About this study

Official title: Phase II Randomized Study of Continuing Treatment With Docetaxel Versus Switching to Cabazitaxel After Minor Prostate Specific Antigen Response to Docetaxel in the First Line Treatment of Patients With Castration-Resistant Metastatic Prostate Cancer.

Primary Objective:

  • To compare the continuation of treatment with docetaxel versus switching to cabazitaxel regarding the time to PSA (Prostatic Specific Antigen) progression (TTP-PSA), in patients with Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) that, after four cycles of docetaxel, have minor PSA response (defined as a reduction between 1% and 49%) or increase of up to 24% in PSA levels.

Secondary Objectives:

  • PSA response rate
  • Overall survival (OS)
  • Incidence of Adverse Events
Read the detailed description

Screening: 21days (+7 days) Treatment: until PSA progression Post-treatment Follow-up: 2 years

Being tested
CABAZITAXEL (XRP6258), DOCETAXEL (XRP6976)

What is being measured

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

  1. Median time to PSA progression

    Measured: up to 60 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. PSA response rate: Percentage of patients with a decrease of at least 50% in the PSA

    Measured: up to 60 days

  2. Overall Survival: Median time elapsed between the date of starting treatment until death by any cause

    Measured: up to a maximum of 2 years

  3. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: up to a maximum of 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CABAZITAXEL (XRP6258) and DOCETAXEL (XRP6976) in people with Prostatic Neoplasms, run by Sanofi at 8 sites in Brazil.

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 9 inclusion and 10 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 24 Dec 2013. 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 Brazil. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Median time to PSA progression (time frame: up to 60 days). 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 24 Dec 2013.
