What participants receive

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

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Lenalidomide and DexamethasoneExperimentalLenalidomide 25mg by mouth (PO) once daily (QD) on Days 1-21 of each 28 day cycle; When creatinine (CrCl) clearance <60 mL/min, the initial dose was 10mg and the dose could be increased to 15mg after 2 cycles if the investigator judged therapeutic effect was insufficient and tolerability was acceptable. Dexamethasone 40 mg by PO once QD on days 1-4, 9-12 and 17-20 of each 28 day cycle for the first 4 cycles and Days 1-4 for the remaining cycles beginning at Cycle 5.
Receives: Drug: Lenalidomide; Drug: Dexamethasone

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE)

    A TEAE was defined as any AE that started on or after the first dose of study drug, and within End of Study (EOS) (28 days after the last dose of study drug received). A serious AE (SAE) = any AE which results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or constitutes an important medical event. The intensity of AEs were graded 1 to 5 according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.0. For all other AEs not described in the CTCAE criteria, the intensity was assessed by the investigator as mild grade (Grade 1), moderate (grade 2), severe (grade 3), life-threatening (grade 4) or death (grade 5)

    Measured: Day 1 of study drug through 28 days after the last dose of study drug; maximum treatment duration was 60.3 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Myeloma Response Rate

    Overall myeloma response rate was determined by the investigator using the Myeloma Response Determination Criteria adapted from Bladé criteria. A responder is any patient who showed at least a partial response. Overall myeloma response rate is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a Complete Response (CR), plus a Remission Response (RR), plus a Partial Response (PR). A CR is the disappearance of monoclonal paraprotein and maintained for ≥ 6 weeks. RR is a 75-99% reduction in the level of the serum monoclonal paraprotein compared to baseline; 90-99% reduction in 24-hr urinary light chain excretion. PR is a 50-74% reduction in the level of monoclonal paraprotein compared to baseline; 50-89% reduction in 24-hr urinary light chain excretion.

    Measured: From the time of the first dose of study drug to study completion; median duration on study was 42.1 weeks

  2. Kaplan-Meier Estimates of Duration of Response (DoR)

    Duration of response was defined as the time from the first observation of a response (CR, RR or PR) to the first documented disease progression or relapse. For participants who did not progress during the study, duration of response was censored at the last adequate response assessment showing evidence of no disease progression. Disease progression is defined as an increase in M-protein serum monoclonal paraprotein and/or urine paraprotein or evidence of bone marrow plasmacytosis and plasma cells, an appearance of new or existing soft tissue plasmacytomas, an appearance of new or existing lytic bone lesions and/or hypercalcemia >11.5mg/dL

    Measured: From the time of the first dose of study drug to study completion; the median duration on study was 42.1 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Celgene at 8 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 16 inclusion and 29 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 20 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 14 Jun 2016). 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?

Number of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) (time frame: Day 1 of study drug through 28 days after the last dose of study drug; maximum treatment duration was 60.3 weeks). 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 20 Nov 2019.
