What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AG-013736Drug

    AG-013736 5 mg BID will be administered orally on continuous schedule. Cycle length is 28 days. If the drug is well tolerated at 5 mg BID, the dose of AG-013736 may be titrated to 7 mg BID and then to a maximum of 10 mg BID.

    Number of cycles: until progression or unacceptable toxicity develops.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (Percentage of Participants With Complete Response [CR] or Partial Response [PR]): Independent Review Committee Assessment

    Percentage of participants with objective response based assessment of confirmed CR or confirmed PR by the Independent Review Committee, according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST Version 1.0). CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and nontarget lesions and no appearance of new lesions. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of the targeted lesions. CR and PR had to be documented on 2 occasions separated by at least 4 weeks.

    Measured: Up to 765 days of treatment at the data cut-off date

  2. Objective Response Rate (Percentage of Participants With Complete Response [CR] or Partial Response [PR]): Investigators Assessment

    Percentage of participants with objective response based assessment of confirmed CR or confirmed PR by the investigator, according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST Version 1.0). CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and nontarget lesions and no appearance of new lesions. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of the targeted lesions. CR and PR had to be documented on 2 occasions separated by at least 4 weeks.

    Measured: Up to 765 days of treatment at the data cut-off date

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time in months from start of study treatment to first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to any cause whichever comes first. PFS was calculated as (first event date minus the date of first dose of study medication plus 1) divided by 30.44. Tumor progression was determined from radiological image (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease [PD]).

    Measured: Up to 1709 days of treatment

  2. Time to Tumor Progression (TTP)

    Time in months from start of study treatment to first documentation of objective tumor progression. TTP was calculated as (first event date minus the date of first dose of study medication plus 1) divided by 30.44. Tumor progression was determined from radiological image (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease [PD]).

    Measured: Up to 1709 days of treatment

  3. Duration of Response

    Time in months from the first documentation of objective tumor response to objective tumor progression or death due to any cause. Duration of tumor response was calculated as (the date of the first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to cancer minus the date of the first CR or PR that was subsequently confirmed plus 1) divided by 30.44. DR was calculated for the subgroup of participants with a confirmed objective tumor response.

    Measured: Start of first confirmed CR or PR to the date of the first event (PD or death) or the last tumor assessment, whichever came first, assessed up to 1709 days.

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from date of first dose of AG-013736 to date of death due to any cause.

    Subjects in whom death is not reported will have their event time censored on the last date the subject is known to be alive.

    Measured: Up to 2002 days (maximum duration of treatment plus follow-up observation)

  5. Number of Participants Analyzed for Population Pharmacokinetics of AG-013736

    Population pharmacokinetic analysis of AG-013736 is conducted by combining current study data with other AG-013736 studies.

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1 (2 hours after morning dose); Cycles 3, 5, and 7 Day 1 predose and 2 hours post morning dose

  6. Plasma Concentration of Soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 1 (s-VEGFR1)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1 predose, Day 1 of Cycle 2 to Cycle 7, and end of treatment/discontinuation (assessed up to 1709 days)

  7. Plasma Concentration of Soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 2 (s-VEGFR2)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1 predose, Day 1 of Cycle 2 to Cycle 7, and end of treatment/discontinuation (assessed up to 1709 days)

  8. Plasma Concentration of Soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 3 (s-VEGFR3)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1 predose, Day 1 of Cycle 2 to Cycle 7, and end of treatment/discontinuation (assessed up to 1709 days)

  9. Plasma Concentration of Soluble Stem Cell Factor Receptor (s-KIT)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1 predose, Day 1 of Cycle 2 to Cycle 7, and end of treatment/discontinuation (assessed up to 1709 days)

  10. Plasma Concentration of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1 predose, Day 1 of Cycle 2 to Cycle 7, and end of treatment/discontinuation (assessed up to 1709 days)

  11. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Number of participants with any adverse events, adverse events graded as Common Terminology Criteria (CTCAE) for Adverse Events Version 3.0 Grade 3 or higher , serious adverse events, or adverse events resulted in discontinuation.

    Measured: Up to 1709 days of treatment plus 28-days follow-up

A Phase 2 study testing AG-013736 in people with Carcinoma, Renal Cell, run by Pfizer at 18 sites in Japan.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 5 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Japan. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 27 Mar 2012). 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?

Objective Response Rate (Percentage of Participants With Complete Response [CR] or Partial Response [PR]): Independent Review Committee Assessment (time frame: Up to 765 days of treatment at the data cut-off date). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00569946, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 5 Jun 2019.
