What participants receive

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

  • AMG 655Drug

    Also called Conatumumab

    AMG 655 is an investigational, fully human monoclonal agonist antibody that selectively binds to Death Receptor-5 (DR5).

  • PlaceboOther

    Inactive dummy AMG 655 (to maintain blind)

  • DoxorubicinDrug

    Antineoplastic antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces peucetius. It is a hydroxy derivative of Daunorubicin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing AMG 655 and Doxorubicin in people with Locally Advanced or Metastatic, Unresectable Soft Tissue Sarcoma and Sarcoma, run by Amgen.

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 6 inclusion and 2 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 25 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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: Length of Study). 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 25 May 2015.
