Registered outcomes6

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTwo Year Event-free Survival (EFS)Up to Two Year After Enrollment
The two-year event-free survival will be compared with a standard established from adult oncology data and the results of POG-9486. The two-year Kaplan-Meier estimate of event-free survival will be compared with 70% using a 1-sided test of size 0.05 using the asymptotic distribution of the complementary log-log distribution of the estimate.
SecondaryPredictive Value of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) DNA as Measured by Quantitative Detection at Enrollment on EFS 2 Years After TreatmentAt study enrollmentPresence of EBV DNA in serum.
SecondaryPrognostic Significance of EBV Viral LoadAt study enrollmentViral load in blood.
SecondaryPredictive Value of the Detection of EBV DNA in the Peripheral BloodUp to 6 years
The prognostic value of the presence of EBV DNA will be assessed using the log-rank test, adjusted by initial stage of disease, if appropriate. The proposed analysis will take place at the analytic endpoint of the clinical trial.
