About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Study Of The Anti-Angiogenesis Agent AG-013736 In Patients With Metastatic Melanoma

This is a Phase 2 study being conducted at multiple centers in the United States and France. Patients having melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body (i.e., metastatic) are eligible to participate. Patients must have disease that has been treated with no more than 1 prior treatment for metastatic disease (prior adjuvant treatment for localized disease does not count as prior treatment for metastatic disease). The purpose of the study is to test whether the angiogenesis inhibitor AG-013736 is an effective treatment for metastatic melanoma as shown by the number of patients in the study who experience significant and durable tumor shrinkage.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (OR)

    Percentage of participants with OR based assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed responses are those that persist on repeat imaging study at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. CR are defined as the disappearance of all lesions (target and/or non target). PR are those with at least 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum longest dimensions.

    Measured: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Time in days from start of study treatment to first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to any cause. PFS was calculated as first event date minus the date of first dose of study medication plus 1. Tumor progression was determined from oncologic assessment data (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease [PD]), or from adverse event (AE) data (where the outcome was "Death").

    Measured: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks

  2. Duration of Response (DR)

    Time in days from the first documentation of objective tumor response to objective tumor progression or death due to any cause. Duration of tumor response was calculated as the date of the first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to cancer minus the date of the first CR or PR that was subsequently confirmed plus 1. DR was calculated for the subgroup of participants with a confirmed objective tumor response.

    Measured: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time in days from the start of study treatment to date of death due to any cause. OS was calculated as the death date minus the date of first dose of study medication plus 1. Death was determined from AE data (where outcome was death) or from follow-up contact data (where the participant current status was death). For participants who were alive, overall survival was censored at the last contact.

    Measured: Baseline to death due to any cause or at least 1 year after the initial dose for the last treated participant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Axitinib [AG-013736] in people with Melanoma and Skin Neoplasms, run by Pfizer at 12 sites in 2 countries.

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 2 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 26 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States, France. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Mar 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (OR) (time frame: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks). 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 26 Jun 2012.
