Overall Survival (OS) [1] | ||||||||||||
End point description |
OS was the duration from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause. For subjects who are alive, overall survival was censored at the last contact. Death was determined from adverse event (AE) data where outcome was death or from follow-up contact data where the subject current status was death.

Time to Tumor Progression (TTP) | ||||||||||||
End point description |
TTP was defined as the time from first randomization to date of first documentation of objective tumor progression. If tumor progession data included more than (>) 1 date, the first date was to be used. TTP (in months) was calculated as first event date or last known progression-free date minus the first randomization date plus 1 divided by 30.4. Tumor progression was determined from oncologic assessment data (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease per Respones Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST]).

Objective Response Rate (ORR) - Percentage of Participants With Objective Response | ||||||||||||
End point description |
ORR was defined as the proportion of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to RECIST version 1.1, relative to all randomized participants. CR were those that persisted on repeat imaging study more than or equal to (>=) 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. PR was defined as >=30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions and non CR/non PD to non-target lesions. Participants who did not have on study radiographic tumor re-evaluation or who died, progressed or dropped out for any reason prior to reaching a CR or PR were to be counted as non-responders in the assessment of ORR. A participant who initially met the criteria for a PR and then subsequently became a confirmed CR, was to be assigned a best response of CR.

Duration of Response (DR) | ||||||||||||

DR was defined as the time from the first documentation of objective tumor response to the first documentation of objective tumor progression or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. If tumor progression data included >1 date, the first date was to be used. DR (in months) was calculated as the end date for DR minus date of first CR or PR that was subsequently confirmed plus 1 divided by 30.4. CR was defined as disapperance of all target lesions and non-target, if any. PR was defined as >=30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions and non CR/non PD to non-target lesions.
Analysis population description: Subgroup of subjects with objective response.

DCR was defined as the proportion of subjects with confirmed CR or confirmed PR or a best response of stable disease (SD) >=16 weeks according to RECIST, relative to all randomized subjects. CR was defined as disapperance of all target lesions. PR was defined as >=30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions and non CR/non PD to non-target lesions. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.

Change From Baseline in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Hepatobiliary Questionnaire (FACT-Hep) | ||||||||||||
End point description |
Patient reported outcomes (PROs) were assessed using the FACT-Hep. The FACT-Hep included the FACT-general (FACT-G) and a hepatobiliary module, it consisted of the 27-item FACT-G, which assessed generic health-related quality of life (HRQoL) concerns, and the 18-item hepatobiliary subscale (HS), which assessed disease-specific issues. The questionnaire used a 5 point Likert scale from ‘0’ “not at all” to ‘4’ “very much” regarding how much each item was present in the last 7 days; lower score indicated severer symptom. Eight of the items (lack of energy, pain, weight loss, back pain, fatigue, stomach pain/discomfort, nausea, and jaundice) made up the Fact Hepatobiliary Symptom Index (FHSI 8) were considered to be symptoms specific to hepatobiliary cancer.

26 Aug 2013 |
1) Section 5.2.5, Dose Reductions: Table 2, “PF 03446962 Dose Modification at Start of Subsequent Cycle” updated to reflect the most common type of toxicities associated with the administration of PF 03446962.

04 Nov 2013 |
1) The description of the safety profile of PF 0344962 has been expanded and updated in agreement with the current IB.
2) Some study secondary objectives have been expanded in order to clarify the translational research component of the study. The relevant study endpoints have also been clarified.
3) In order to limit patient burden and to support the identification of mechanism of resistance to PF 0344962, mandatory tumor biopsy collection at the time of disease progression has been limited to those patients randomized to PF 0344962 (Arm A) who progress after showing objective response or stable disease for at least 16 weeks after randomization.
4) The duration of treatment/active observation periods have been clarified in the study design section.
5) Some patient selection criteria have been clarified. Patients with known portal hypertension and untreated high risk esophageal varices have been excluded. Patients with history of any other malignancy in the previous 3 years have also been excluded.
6) Dose Modification Criteria for PF 03446962 have been clarified.
7) Schedule of Activities: inconsistencies between table and footnotes and some protocol sections have been fixed. Some footnotes have been reworded to improve clarity.IRC description has been added.
8) PRO testing on Day 8 of Cycle 1 has been added to Arm B.
9) EoT in non Member States has been defined.
10) Appendix 2 List of Laboratory Tests has been clarified.
11) Appendix 4 List of abbreviations and definitions of terms has been added.

||
08 Apr 2014 |
1) The study design has been changed from open label to double blind in order to minimize the risk of premature dropout from the comparator arm and preserve the integrity of the study.
2) Schedule of Activities and assessment types and frequencies have been made identical in both treatment arms.
3) A statement relevant to failure of targeted agents to show clinical benefit in the 2nd line treatment of HCC has been included upon IRB/health authority request.
4) Timing of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities occurrence has been removed from relevant secondary endpoints since it is not part of the standard safety analysis.
5) Reference to the pathology report and statement has been removed from the protocol with details included in the Study Manual.
6) The description of the Internal Review Committee role has been elaborated.
7) Editorial changes to address typos and align protocol language with updated protocol template have been made.
