Note: (1)The treatment of each line advanced disease includes one or more drugs with a medication time ≥ 1 cycle. (2) Early adjuvant/neo-adjuvant therapy is allowed. If recurrence occurs during adjuvant/neoadjuvant therapy or within ≤24 weeks after completion, adjuvant/neoadjuvant therapy is considered to be a first-line pre-systemic chemotherapy for advanced disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival [PFS]

    From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 36 months

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Objective tumor response rate [ORR]

    ORR is defined as the percentage of subjects having achieved confirmed Complete Response + Partial Response as best overall response according to radiological assessments.

    Measured: 1year

  2. disease control rate [DCR]

    Investigators will assess treatment response according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1(RECIST1.1)

    Measured: 1year

  3. Duration of response [DoR]

    Duration of response

    Measured: 1year

  4. overall survival [OS]

    OS is defined as the length of time from random assignment to death or to last contact.

    Measured: 3year

  5. Adverse Events [AEs]

    AEs are evaluated according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.0

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 10 inclusion and 15 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tao Zhang, Doctor ((+86)18971656660, 1277577866@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression Free Survival [PFS] (time frame: 36 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 NCT05029453, which also lists 11 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 31 Aug 2021.
