What is being measured

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

  1. Non-progression Rate at 2 Months

    Non-progression rate is defined as the rate of participants in complete or partial response or stable disease according to RECIST V1.1.

    Complete response is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions, partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters and stable disease occurs when neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for partial response nor sufficient increase to qualify for progression, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall Survival

    OS was was defined as the time from the treatment initiation to death due to any cause. Participants without documented death were censored at the date of the last follow-up or last patient contact. The OS was calculated using the product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data.

    Measured: Through Database Cutoff Date of 23-Jan-2015 (up to approximately 5 years and 7 months - median follow-up time of 14 months)

  2. Progression-free Survival

    Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from the initiation of treatment to the first documented progression (as per RECIST v1.1) or death (due to any cause), whichever occurs first. Per RECIST 1.1, PD was defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. Patients alive and progression free were censored at the date of last follow-up or last patient contact. The PFS per RECIST 1.1 was calculated using the product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data.

    Measured: Through Database Cutoff Date of 23-Jan-2015 (up to approximately 5 years and 7 months - median follow-up time of 14 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Temsirolimus in people with Relapsed Bladder Cancer, run by Institut Bergonié at 9 sites in France.

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 17 inclusion and 14 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 6 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in France. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Apr 2021). 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?

Non-progression Rate at 2 Months (time frame: 2 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 NCT01827943, 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 6 May 2021.
