About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized Double-Blind Phase II/III Study in the First-Line Treatment of Advanced Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) of the Urothelium Comparing Vinflunine/Gemcitabine to Placebo/Gemcitabine in Patients Who Are Ineligible to Receive Cisplatin-Based Therapy

The purpose of this study is to test an investigational drug, vinflunine (BMS-710485), in combination with gemcitabine in patients with Transitional Cell Carcinoma who cannot be treated with cisplatin. This study will help to determine whether vinflunine in combination with gemcitabine will extend the time period until further growth of the tumor more than gemcitabine alone.

Being tested
Vinflunine, Gemcitabine, Placebo
Keywords
Advanced or metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium

What is being measured

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

  1. Median Progression-free Survival (PFS) as Defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria in Participants With Advanced Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) of the Urothelium

    PFS survival is defined as the time between randomization and the date of progression or death, whichever occurs first, before or after treatment discontinuation. For those still on study and those who remain alive and have not progressed after treatment discontinuation, PFS will be censored on the date of the last tumor assessment.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Tumor Response Rate in Participants With A Best Response of Complete (CR) or Partial (PR) as Defined by RECIST criteria

    Tumor response rate is defined as the number of participants in that arm whose best response is PR or CR, divided by the total number of randomized participants in the arm.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

  2. Overall Survival of Participants With TCC of the Urothelium

    Survival duration is defined as the time (in months) from randomization until death. For those participants who have not died, survival duration will be censored at the last date the participant was known to be alive.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

  3. Disease Control Rate in Participants With Best Response of CR, PR, or Stable Disease (SD)

    Disease control rate is defined as the number of participants in that arm whose best response is PR, CR, or SD, divided by the total number of randomized participants in the treatment arm.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

  4. Duration of Response in Participants With Best Response of CR or PR

    Duration of response is computed for participants with best response of CR or PR; the duration is measured from the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR, whichever is recorded first, until the date of documented progressive disease or death. Participants who neither relapse nor die will be censored on the date of their last tumor assessment.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

  5. Number of Participants With Outcome of Death, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Adverse Events (AEs) and AEs Leading to Discontinuation

    An AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongs existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, results in drug dependency or drug abuse, or is an important medical event.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

  6. Number of Participants With Serum Chemistry Abnormalities by Worst Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) Grade

    Measured: Following Day 1 to no longer than 30 days after last dose of study medication

  7. Number of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Findings by Worst CTC Grade

    Measured: Following Day 1 to no longer than 30 days after last dose of study medication

  8. Time to Response in Participants With Best Response of CR or PR

    Time to response is defined as the number of months from the first dose of study therapy until measurement criteria are met for PR or CR, whichever is recorded first.

    Measured: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Vinflunine and Gemcitabine in people with Bladder Cancer and Transitional Cell Carcinoma, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 112 sites in 16 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 5 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 7 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 112 sites in United States, Poland, Spain, Canada, Denmark and 11 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Median Progression-free Survival (PFS) as Defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria in Participants With Advanced Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) of the Urothelium (time frame: Until tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of patient consent, or discontinuation by investigator decision). 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 7 Dec 2015.
