E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of palifosfamide-tris in combination with carboplatin and etoposide (PaCE) chemotherapy to carboplatin and etoposide (CE) alone, as measured by overall survival (OS), in chemotherapy naïve subjects with extensivestage SCLC |
L'obiettivo primario di questo studio è confrontare l’efficacia della palifosfamide-tris in combinazione con la chemioterapia con carboplatino ed etoposide (PaCE) rispetto al solo carboplatino ed etoposide (CE), come provato dalla sopravvivenza complessiva (Overall Survival, OS), in soggetti con carcinoma polmonare a piccole cellule in fase estensiva naive alla chemioterapia |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are to: - Assess secondary efficacy endpoints including time to progression, objective response rate (ORR), response duration, and effects on quality of life (QOL) and disease-related symptoms. - Assess potential prognostic factors for OS (i.e., performance status, age, and gender). - Assess the safety of PaCE chemotherapy in the study population. - Collect tumor tissue samples for future analyses of potential biomarkers that may correlate with objective tumor response and/or clinical outcome. |
Gli obiettivi secondari sono:- Valutazione degli endpoint secondari inclusa la sopravvivenza senza progressione,il tasso di risposta obiettiva (Objective Response Rate,ORR),la durata della risposta obiettiva,gli effetti sulla qualità della vita (Quality Of Life,QOL) e sui sintomi correlati alla malattia.- Valutare i fattori prognostici potenziali per la OS (ovvero,performance status,età e sesso).- Valutare la sicurezza della chemioterapia PaCE nella popolazione in studio.- Raccogliere campioni di tessuto tumorale per analisi future di potenziali biomarcatori che potrebbero essere correlati alla risposta tumorale obiettiva e/o all’esito clinico. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary efficacy variable, overall survival, is defined as the time from randomization to the date of death. |
La variabile primaria sull'efficacia è la sopravvivenza complessiva, definita come il tempo dalla randomizzazione alla data del decesso |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
The study design uses an adaptive group sequential approach with sample size reestimation at the interim analysis. This interim analysis will be performed after 125 deaths have been observed. |
Il disegno dello studio utilizza un approccio sequenziale del gruppo adattivo con rivalutazione della dimensione del campione per l’analisi ad interim. L’analisi ad interim sarà eseguita dopo che saranno stati osservati 125 decessi. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
For study purposes, data for tumor-related endpoints (e.g., ORR) will be determined by the investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.1 Tumor-related secondary efficacy variables are defined as the following: - TTP (time to progression): Time from randomization to the first date of PD. For subjects who have not progressed at the time of analysis, their TTP will be censored as of their last date of disease evaluation. Death due to disease is considered to be progressive disease. - Objective response rate (ORR): Proportion of subjects achieving a confirmed PR or CR according to RECIST v1.1 during study treatment or within 21 days following termination of study treatment. All objective responses (CR or PR) require confirmation by a repeat tumor assessment at least 4 weeks (28 days) after the response is first observed in order for the response to be considered confirmed. - Objective response duration: Time from the date of first objective response (PR or CR), with subsequent confirmation, until the date of PD or the occurrence of death (if death occurs earlier). Duration of response in subjects who have not progressed or died at the time of analysis will be censored as of the date of their last tumor assessment. |
Ai fini dello studio, i dati degli endpoints legati al tumore (es. ORR)saranno valutati dagli sperimentatori in base ai Criteri di valutazione della riposta nei tumori solidi (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors, RECIST) linee guida v 1.1.1. Le variabili secondarie sull'efficacia relative al tumore sono le seguenti: - TTP (tempo dalla progressione): Tempo dalla randomizzazione alla prima PD. Per i pazienti non in progressioni al momento dell'analisi, TTP sarà censita come la data dell'ultima valutazione di malattia. La morte dovuta alla malattia è considerata progressione di malattia. Percentuale di risposta oggettiva (ORR): proporzione dei soggetti che raggiungono remissione completa o parziale. secondo RECIST v 1.1 durante il trattamento in studio o entro 21 giorni dal termine del trattamento in studio. Tutte le risposte oggettive (CR o PR) richiedono conferma con ripetizione della misurazione del tumore almeno 4 settimane (28 giorni) dopo la prima risposta osservata, prima di essere considerati confermati. - Durata della risposta ooggettiva: tempo dalla data della prima risposta oggettiva(PR o CR), con conseguente conferma, fino alla data di PD o il decesso (se avviene prima la morte). Durata della risposta nei soggetti che non hanno progredito o sono morti al momento dell'analisi verranno censiti come data dell'ultima misurazione del tumore. |
