 days after stopping the trial drug must be followed to resolution unless, in the investigator's opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the patient's underlying disease.

    Measured: Serious adverse events (SAEs) and non-serious AEs were collected from the start of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or 30 days after last visit (up to approximately 120 months)

  4. Number of Other Adverse Events (AEs) Related to ZD1839

    Assessment of the long-term safety profile of ZD1839 therapy by assessing the incidence of adverse events. Any adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring during treatment and any SAEs occurring within 30 days after stopping the trial drug must be followed to resolution unless, in the investigator's opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the patient's underlying disease.

    Measured: Serious adverse events (SAEs) and non-serious AEs were collected from the start of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or 30 days after last visit (up to approximately 120 months)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Objective disease progressing was assessed using the previous cancer response criteria in the parent ZD1839 trial: ie Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) tumor response criteria, as a 50% increase or an increase of 10 cm2 (whichever is smaller) in the sum of products of all measurable lesions from the overall smallest sum observed (over baseline if no decrease) using the same techniques as baseline; Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase In the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: From randomization until progression or death (up to 120 months)

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    Measured: From randomization until death (up to 120 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Gefitinib in people with Lung Cancer and Breast Cancer, run by AstraZeneca at 7 sites in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jun 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) (time frame: Serious adverse events (SAEs) and non-serious AEs were collected from the start of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or 30 days after last visit (up to approximately 120 months)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Aug 2016.
