About this study

Official title: Retrospective Evaluation of Re-Treatment With Bortezomib in Subjects With First Relapse After Bortezomib First-Line Therapy

The purpose of this retrospective study is to collect information about patients who received bortezomib as their first chemotherapy and who responded well to it, but who relapsed afterwards and were treated again with bortezomib a second time after a treatment-free period of at least 6 months. During this non-interventional study (this means that no drug is being tested in this study) the safety and effectiveness (whether it works or not) of bortezomib re-treatment will be evaluated in patients with multiple myeloma. Only data already mentioned in your clinical file will be collected. About 100 adult patients will take part in the study

Read the detailed description

This is an international, multicenter, non-interventional, retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bortezomib in 100 adult patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM) who responded to bortezomib as first-line treatment, experienced partial response or better, presented with relapsed disease, and were re-treated (second-line) with bortezomib (for at least 3 cycles) after a treatment-free interruption of at least 6 months. As this is a non-interventional study, no changes to the current treatment that the patient receives will be required, and no additional treatment will be provided by the company. The decision of the patients to take part in this study will not have any impact on the care they receive. All the appropriate treatment-related decisions will have been made by the treating physician(s), and only data available from clinical practice will be collected. Retrospective data will be collected at a single time point for each patient (the data collection visit). Each investigator should collect data from patients fulfilling all inclusion and exclusion criteria. After receiving the signed informed consent form (ICF) from the patient (if required by local regulations), the investigator will start documenting the retrospective data for each patient using electronic data capture (eDC). After confirmation of the patient's eligibility, the patient's last visit, patient characteristics, predefined risk factors (if available), MM-related data, and first- and second-line bortezomib-related data will be documented in the Case Report Form (CRF). The patient's status after re-treatment with bortezomib, medical resource utilization data, as well as (serious) adverse drug reactions ([S]ADRs) will be collected. No blood, urine, or other biological samples will be taken, and no additional investigations will be performed. the current therapy of the patient will be maintained with no changes

    Measured: Day 1

  3. duration of hospitalization

    duration of hospitalizations are collected retrospectively from initial diagnosis to the time of data collection

    Measured: Day 1

  4. number and character of diagnostic and therapeutic tests and procedures

    number and character of diagnostic and therapeutic tests and procedures are collected retrospectively from initial diagnosis to the time of data collection

    Measured: Day 1

  5. outpatient medical encounters and treatments

    outpatient medical encounters and treatments are collected retrospectively from initial diagnosis to the time of data collection

    Measured: Day 1

  6. safety and tolerability

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Greece. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

overall response after retreatment (time frame: Day 1). 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 12 Jun 2012.
