Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will consist of patients with intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (BCLC-B) treated with Nexavar according to the local summary of product characteristics. Participants will be recruited from oncological and gastroenterological clinics and practices throughout Germany. In this non-interventional observational study, the decision on the duration and dosage of treatment is solely at the discretion of the attending physician. The medication is prescribed at regular visits to the investigator's office. Commercially available product will be used to treat the patients.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with a diagnosis of unresectable intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (BCLC-B) for whom the decision has been taken by the investigator to prescribe Nexavar (the BCLC intermediate stage (BCLC-B) consists of Child-Pugh A and B patients with large/multifocal HCC who do not have cancer related symptoms, macrovascular invasion or extrahepatic spread).

Who cannot join

  • Prior targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma.

What is being measured

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

  1. Distribution of intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with Nexavar to different treatment groups will be evaluated by the relative frequency of patients in each treatment group.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  2. Characteristics of patients with intermediate stage HCC (BCLC-B) treated with Nexavar will be determined by evaluating demographic data, medical history, previous treatment of HCC, specific concomitant conditions (amongst others).

    Measured: up to 54 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Overall Survival is measured as the time interval from start of Nexavar therapy to the date of death, due to any reason.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  2. Time to progression is defined as the time interval from start of Nexavar therapy to the date of diagnosed progression.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  3. Progression free survival is measured as the time interval from the start of Nexavar treatment to diagnosed (radiological or clinical) progression or death, whichever comes first.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  4. Time to treatment failure is defined as the time interval from start of Nexavar therapy to the date of diagnosed progression or permanent discontinuation due to toxicity.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  5. Duration of Nexavar treatment is measured as the time interval from start of Nexavar therapy to the date of permanent discontinuation of Nexavar therapy (regardless of the reason for discontinuation).

    Measured: up to 54 months

  6. Tumor status at different visits will be evaluated according to radiological or clinical evaluation. The best overall response will be analyzed providing absolute and relative frequencies of the tumor status categories.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  7. Further possible prognostic factors will be evaluated.

    Measured: up to 54 months

  8. Safety variables will be summarized using descriptive statistics based on adverse events collection.

    Measured: up to 54 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Carcinoma, Hepatocellular, run by Bayer at 1 site in Germany.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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?

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?

Distribution of intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with Nexavar to different treatment groups will be evaluated by the relative frequency of patients in each treatment group. (time frame: up to 54 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Nov 2015.
