About this study

Official title: Treatment Satisfaction With Ra-223 Among Japanese Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) Patients

This study aims to answer the research question: Are Japanese bone metastatic CRPC patients satisfied with their Ra-223 treatment, and what factors drive such satisfaction? It also aims to determine patient anxiety regarding prostate cancer while on treatment with Ra-223, and assess the effect on quality of life.

Read the detailed description

This is a local, Japanese, prospective, longitudinal, observational, company-sponsored, multi-center, single arm study that will describe treatment satisfaction with Ra-223 in 150 bone metastatic CRPC patients on 1st to 3rd line CRPC therapy. All outcomes will be obtained using PRO questionnaires at 4 time points: before treatment, during treatment, and at 1-month after the last treatment cycle.

Being tested
Radium-223 dichloride (Xofigo, BAY88-8223)
Keywords

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Radium-223 dichloride (Xofigo, BAY88-8223)Drug

    Ra-223 is a radiopharmaceutical with an indication to treat Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (approved indication in Japan)

Receives: Drug: Radium-223 dichloride (Xofigo, BAY88-8223)

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in patient satisfaction with treatment using the Cancer Therapy Satisfaction Questionnaire (CTSQ)

    The CTSQ is a 16-item self-administered questionnaire measuring 3 domains related to patients' satisfaction with cancer therapy.

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in the total scores of the CTSQ domains

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

  2. Change in patient anxiety with prostate cancer using the Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer (MAX-PC)

    Changes in the MAX-PC scores will be analyzed as full scores (no sub-domains).

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

  3. Change in bone-related symptoms using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Quality of Life Measurement in Patients with Bone Pain (FACT-BP)

    Change in FACT-BP scores will be analyzed as full scores (no subdomains).

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

  4. Differences in change in treatment satisfaction (measured by CTSQ) between potential subgroups

    Potential subgroups will be identified depending on the number of patients available for subgrouping.

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

  5. Differences in change in prostate cancer anxiety (measured by MAX-PC) between potential subgroups

    Potential subgroups will be identified depending on the number of patients available for subgrouping.

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

  6. Differences in change in bone pain (measured by FACT-BP) between potential subgroups

    Potential subgroups will be identified depending on the number of patients available for subgrouping.

    Measured: From baseline to 7 months

Individual data sharing
No: Availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014. Interested researchers can use www.vivli.org to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostatic Neoplasms, run by Bayer at 1 site 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 7 inclusion and 10 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 8 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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.

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?

Change in patient satisfaction with treatment using the Cancer Therapy Satisfaction Questionnaire (CTSQ) (time frame: From baseline to 7 months). 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 NCT03315260, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Feb 2024.
