What is being measured

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

  1. Two-Years Survival Rate

    Two-year survival rate is defined as the probability that a subject is alive at 2 years following the randomization date and will be estimated via the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. One-Year Survival Rate

    Survival rate at 1 year is defined as the probability that a subject is alive at 1 year following the randomization date and will be estimated via the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method.

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined for each subject as the time between randomization date and the date of death (of any cause).

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

  3. Progression Free Survival ( PFS)

    PFS is defined for each subject as the time between randomization date and the date of progression or death, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

  4. Disease Control Rate ( DCR )

    Primary DCR is defined as the number of subjects in the arm with Best Overall Response (BOR) of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD), divided by the total number of randomized subjects in the arm.

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

  5. Best Overall Response Rate ( BORR )

    BORR definition is defined as the number of subjects in the arm with a BOR of CR or PR, divided by the total number of randomized subjects in the arm.

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

  6. Duration of Response ( DoR)

    DoR definition for the response evaluable subjects whose BOR is CR or PR is defined as the time between the date of response of CR or PR (whichever occurs first) and the first date of progressive disease (PD) or the date of death (whichever occurs first).

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

  7. Duration of Stable Disease ( DoSD )

    Primary duration of stable disease (DoSD) definition for the randomized subjects whose BOR is SD is defined as the time between the randomization date and the first date of PD or the date of death (whichever occurs first)."

    Measured: Approximately 43 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ipilimumab and Dacarbazine in people with Melanoma, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 8 sites in China.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2020. 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 China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 19 May 2020). 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?

Two-Years Survival Rate (time frame: 24 months). 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 19 May 2020.
