About this study

Official title: A Non-interventional Observational Post Authorization Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy in Patients Receiving Azacitidine in Daily Clinical Practice in the Netherlands (OCEAN)

The study design is a prospective, non-interventional, observational single arm study.

A minimum of 150 patients will be recruited from approximately 30 haematology/oncology sites in the Netherlands. In all cases, the decision to treat the patient with azacitidine was already made prior to the decision to enter the subject into the study.

Recruitment will continue until end of June 2015, provided a minimum of 150 patients have been included in the study. When this date is reached, all patients on azacitidine will continue to be followed until the last patient enrolled has been followed for 12 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse Events (AEs)

    Adverse events will be classified using the Medical Drug Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) classification system. The severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the NCI CTCAE VERSION 4.03 whenever possible

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Fact-Anemia Quality of life questionnaire

    The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Anemia (FACT-An) questionnaire was used to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In addition to general HRQoL, the FACT-An measures the impact of fatigue and other anemia-related symptoms on patient functioning.

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 years

  2. Percentage of patients with a Haematological Response in daily clinical practice using the International Work Group Criteria in Myelodysplastic Syndrome Assessed by the Investigator

    Hematologic Response according to the 2000 International Working Group (IWG) response criteria for Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 years

  3. Percentage of patients with a Hematologic Improvement Using International Working Group (IWG Criteria for Hematologic Improvement Cheson 2000) Criteria for Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Assessed by the investigator in daily clinical practice

    Overall hematological improvement (HI) was defined as any type (major or minor) of improvement of HI-E, HI-P, or HI-N. Criteria: Pretreatment=hemoglobin <100g/L or RBC transfusion-dependent, platelet count <100x10^9/L or platelet transfusion dependent, absolute neutrophil count <1.5x10^9/L. Sponsor's determination was derived using clinically relevant data.

    Denominator for progression/relapse after HI included participants who had achieved HI.

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 years

  4. Time to treatment Failure daily clinical practice

    Time to Treatment Failure is defined as the time from randomization to treatment discontinuation for any reason, including disease progression, treatment toxicity, patient preference, or death.

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 years

  5. Overall Survival in daily clinical practice

    Overall survival (OS) was assessed using the time between randomization and the date of death

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Leukemia, Myelomonocytic, Chronic, run by Celgene.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: Up to approximately 4 years). 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 Jul 2019.
