Trastuzumab MonotherapyExperimentalParticipants received an initial dose of trastuzumab 4 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) intravenously (IV) on Day 1, followed by weekly doses of 2 mg/kg IV beginning on Day 8 and continuing for up to 37 weeks.
Receives: Drug: trastuzumab

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) - Percentage of Participants With an Event

    PFS was defined as the time from the first dose of study treatment to the first documentation of objective tumor progression or to death due to any cause.

    Measured: Screening, every 3 months during treatment (up to 37 weeks), and at end of treatment

  2. Progression-Free Survival - Time to Event

    The median time, in months, from the first study drug treatment to a PFS event.

    Measured: Screening, every 3 months during treatment (up to 37 weeks), and at end of treatment

  3. Percentage of Participants Progression Free at 12 and 24 Months

    Measured: Months 12 and 24

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Survival (OS) - Percentage of Participants With an Event

    OS was defined as the time from the start of study treatment to date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: Screening, every 4 weeks during treatment (up to 37 weeks), at end of treatment, and every 3 months thereafter

  2. Overall Survival - Time to Event

    The median time, in months, from the start of study treatment to an OS event.

    Measured: Screening, every 4 weeks during treatment (up to 37 weeks), at end of treatment, and every 3 months thereafter

  3. Percentage of Participants Surviving at 12 and 24 Months

    Measured: Months 12 and 24

  4. Percentage of Participants by Best Overall Response to Treatment

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Complete response (CR) was defined as complete disappearance of all target lesions and non-target disease, with the exception of nodal disease. All nodes, both target and non-target, must decrease to normal [(short axis less than (<)10 millimeters (mm)]. No new lesions. Partial response (PR) was defined as greater than or equal to (≥)30% decrease under baseline of the sum of diameters of all target lesions. The short axis was used in the sum for target nodes, while the longest diameter was used in the sum for all other target lesions. No unequivocal progression of non-target disease. No new lesions. Stable disease (SD) was defined as not qualifying for CR, PR, or progressive disease (PD).

    Measured: Screening, every 3 months during treatment (up to 37 weeks), and at end of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing trastuzumab in people with Urinary Tract Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 7 sites 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 5 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Sep 2014). 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?

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) - Percentage of Participants With an Event (time frame: Screening, every 3 months during treatment (up to 37 weeks), and at end of treatment). The study lists 3 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 25 Sep 2014.
