Study groups in NCT01002248
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Perifosine added to combinationExperimentalPerifosine added to the combination of Bortezomib and Dexamethasone. Perifosine is is supplied as a film-coated tablet containing 50 mg of active ingredient. Perifosine will be administered orally on an outpatient basis throughout the study. Daily administration will be one 50 mg tablet. The first dose of perifosine should be taken on the same day that bortezomib and dexamethasone are administered (Cycle 1 Day 1).
Receives: Drug: Perifosine; Drug: Bortezomib; Drug: Dexamethasone
Perifosine Placebo added to combinationPlacebo comparatorPerifosine placebo added to the combination of Bortezomib and Dexamethasone. The placebo for perifosine is provided in 256 mg white to off-white, round, biconvex film-coated tablets to permit a blinded trial with perifosine 50 mg film coated tablets. Placebo will be administered orally on an outpatient basis throughout the study. Daily administration will be one perifosine placebo tablet. The first dose of placebo should be taken on the same day that bortezomib and dexamethasone are administered (Cycle 1 Day 1).
Receives: Drug: Perifosine Placebo; Drug: Bortezomib; Drug: Dexamethasone

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the PFS (progression free survival) in patients with multiple myeloma, treated with perifosine, bortezomib and dexamethasone compared to patients treated with placebo, bortezomib and dexamethasone

    Progression-free survival will be defined as the time between randomization and the date of progression that occurred during the Core Phase.

    Measured: 6 - 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    OS is defined as time from randomization to death from any cause during the Core Phase of the study.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  2. Overall response rate (ORR)

    The ORR for each treatment arm will be estimated as the proportion of responders, defined as a patient whose best overall response is PR or better during the treatment period, using criteria prospectively established.

    Measured: 6 - 24 months

  3. Adverse Events

    Each AE and SAE term submitted will be mapped to a preferred term (PT) using the MedDRA dictionary. The investigator will classify the severity of AEs using the NCI CTCAE v3.0 and will assess the relationship of each event to each study treatment.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Perifosine, Bortezomib and Dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by AEterna Zentaris at 86 sites in 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 86 sites in United States, Spain, Israel, Ireland, Russia and 4 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 was stopped early. 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?

Determine the PFS (progression free survival) in patients with multiple myeloma, treated with perifosine, bortezomib and dexamethasone compared to patients treated with placebo, bortezomib and dexamethasone (time frame: 6 - 24 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 NCT01002248, 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 9 Feb 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
