About this study

Official title: An Extension or Re-Treatment Study of Bortezomib to Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

One purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety in long term treatment for patients who completed preceding phase I/II study. The other purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of patients who are re-treated with this drug in recommended dose.

Read the detailed description

Multiple myeloma is a kind of malignant disease in the organ which produce blood cells such as bone marrow. It has poor prognosis, especially in patients who are relapsed repeatedly. Effective treatment is strongly expected in such relapsed patients in Japan. This is a open label multiple center study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of bortezomib. This study is an extension or re-treatment study for patients who were administered with bortezomib in preceding Phase I/II study. For extension treatment, the same dose of the previous study will be administered into a vein as a bolus twice weekly followed by a 10-day rest (3-week cycle). For re-treatment, a recommended dose determined in Phase I/II study will be administered in 3-week cycle.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. No. of patients who had adverse events, incidence and severity of adverse events, and relationship to the study drug. Overall response rate (Complete Remission + Partial Remission). Response will be evaluated by independent review committee.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. TTP (Time To Progression), survival time, time to response and duration of response. For re-treatment patients, survival time from the previous study drug treatment and response rate from the start of re-treatment will be also evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bortezomib in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K..

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

No. of patients who had adverse events, incidence and severity of adverse events, and relationship to the study drug. Overall response rate (Complete Remission + Partial Remission). Response will be evaluated by independent review committee.. 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 17 May 2011.
