About this study

Official title: Economic Analyses Alongside the REDUCE Clinical Trial

The objective of this project is to conduct a retrospective economic analysis of the use of dutasteride for the prevention of prostate cancer based on data from the REDUCE clinical trial. REDUCE is a 4-year, phase 3, randomized, double-blind, parallel assignment clinical trial of the use of dutasteride compared with no chemopreventive treatment.

The REDUCE trial was a four-year, international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. There were 790 investigators in 42 countries.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neoplasms, Prostate and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

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 3 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 30 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Cost of treating prostate-related events (time frame: REDUCE clinical trial, 4 year time period). 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 30 May 2017.
