About this study
Official title: A Multinational, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of AVE5026 in the Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) in Cancer Patients at High Risk for VTE and Who Are Undergoing Chemotherapy
The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of once daily subcutaneous injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with placebo in the prevention of venous thromboembolism [VTE] in cancer patients at high risk for VTE and who were undergoing chemotherapy.
The secondary objectives were to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026), to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposures, to try identifying a metagene predictor of VTE and to assess the survival status at one year in this population.
Read the detailed description
Randomization had to take place just prior to the first study drug injection (randomization ratio 1:1).
The study period per participant was variable depending on the duration of chemotherapy. It included:
- a screening period up to 3 weeks,
- a double-blind treatment period,
- a follow-up period of 1 month.
Study end date was at the latest 7 months following the randomization of the last participant (6 months treatment and 1 month follow-up).

|---|---|---|

| Placebo | Placebo comparator | Placebo (for semuloparin) once daily until change in chemotherapy regimen Receives: Drug: Placebo (for semuloparin) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Venous Thromboembolism Event [VTE] or VTE-related Death
VTE included any symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis [DVT] of lower or upper limbs and any non-fatal Pulmonary Embolism [PE] as confirmed by a Central Independent Adjudication Committee [CIAC] after review of compression ultrasound or venography for DVT, ventilation/perfusion lung scan, pulmonary angiogram or spiral computer tomography lung scan for PE.
VTE-related death included fatal PE and unexplained deaths without confirmatory autopsy. Any sudden death could be classified as fatal PE by the CIAC unless diagnostic test results strongly indicated an alternative diagnosis".
Measured: From randomization up to 3 days after last study drug injection
Time-to-first Occurrence of VTE or VTE-related Death (Cumulative Incidence Function)
Participants alive and not having experienced VTE were right censored at last study drug injection plus 3 days. In order to correct for competing risks (Deaths other than VTE-related death), a model of cause-specific hazards was used to estimate the Cumulative incidence Function with Prentice non-parametric estimator.
Measured: From randomization up to 3 days after last study drug injection
Secondary outcomes (3)
Percentage of Participants who required the initiation of curative anticoagulant or thrombolytic treatment after VTE assessment
Initiation of curative anticoagulant or thrombolytic treatment after VTE assessment was defined from investigator's answer to the question "was the subject treated for VTE?" asked after diagnostic tests for suspected VTE and after lung imaging test for tumor evaluation.
Measured: From randomization up to 3 days after last study drug injection
Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Clinically Relevant Bleedings
Clinically Relevant Bleedings included overt bleedings classified by the CIAC as:
- "major" (fatal, in a critical area/organ, causing a drop in hemoglobin ≥2 g/dL or requiring transfusion ≥2 units of blood)
- "clinically relevant non-major" (requiring medical intervention and not meeting criteria for major bleeding).
Measured: From first study drug injection up to 3 days after last study drug injection
Overall survival [OS]
Survival status was collected for all participants either one year after randomization, or at the study end date, (ie, 7 months following randomization of the last patient), whichever came first.
OS was defined as the time from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause. Participants alive were censored at last date of contact that they were known to be alive.
Measured: From randomization up to 1 year after randomization or 7 months following randomization of the last participant, whichever came first

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Semuloparin sodium in people with Venous Thromboembolism and Cancer, run by Sanofi at 411 sites in 49 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 1 inclusion and 7 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 23 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 411 sites in United States, Germany, Brazil, Russia, India and 44 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
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?
Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Venous Thromboembolism Event [VTE] or VTE-related Death (time frame: From randomization up to 3 days after last study drug injection). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00694382, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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 23 Jan 2013.
