E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Response rate (RR) according to the RECIST Criteria |
Tasso di risposta (RR) in conformità con i criteri RECIST. |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Taking into account the relatively rarity of the disease and the strict selection criteria (Her2/neu negative and Royal Marsden Prognostic score 0-1), it is anticipated that a total of three eligible patients per month will be randomized, considering also a 10% of not evaluable patients, a 27 month period of accrual and further 18 month of follow up will be estimated to reach the primary and secondary objective |
Considerando la relativa rarità della patologia e i ristrettivi criteri di inclusione, si prevede un periodo di 27 mesi di arruolamento e ulteriori 18 mesi di follow-up. La rilevazione inizierà a questo punto |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
- Progression free survival (PFS), - Overall Survival (OS), - Disease Control Rate (DCR), - Safety profile, - Quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-STO22). |
Valutare: - Tempo alla progressione (PFS), - Sopravvivenza complessiva (OS), - Beneficio Clinico(CB), - Profilo di sicurezza, - Qualità della vita (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-STO22). |
