About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomised, Multicenter Phase II/III Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Clinical Benefit Response in Cancer Patients With Advanced Disease With AMT Versus Placebo

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of AMT2003 in cancer patients with advanced disease.

The primary evaluation criterion is clinical benefit response.

Read the detailed description

The study will include patients with a variety of solid tumors (i.e. esophageal, colon, pancreatic, bronchial, gastric, hepatocellular, gall bladder, prostate and gynaecological carcinomas.)

The clinical benefit response - CBR, is an end point that provides a clinical measure for symptom improvement in patients. The key evaluation parameters for CBR will be assessment of pain, the ability to perform daily activities and weight change.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing AMT2003 in people with Gastrointestinal Cancer and Prostate Cancer, run by Auron Healthcare GmbH at 2 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 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Germany. 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 combined 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.

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 was stopped early (reason given: Lack of efficacy. Stopped at first interim evaluation point). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Improvement in clinical benefit response (time frame: Jan 2010). 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 20 Mar 2013.
