About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo-controlled, 2-parallel Groups, Phase 3 Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Masitinib in Combination With Docetaxel to Placebo in Combination With Docetaxel in First Line Metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)

Study of masitinib plus docetaxel as first-line chemotherapy in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of masitinib in combination with docetaxel and prednisone with respect to placebo in combination with docetaxel and prednisone in the treatment of first line metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC). Approximately 580 patients will be randomized in 2 groups with a ratio 1:1. The primary outcome measure is progression free survival. Masitinib is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is thought to promote survival via modulation of immunostimulation-mediated anticancer effects and modulation of the tumor microenvironment.

Being tested
Masitinib, Docetaxel, Prednisone, Placebo
Keywords
metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer, tyrosine kinase inhibitor, mCRPC, mHRPC

What participants receive

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Masitinib & docetaxelExperimentalParticipants receive masitinib (6 mg/kg/day), given orally twice daily, plus docetaxel 75 mg/m2 by intravenous infusion during 1 hour, once every 3 weeks (1 cycle = 21 days) for 6 cycles (8 to 10 cycles can be performed according to patient's tolerance) plus prednisone according to usual practice.
Receives: Drug: Masitinib; Drug: Docetaxel; Drug: Prednisone
Placebo & docetaxelPlacebo comparatorParticipants receive placebo (6 mg/kg/day), given orally twice daily, plus docetaxel 75 mg/m2 by intravenous infusion during 1 hour, once every 3 weeks (1 cycle = 21 days) for 6 cycles (8 to 10 cycles can be performed according to patient's tolerance) plus prednisone according to usual practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival

    Progression Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the randomization date until the date of earliest evidence of disease progression or death, for participants who progressed or died before subsequent cancer therapy. Disease progression will be assessed according to the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 2 (PCWG2) recommendations.

    Measured: From day of randomization to disease progression or death, assessed for a maximum of 60 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall Survival

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as time in months from the randomization date to the date of death due to any cause. If a patient is not known to have died, then OS will be censored at the date of last known date patient alive.

    Measured: From day of randomization to death, assessed for a maximum of 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Masitinib, Docetaxel and Prednisone in people with Metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer, run by AB Science at 9 sites in 6 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 5 inclusion and 1 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 29 Sep 2023. 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 Italy, Russia, Canada, France, India and 1 more country. 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?

Progression Free Survival (time frame: From day of randomization to disease progression or death, assessed for a maximum of 60 months). 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 29 Sep 2023.
