General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
Assessment of the therapeutic activity of capecitabine alone or in combination with mitomycin C in terms of progression-free survival rate at 6 months from treatment start in patients with advanced/metastatic biliary adenocarcinoma in progression after gemcitabine and platinum compounds.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Throughout the study, investigators prescribed any concomitant medication or treatment deemed necessary to provide adequate supportive care, as per protocol instructions, including therapeutic use of hematopoietic colony growth factors (granulocyte colony-stimulating factor [G-CSF]) and use of erythropoietin.
Dose adjustment and dose delay were foreseen in case of hematological and non hematological toxicity.

Patients were treated with Capecitabine 200mg/m2 alone, Day 1-14 of a 3-week cycle. Patients remained on treatment until disease progression, patient refusal, consent withdrawal, medical decision or for a maximum of 6 months. The continuation of treatment after 6 months was decided on an individual basis, taking into account tolerability, toxicity and response, in the interest of the patient. Patients who discontinued the treatment in absence of disease progression were followed up until documentation of disease progression or start of another anticancer therapy. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Patients Evaluable for Efficacy Analysis
|

Subject analysis set type |
Full analysis | ||
Subject analysis set description |
This is the patient population for the primary efficacy analysis of PFS-6 rate and consists of all eligible and treated patients who fulfil the following additional conditions:
• The patient has baseline tumor/oncologic assessment.
• The patient has received at least the first treatment cycle.
• The patient doesn’t die within the first 3 weeks of treatment, thus preventing any benefit from the therapy.
In case that the patient has not progressed or died before the 6 month tumour assessment and missed it, s/he will be classified as
• failure, if at the following assessment s/he is rated as PD or there is no further information or dies without a re-assessment.
• response, if at the following assessment s/he is SD or better
If deemed of clinical interest, patient disposition, baseline characteristics and treatment exposure will be presented also in this population.

End point title |
Progression-free survival rate at 6 months from treatment start (PFS-6) [1] | ||||||||||||
End point description |
The PFS-6 rate, is calculated as the proportion of evaluable patients known to be alive and progression-free at ≥ 6 months since study treatment start out of the total number of evaluable patients.
If 8 or more responses is achieved out of first 26 evaluable patients it is concluded that the regimen(s) deserve further exploration.
Supportive analyses of the primary endpoint include the estimation of the PFS-6 rate together with its exact, two-tail, 95% confidence interval and the estimation of the PFS curve by the Kaplan-Meier method in both the evaluable and the treated patient population.

Notes [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point. Justification: No formal comparison between the two arms was to be performed. The main goal of the study was to assess whether either of the regimens or both were worth being explored further in a confirmatory trial in the indication. |

Progression free survival | ||||||||||||
End point description |
Progression-free survival is calculated as the time from the treatment start to the date of first documentation of objective progression or of death due to any cause, whichever comes first. Subjects who have not progressed while on study and have not died while on study are censored at the last evaluable radiographic assessment date.

Objective Response Rate | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Objective Response Rate is the relative frequency of either a complete or partial response while on study; subjects prematurely discontinuing without a post-baseline tumour response assessment or subjects with an observed complete or partial response that is not confirmed are considered non-responders. Point and 95% confidence interval estimates are calculated for the objective tumor response rate. The analysis is performed in the evaluable and in the treated patient populations. The estimates of the rates of unconfirmed tumor objective responses ia also provided and considered as supportive.

End point description |
Overall Survival (OS) is the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. Subjects who are known to be alive or for whom a date of death is unknown, are censored on the later of the date of the last study assessment or last known telephone contact.

Disease Control Rate | ||||||||||||
End point description |
Disease Control Rate is the relative frequency of confirmed objective responses and long lasting (SD≥ 6 months) stabilizations measured from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of objective progression. Point and 95% confidence interval estimates are calculated for the disease control rate (confirmed CRs / PRs and SD >= 6 weeks). The analysis are performed in the evaluable and in the treated patient populations.

Adverse event reporting additional description |
The adverse events (AEs) are coded by the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) and their severity graded according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03. All SAEs and non-serious AEs are collected.
