E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Cancer-induced bone pain arises from bone metastases (spread of malignant tumour from original site). For example breast and prostate cancer do have a tendency to spread to bone. Bone metastases can |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Is Saracatinib effective at reducing bone pain in cancer patients that have painful bone metastases by comparing patient’s self-reported pain ratings (0 – 10 point scale) after 4 weeks on treatment with pain scores from patients who receive placebo. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1 Does concomitant analgesic usage decrease when patients are on Saracatinib?
2.Do pain thresholds at symptomatic sites increase after treatment with Saracatinib?
3.Are pain-related symptoms and quality of life improved by saracatinib as shown using the BPI, QLQ-C30, BM-22 and GAPR questionnaires?
4.Is bone turnover further reduced by Saracatinib in patients already taking bisphosphonates or denosumab?
5.Is saracatinib use safe and acceptable in this patient population?
6.Is capturing patient reported outcomes using a telephone based interactive voice response system acceptable to this group of patients?

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1.Able to give written informed consent and willing to follow the study protocol. 2.Age ≥ 16 years. 3.Cytologically or histologically confirmed solid tumours of known primary site with painful bone metastases and poor control of bone pain 4.WHO performance status ≤ 2 5.Average baseline pain score ≥ 4 and ≤ 9 on a 0-10 numerical scale recorded over at least two separate days 6.Adequate baseline haematological, hepatic and renal function, defined as follows: Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 109/L, Haemoglobin >9.0 g/dL (can be after transfusion), Platelet count ≥ 100 x 109/L, Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN, ALT or AST ≤ 2.5 x ULN (≤ 5 x ULN if liver metastases), Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN, 7.Ability to take and absorb oral medications. 8.Female patients of childbearing potential (i.e. pre-menopausal females, females who have been menopausal for < 1 year and not surgically sterilized) must provide a negative pregnancy test (serum) ≤ 7 days before study treatment begins and must agree to practice effective contraceptive measures (oral contraceptive pill, intrauterine device or diaphragm with spemicide) plus condoms during the study and for 30 days after last dose of saracatinib. 9.Male patients with a partner of child-bearing potential (who is not using an acceptable highly effective method of contraception) or a pregnant partner must use effective contraceptive measures (see 8) plus condoms during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of saracatinib. Patients should abstain from sperm donation during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of saracatinib.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1.Life expectancy < 3 months. 2.Previous or planned radiotherapy at site of pain. 3.Unstable cardiac disease in last 3 months. 4.History of interstitial lung disease (bilateral, diffuse parenchymal lung disease) in view of known saracatinib-related pneumonitis. 5.Unable to discontinue any medication with known moderate or potent inhibitory effect on CYP3A4, or is a substrate of CYP3A4. 6.Concomitant cytotoxic chemotherapy unless established on maintenance treatment for > 6 weeks (not in a clinical trial). 7.Unable to understand written or spoken English as the primary outcome is dependent on completion of the BPI-SF questionnaire.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
