About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Double-Blind, Multicentre Phase Ⅲ Study to Evaluate Abiraterone Acetate Versus Placebo Combined With Prednisone in Subjects With Asymptomatic or Mild Symptoms Without Chemotherapy, Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer.

Abiraterone acetate is an orally effective CYP17 inhibitor, which is metabolized into abiraterone in the body, and its inhibitory activity against CYP17 is 10-30 times that of ketoconazole. Clinical studies have shown that abiraterone acetate can significantly reduce the level of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in PCa patients, and help to reduce tumors, extending the lifespan of patients with advanced PCa for several years, and the toxicity is acceptable.

Being tested
Abiraterone Acetate, Placebo, Prednisone

What participants receive

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

  • Abiraterone AcetateDrug

    Subjects administered 4 tablets abiraterone acetate twice daily in 28-day cycle.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Subjects administered 4 tablets abiraterone acetate blank analog tablet twice daily in 28-day cycle.

  • PrednisoneDrug

    Subjects administered 5mg prednisone twice daily in 28-day cycle.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to PSA progression (TTPP)

    The time interval between the administration of the drug and the progression of serum prostate specific antigen (PSA).

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Prostate specific antigen remission time

    It was ≥50% lower than the baseline, and was confirmed as remission after re-testing after ≥4 weeks.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The percentage of participants with a best overall response defined as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR).

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

  3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)

    The ECOG scoring standard is an indicator of the general health status and tolerance to treatment from the patient's physical strength. ECOG physical status score standard from 0 to 5. Starting with the dose until the score increases from the baseline.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

  5. To pain progression time

    Time from the start of medication to the progression of pain.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

  6. Quality of life assessment scale (FACT-P)

    Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Prostate Cancer (FACT-P) total score, Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- General (FACT-G) total score, trial outcome index, functional well-being, physical well-being, prostate cancer subscale, and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT) Advanced Prostate Symptom Index-6 (FAPSI-6).

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

  7. Prostate specific antigen remission rate

    The remission rate was defined as the proportion of remissions to the total number of people.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Abiraterone Acetate and Prednisone in people with Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer, run by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. at 16 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 11 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 14 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 16 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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?

Time to PSA progression (TTPP) (time frame: Baseline up to 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 14 Aug 2019.
