What is being measured

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

  1. PFS Rate at 36 Weeks (After 9 Months)

    The rate (probability) of being progression free at Week 36. Progression Free Survival (PFS) was defined according to RECIST version 1.0 from the time of first study drug administration to the first time of either objective tumour progression, the appearance of ≥1 new tumour lesion(s), occurrence or significant progression of malignant ascites, tumour related death, or the time when patients were censored at last known follow up. The rate is the Kaplan-Meier estimated percent probability.

    Measured: 36 weeks (after 9 months)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. PFS Rate at 12 Weeks (After 3 Months) and 24 Weeks ( After 6 Months)

    The rate (probability) of being progression free at Week 12 and Week 24. Progression Free Survival (PFS) was defined according to RECIST version 1.0 from the time of first study drug administration to the first time of either objective tumour progression, the appearance of ≥1 new tumour lesion(s), occurrence or significant progression of malignant ascites, tumour related death, or the time when patients were censored at last known follow up. The rate is the Kaplan-Meier estimated percent probability.

    Measured: 12 weeks (after 3 months) and 24 weeks ( after 6 months)

  2. Time to Tumour Progression

    Time to Tumour Progression according to RECIST version 1.0 , CA-125 (ovarian tumour marker) levels and RECIST + CA-125 levels.

    For CA-125, progressive disease was defined on the basis of progressive serial elevations of CA-125 according to the following criteria:

    Patients with elevated CA-125 pre-treatment and normalisation of CA-125 had to show evidence of CA-125 levels ≥2 x ULN on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart. or Patients with elevated CA-125 pre-treatment that never normalised had to show evidence of CA-125 levels ≥2 x the nadir value on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart. or Patients with CA-125 in the normal range pre-treatment had to show evidence of CA-125 levels ≥2 x ULN on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart.

    Composite (RECIST+CA-125) endpoint is the RECIST progressive disease (PD) if it occurred or the CA-125 PD if it occurred in the absence of RECIST PD.

    Measured: 9 months

  3. Time to Death

    This end point was not determined as no patients died during the trial.

    Measured: 9 months

  4. Incidence and Intensity of Adverse Events With Grading According CTCAE

    Incidence and intensity of Adverse Events with grading according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE version 3.0).

    Measured: First drug administration until 28 days after last drug administration,up until 309 days

  5. Clinical Relevant Abnormalities for Laboratory Parameters

    Clinical Relevant Abnormalities for laboratory parameters. Any new or clinically relevant worsening of baseline conditions was reported as Adverse Events.

    Measured: First drug administration until 28 days after last drug administration, up until 309 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BIBF1120 in people with Ovarian Neoplasms, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 11 sites in United Kingdom.

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 11 inclusion and 14 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 15 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 11 sites in United Kingdom. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Dec 2014). 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?

PFS Rate at 36 Weeks (After 9 Months) (time frame: 36 weeks (after 9 months)). 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 NCT00710762, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 Aug 2016.
