E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The clinical response will be determined in terms of decrease in tumor size on examination, according to RECIST criteria (PR is >30% decrease in size, PD is >20% increase in size, SD is in between while CR is no measurable disease). In patients with cutaneous angiosarcoma, documentation will be performed with color photography, including a ruler to estimate the size of the lesion. Otherwise radiologic assessments will be used to evaluate anti-tumor activity. If propranolol leads to a response in ≥3 out of 14 patients, this treatment modality is highly interesting and should be tested further in a randomized trial. A response is defined as CR, PR, or SD with an improvement in clinical characteristics, like thickness, erythema, necrosis or edema of the inflicted area in case of clinically evaluable disease (cutaneous angiosarcoma). |
De klinische respons wordt gemeten aan de hand van de beoordeling van de tumorgrootte middels RECIST criteria (PR is >30% afname in grootte, PD is >20% toename in grootte, SD is verandering hiertussen in en CR is wanneer er geen meetbare ziekte meer is). Bij patiënten met een cutaan angiosarcoom zal beoordeling van de tumorlaesie middels een kleurenfoto inclusief meetlint geschieden. Als ≥3 van de 14 patiënten een respons laten zien op de studiebehandeling, dan beschouwen we propranolol als interessant om verder onderzocht te worden in een gerandomiseerde studie. Een respons is gedefinieerd als CR of PR, of SD met een verbetering van klinische kenmerken zoals dikte, erytheem, necrose of oedeem van de tumor als de laesie klinisch te evalueren is (cutaan angiosarcoom). |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
weekly evaluation on the outpatient clinic |
evaluatie zal wekelijks op de poli plaatsvinden |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
The histologic response on propranolol treatment in terms of difference in proliferation index by immunohistochemistry staining of Ki-67 and in tumor activity will be determined between the post-treatment biopsy (obtained during surgery if applicable) and the diagnostic biopsy. A decrease of >30% of Ki-67 staining was stated as a positive histologic response. |
De histologische respons op propranolol zal worden bepaald aan de hand van het verschil in de proliferatie index (immunohistochemische kleuring op Ki-67) en de tumoractiviteit tussen het pre- en postbehandelingsbiopt. Bij een afname van >30% in de Ki-67 kleuring is er sprake van een positieve pathologische respons. |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
The pretreatment biopsy, obtained during screening, will be compared with the biopsy after the study treatment (after 3-6 weeks of propranolol). |
Het prebehandelingsbiopt dat tijdens de screening wordt afgenomen zal worden vergeleken met het postbehandelingsbiopt (na 3-6 weken behandeling met propranolol). |
