  • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
  • Adequate hematologic and end organ function for drug treatment per the clinician's assessment
  • Asymptomatic or treated brain metastases permitted
  • For women of childbearing potential: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of less than 1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 5 months after the last dose.

About this study

This pilot clinical trial aims to assess the real world quality of life and survival of patients treated with therapy that has preliminary evidence of efficacy but uncertainty of the magnitude of clinical benefit or cost effectiveness in subjects with cancer. The goal of this study is to collect real world evidence with respect to quality of life and outcomes to support decision making.

Read the detailed description

Clinical practice involves incorporating new data into treatment recommendations including non randomized phase I/II studies. Clinicians' decision-making is swayed by alternative endpoints like response rate (RR), depth of response and progression free survival (PFS), presumed to be surrogates for overall survival (OS). Determination of the added value of these new therapies in terms of outcomes and quality of life (QOL) is challenging in the absence of comparators in trials resulting in increased uncertainty in terms of outcomes, quality of life and cost-effectiveness.

With the possibility of a randomized clinical trial evidence being low in certain populations, the use of real world data (RWD) can provide information regarding therapies with preliminary evidence of efficacy but uncertainty of the magnitude of clinical benefit or cost effectiveness. With RWD, patients may receive access to therapies and participate in the evidence generation package.

This study proposes to use RWD to generate evidence to evaluate therapies with preliminary evidence of efficacy but uncertainty of the magnitude of clinical benefit or cost effectiveness. The key components include regular interval disease assessments (eg radiographic imaging) and collection of patient reported outcomes (PROs) using standardized QOL questionnaires. The aim is to provide high quality real world evidence (RWE) for assessment and economic modelling to reduce uncertainty and facilitate decision-making.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall survival

    Overall survival from initiation of therapy

    Measured: From date of initiation until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Response rate

    Response rate as defined by standard measurement for tumor site (eg RECIST 1.1)

    Measured: From date of initiation until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

  2. Progression/event free survival

    Progression or event free survival from initiation of therapy

    Measured: From date of initiation until the date of progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

  3. Quality of life assessments

    Quality of life assessments using EQ5D scale 1 to 5 with 5 being extreme problems

    Measured: From date of initiation until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

  4. Quality adjust survival

    Quality adjusted survival from initiation of therapy

    Measured: From date of initiation until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

  5. Physician assessed response rate

    Response rate as defined by physician assessed response

    Measured: From date of initiation until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing QOL - quality of life and Radiographic or laboratory evaluation in people with Cancer, run by British Columbia Cancer Agency at 1 site in Canada.

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 5 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2026. 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 Canada. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Cheryl Ho, MD (604 877 6000, cho@bccancer.bc.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: From date of initiation until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 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 19 Oct 2026.
