What participants receive

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

  • Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223)Drug

    The required volume of study drug to be administered to a patient was calculated using the patient's body weight.

Study groups in NCT00748046
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Radium-223 chloride (Xofigo, BAY88-8223)ExperimentalThe patients will receive Radium-223 chloride as an escalating dose of either 50, 100 or 200 kBq/kg b.w. (0.0014, 0.0027 or 0.0054 mCi/kg).
Receives: Drug: Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223)

What is being measured

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

  1. All safety data, including adverse events, occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events, changes in laboratory variables, vital signs, ECG, physical examination, long term radiation toxicity, including results of bone marrow biopsy

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Biodistribution, dosimetry and pharmacokinetics (whole body activity assessment, the counts in region-of-interest (ROIs) from anterior and posterior whole-body images, and the assay of activity in blood

    Measured: 6 days after injection

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Post-treatment PSA effect: PSA decline, time to PSA progression after PSA response

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Post-treatment bone markers effect: Changes in bone marker values from pre- to post administration

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) enumeration and role of molecular profiling of CTC in predicting sensitivity to treatment and treatment response

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223) in people with Prostate Cancer and Metastases, run by Bayer at 1 site in United States.

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 22 inclusion and 15 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 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 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.

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?

All safety data, including adverse events, occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events, changes in laboratory variables, vital signs, ECG, physical examination, long term radiation toxicity, including results of bone marrow biopsy (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT00748046, 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 25 Jun 2014.
