What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with dose-limiting toxicities (DLT)

    DLTs graded according to the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.03.

    Measured: Up to 3 weeks after the initial dose of study drug (first 3 weeks of Cycle 1)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Duration of response (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the time from the initial objective response to disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: First dose of study drug through at least 42 days after last dose; Up to a minimum 18 weeks after participant's first dose.

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants whose best overall response is either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: First dose of study drug through at least 42 days after last dose; Up to a minimum 18 weeks after participant's first dose.

  3. Overall survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from the date of first dose to the date of death.

    Measured: First dose of study drug through long-term follow up; Up to 24 months after participant's first dose.

  4. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS time is defined as the time from the first dose of study drug to progression or death, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: First dose of study drug through at least 42 days after last dose; Up to a minimum 18 weeks after participant's first dose.

  5. Clinical benefit rate (CBR)

    CBR is defined as the proportion of participants whose overall response is either CR, PR, or Stable Disease (SD) according to RECIST version 1.1.

    Measured: First dose of study drug through at least 42 days after last dose; Up to a minimum 18 weeks after participant's first dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Rovalpituzumab tesirine in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by AbbVie at 5 sites in Japan.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 3 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Japan. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Number of participants with dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) (time frame: Up to 3 weeks after the initial dose of study drug (first 3 weeks of Cycle 1)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03086239, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 3 Aug 2021.
