About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Placebo-controlled Phase II Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of SU011248 Versus Placebo in Patients With Advanced Urothelial Transitional Cell Carcinoma Who Have Failed or Are Intolerant to Cisplatin-based Chemotherapy

The purpose of this study is to find out if SU011248 works and if it is safe in patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

The study objectives include the determination of the antitumor effect of SU011248 in patients with urothelial transitional cell carcinoma and to also determine the toxicities and tolerability of SU011248 in patients with urothelial transitional cell carcinoma who have failed or are intolerant to cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

The primary endpoint of the study is to compare progression free survival at 4 months in patients who received SU011248 plus BSC versus patients who received placebo plus BSC

The secondary endpoint is to compare the objective response rate and duration of response in patients who received SU011248 plus BSC versus patients who received placebo plus BSC, to describe the QOL and safety profile of SU011248 when compared to placebo and to describe the overall survival in patients who received SU011248 plus BSC versus patients who received placebo plus BSC

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SU011248 in people with Urothelial Cancer and Bladder Cancer, run by AHS Cancer Control Alberta at 5 sites in Canada.

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 22 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Canada. 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 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?

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?

Progression Free Survival (time frame: 4 months). 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 22 Aug 2018.
