About this study

Official title: An Observational Study to Collect Data Characterizing Analgesia in Patients Suffering From Bone Metastasis Induced Pain

Up to 180 patients with bone metastasis and requiring analgesic treatment will be followed during 4 to 10 weeks. All patients will continue to receive their cancer therapeutic treatments and be treated for pain relief exactly as they would normally be by the Investigator based on their needs. During their regular visits to the Investigator, patients will complete questionnaires and Clinical Pain Assessments.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient's Change From Baseline of Pain Severity, as Measured by the Weekly Means of the Daily Average Pain Scores (APS)

    11-point Numeric Rating Scale from 0 to 10 with 0 meaning no pain and 10 pain as bad as you can imagine; baseline measure was the Weekly Average Pain Score (WAPS), over the week first visit (the last 7 days); end of study measure was the mean of the APS of the last 7 days prior to last visit (Visit 2)

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of observation (Visit 2)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Patient's Change From Baseline of Pain Severity, as Measured by the Weekly Means of the Daily Worst Pain Score (WPS)

    11-point Numeric Rating Scale from 0 to 10 with 0 meaning no pain and 10 pain as bad as you can imagine; baseline measure was was the mean of the WPS of the first 7 days after first visit (Visit 1); end of study measure was the mean of the WPS of the last 7 days prior to last visit (Visit 2)

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

  2. Patient's Change From Baseline of Pain Severity as Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)

    The pain severity score of BPI is an arithmetic average of the 4 severity scores reported on an 11- point NRS going from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine).

    The BPI severity questions are:

    1. Your pain at its worst in the last 24 hours? 4. Your pain at its least in the last 24 hours? 5. Your pain on the average? 6. How much pain you have right now?

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

  3. Patient's Change From Baseline of Investigator Global Assessment of Changes (IGAC)

    Investigator subjective evaluation of patient condition using an 11-point NRS with 0 meaning best and 10 worst

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

  4. Patient's Change From Baseline of Patient Global Assessment of Changes (PGAC)

    Patient subjective evaluation of patient condition using an 11-point NRS with 0 meaning best and 10 worst

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

  5. Patient's Change From Baseline of Pain Intensity Measured After Clinical Pain Assessments (CPAs)

    Number of symptoms measured after Clinical Pain Assessments (CPAs), 0 no symptom to 3 all the three symptoms : Hyperalgesia, Hypoesthesia, and Sensory loss.

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

  6. Patient's Change From Baseline of Quality-of-Life Questionnaire in 30 Questions (QLQ-C30).

    Pain scale of the Quality-of-Life Questionnaire in 30 questions (QLQ-C30); 2 items in the Pain scale ranging each from 1 to 4 (high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems); Pain score is sum of of the 2 items

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

  7. Patient's Change From Baseline of Pain Interference as Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)

    The pain interference score of BPI is an arithmetic average of the 7 interference scores reported on an 11-point NRS going from 0 (does not interfere) to 10 (completely interferes)

    The BPI interference questions are:

    1. Pain has interfered in the last 24 hours with
    2. General Activity?
    3. Mood?
    4. Walking Abililty?
    5. Work?
    6. Relations with other people?
    7. Sleep?
    8. Enjoyment of life?

    Measured: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone Metastasis, run by Tools4Patient at 8 sites in 2 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 9 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 Aug 2019. 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 Belgium, France. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Aug 2019). 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?

Patient's Change From Baseline of Pain Severity, as Measured by the Weekly Means of the Daily Average Pain Scores (APS) (time frame: Time zero equals baseline up to after at least 4 weeks of observation (Visit 2)). 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 Aug 2019.
