About this study
Official title: Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3 Trial to Compare the Efficacy of Ipilimumab vs Placebo in Asymptomatic or Minimally Symptomatic Patients With Metastatic Chemotherapy-Naïve Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine if asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic patients with metastatic prostate cancer who have not received chemotherapy live longer when treated with ipilimumab than those treated with a placebo
- Conditions
- Prostate Cancer
- Being tested
- Ipilimumab, Placebo
- Medical subject headings
- Prostatic Neoplasms
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
IpilimumabDrug
Also called BMS-734016, MDX010
5 mg/ml solution, Intravenous, 10 mg/kg, Every 3 weeks for up to 4 doses in the Induction Phase. Every 12 weeks in the Maintenance Phase. Up to 24 weeks in the Induction Phase. Treatment in the Maintenance Phase continues until total treatment period has reached three years,Treatment Stopping Criteria are met, withdrawal of consent, or study closure
PlaceboDrug
Solution, Intravenous, 0 mg, Every 3 weeks for up to 4 doses in the Induction Phase. Every 12 weeks in the Maintenance Phase. Up to 24 weeks in the Induction Phase.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Ipilimumab | Experimental | Not described Receives: Drug: Ipilimumab |
| Placebo | Placebo comparator | Not described Receives: Drug: Placebo |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall Survival (OS) Time
OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of death. For participants without documentation of death, OS was censored at the last date the participant was known to be alive.
Measured: Randomization until death from any cause, up to April 2015, approximately 57 months
Secondary outcomes (5)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Time
Progression-free survival, as determined by the investigator, was defined as the time from randomization to the earliest date of confirmed Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) progression, confirmed radiological progression, clinical deterioration, or death.
Measured: Randomization until disease progression, up to April 2015, approximately 57 months
Time to Subsequent Non-hormonal Cytotoxic Therapy
For participants who discontinued treatment or experienced disease progression while on study therapy and then received subsequent non-hormonal cytotoxic therapy, time to subsequent non-hormonal cytotoxic therapy was defined as the time from randomization to the time of initiation of subsequent non-hormonal cytotoxic therapy. Participants who did not receive subsequent non-hormonal cytotoxic therapy were censored on the last known alive date (for participants who have not died) or the date of last follow-up contact at which the participants was known alive (for participants who died).
Measured: Randomization until subsequent non-hormonal cytotoxic therapy, up to April 2015, approximately 57 months
Time to Pain Progression
Time to pain progression was defined as the time from randomization to the time of the earliest date of any of the following 4 events: 1) an increase in average daily worst pain intensity of >= 2 points from baseline according to the Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPI-SF), maintained over 2 consecutive time periods. 2) initiation of opioid analgesic (excluding codeine or dextropropoxyphene). 3) initiation of palliative radiotherapy for prostate cancer. 4) increase in mean Analgesic Score (AS) of >= 25% from baseline (for participants with baseline AS > 10) or increase in mean AS >= 10 points from baseline (for participants with baseline AS <= 10).
Participants who did not experience any of these events were censored on the earliest date among the latest BPI-SF completion date with non-missing worst pain assessment and last evaluable disease assessment date as defined in the PFS censoring mechanism.
Measured: Randomization until pain progression, up to April 2015, approximately 57 months
Number of Participants Who Died or Had Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Immune-related AEs (irAEs), or Immune-mediated Adverse Reactions (imARs)
AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. irAE=AEs consistent with an immune mediated mechanism. imAR=AEs of special interest that were adjudicated as imAR by investigator. Treatment-related=having certain, probable, possible, or missing relationship to study drug. Grade (Gr) 1=Mild, Gr 2=Moderate, Gr 3=Severe, Gr 4= Potentially Life-threatening or disabling. Events were graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0.
Measured: Day 1 of study therapy to last dose plus 70 days
Number of Treated Participants With Grade 3 or 4 Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities
NCI CTC, Version 3 used to assess parameters. LLN=lower limit of normal. ULN=upper limit of normal. CTC criteria:
White blood cells (WBC): Gr 3:<2.0 to 1.0*10^9/L, Gr 4:<1.0*10^9/L. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC): Gr 3:<1.0 to 0.5*10^9/L, Gr 4:<0.5*10^9/L.
Platelet count: Gr 3:<50.0 to 25.0*10^9/L, Gr 4:<25.0 to 10^9/L. Hemoglobin: Gr 3:<8.0 to 6.5 g/dL, Gr 4:<6.5 g/dL. Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC): Gr 3: 0.2 - <0.5*10^9/L, Gr 4: <0.2*10^9/L.
Lipase: Gr 3:> 2.0 - 5.0 * ULN; Gr 4: > 5.0 X ULN. Amylase: Gr 3: > 2.0 - 5.0 * ULN; Gr 4: > 5.0 * ULN. Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Gr 3: > 5.0 - 20.0 * ULN; Gr 4: > 20.0 * ULN. Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST): Gr 3: > 5.0 - 20.0 * ULN; Gr 4: > 20.0 * ULN. Bilirubin: Gr 3: > 3.0 - 10.0 * ULN; Gr 4: > 10.0 * ULN. Alkaline Phosphatase: Gr 3: > 5.0 - 20.0 * ULN; Gr 4: > 20.0 * ULN. Creatinine: Gr 3: > 3.0-6.0 * ULN, Gr 4: >6.0 * ULN.
Measured: Randomization up to April 2015, approximately 57 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Ipilimumab in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 134 sites in 24 countries.
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 4 inclusion and 4 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 18 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 134 sites in United States, Argentina, Australia, Mexico, Poland and 19 more countries. 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 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 18 Aug 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?
Overall Survival (OS) Time (time frame: Randomization until death from any cause, up to April 2015, approximately 57 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 NCT01057810, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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 18 Aug 2016.
