About this study
Official title: A Phase III, Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of 10 mg ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in Combination With Docetaxel in Comparison With Docetaxel in Patients With Metastatic Hormone-resistant Prostate Cancer
Enthuse M1C is a large phase III clinical trial studying the safety and efficacy of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in combination with docetaxel (Taxotere) in patients with metastatic hormone resistant prostate cancer (HRPC).
This clinical trial will test if the Endothelin A Receptor Antagonist ZD4054 (Zibotentan) can further improve survival compared with docetaxel alone.
Read more
ZD4054 (Zibotentan) is a new type of agent, which is thought to slow tumour growth and spread by blocking Endothelin A receptor activity. This trial will look at the effects of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer patients with bone metastases compared with docetaxel.
All patients participating in this clinical trial will receive docetaxel chemotherapy, which is a commonly used chemotherapy to treat prostate cancer in addition to other existing prostate cancer therapies.
Half the patients will receive ZD4054 (Zibotentan), and half the patients will receive placebo in addition to docetaxel and other prostate cancer therapy. By participating in this trial there is a 50% chance that patients will receive an agent that may further slow the progression of the tumour.
No patients will be deprived of standard prostate cancer therapy.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall Survival
Median time (in months) from randomisation until death using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Measured: Patients were followed for survival up to 40 months
Secondary outcomes (7)
Progression Free Survival
Median time (in months) from randomisation until clinical progression of disease using the Kaplan-Meier method. Progression is defined, using RECIST, as a measurable increase in the smallest dimension of any target or non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions, since baseline
Measured: Patients were followed for progression up to 40 months
Incidence of Skeletal Related Events
Median time (in months) from randomisation until occurrence of a skeletal related event using the Kaplan-Meier method, where skeletal related event is defined as the first occurrence of a pathological fracture, a vertebral compression fracture not related to trauma, prophylactic surgery or radiation for impending fracture or spinal cord compression, or a spinal cord compression.
Measured: While receiving docetaxel study visits were aligned with its administration ie every 3weeks, after 12 weeks and completion of docetaxel therapy every 12 weeks (up to 40 months)
Time to Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Progression
Median time (in months) from randomisation until first PSA value >50% higher than baseline of at least 5ng/ml seen in at least 2 consecutive PSA values at least 2 weeks apart using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Measured: While receiving docetaxel study visits were aligned with its administration ie every 3weeks, after 12 weeks and completion of docetaxel therapy every 12 weeks (up to 40 months)
Time to Pain Progression
Median time (in months) from randomisation until date of first assessment of increased pain using the Kaplan-Meier method, where increased pain event is defined as the first of a patient requiring opiate medication for duration of ≥1 week for pain due to prostate cancer metastasis, pain due to metastasis that has an increase in the worst pain item of the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) from baseline to a minimum score of 5 with no decrease in analgesic use, or pain due to metastasis requiring radionuclide therapy, radiation therapy or surgery.
Measured: While receiving docetaxel study visits were aligned with its administration ie every 3weeks, after 12 weeks and completion of docetaxel therapy every 12 weeks (up to 40 months)
Pain Response
Number of patients with a pain response, defined as a decrease in brief pain inventory questionnaire (BPI) of at least 2 points from baseline or a decrease in opiate use of 25% from baseline.
Measured: While receiving docetaxel study visits were aligned with its administration ie every 3weeks, after 12 weeks and completion of docetaxel therapy every 12 weeks (up to 40 months)
Health Related Quality of Life
Median time (in months) from randomisation until deterioration of Health Related Quality of Life using the Kaplan-Meier method, where deterioration is defined as a change from baseline of less than or equal to -6 points in Total FACT-P score maintained for 2 consecutive visits.
Measured: While receiving docetaxel study visits were aligned with its administration ie every 3weeks, after 12 weeks and completion of docetaxel therapy every 12 weeks (up to 40 months)
PSA Response
PSA response defined as >50% decrease in serum PSA values from baseline seen in at least 2 consecutive PSA values at least 2 weeks apart.
Measured: While receiving docetaxel study visits were aligned with its administration ie every 3weeks, after 12 weeks and completion of docetaxel therapy every 12 weeks (up to 40 months)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Docetaxel and ZD4054 in people with Prostate Cancer, run by AstraZeneca at 147 sites in 26 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 4 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 10 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 147 sites in United States, Brazil, Germany, India, Australia and 21 more countries. 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 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 May 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?
Overall Survival (time frame: Patients were followed for survival up to 40 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00617669, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 10 Sep 2012.
