About this study
Official title: A Phase I Dose Escalation Trial of Once Daily Oral Treatment Using Afatinib (BIBW2992) Plus Gemcitabine or Docetaxel in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in Process for the Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).
DLT was based on following criterions: 1. Grade 4 uncomplicated (not associated with fever >38.5° C (Celsius)) neutropenia for ≥7 days. 2. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia concomitant with fever >38.5º C or Grade ≥3 infection. 3. Platelet count of <25x 10^9/L or <50x 10^9/L with bleeding requiring whole blood transfusion. 4. Grade ≥3 non-haematological toxicity (except untreated nausea, untreated vomiting, or untreated diarrhoea). 5. Grade ≥2 decrease in cardiac left ventricular function. 6. Grade ≥2 worsening of renal function as measured by serum creatinine, newly developed proteinuria, or a newly developed decrease in glomerular filtration rate. Toxicity grading was based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 3.0
Measured: 3 weeks
Secondary outcomes (19)
The Incidence and Intensity of AEs With Grading According to CTCAE.
The incidence and intensity of adverse events with grading according to CTCAE. The CTCAE grades are: 1 (mild AE), 2 (moderate AE), 3 (severe AE), 4 (life-threatening or disabling AE), 5 (death related to AE).
Measured: From first drug administration until 28 days after last drug administration, up to 717 days.
Best Overall Response According to RECIST v1.1 Criteria
Best overall response (according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours [RECIST] version 1.1) was the best response recorded at any time from the date of the first administration of afatinib or gemcitabine/docetaxel to the end of treatment (EOT). Partial response is for patients with measurable disease. Missing categories signifies that no tumour imaging has been performed post baseline, and therefore the response status could not be assessed.
Measured: From first drug administration until 28 days after last drug administration, up to 717 days.
Disease Control According to RECIST v1.1
Disease control according to RECIST v1.1 Disease control is complete response, partial response or stable disease for measurable patients and complete response or non-CR/non-PD for non-measurable patients. Missing categories signify that no tumour imaging has been performed post baseline, and therefore the response status could not be assessed.
Measured: From first drug administration until 28 days after last drug administration, up to 717 days.
Objective Response According to RECIST v1.1
Objective response according to RECIST v1.1. Objective response is complete response or partial response for patients with measurable disease. Missing categories signify that no tumour imaging has been performed post baseline, and therefore the response status could not be assessed.
Measured: From first drug administration until 28 days after last drug administration, up to 717 days.
Time to Objective Response According to RECIST v1.1
Objective response according to RECIST v1.1. Objective response is complete response or partial response for patients with measurable disease. Time to objective response is the time from the start of treatment to the date of first documented complete response or partial response. Descriptive analyses has been performed for the time to objective response (N(%) of patients with first occurrence of objective response at 6, 12 and 24 weeks). Onset of objective response is derived for patient with measurable disease.
Measured: 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks
Duration of Objective Response According to RECIST v1.1
Duration of objective response was the time from the first documented complete response or partial response to disease progression or death.
Measured: From the first documented complete response or partial response to the time of disease progression or death
Duration of Disease Control According to RECIST v1.1
Duration of disease control according to RECIST v1.1.
Measured: From the first administration of study medication to the time of disease progression or death
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Progression-free survival was defined as the time from the first administration of study medication to the time of disease progression or death, whichever occurred first.
Measured: From the first administration of study medication to the time of disease progression or death
Overall Survival (OS)
Overall survival was defined as the time from the first administration of study medication to the time of death from any cause.
Measured: From the first administration of study medication to the time of death

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Neoplasms, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 3 sites in France.
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 1 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 30 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites in France. 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.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 May 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 With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in Process for the Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). (time frame: 3 weeks). 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 NCT01251653, 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 30 May 2016.
