Registered outcomes14

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants Who Experienced a Hematopoietic ResponseUp to Day 28
A hematopoietic response was defined as an increase in a participant's hemoglobin (Hgb) of ≥1.0 g/dL above the study baseline value for 4 consecutive weeks, in the absence of red blood cell transfusion and/or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Experienced One or More Adverse Events (AEs)Up to approximately 6 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.
SecondaryTime to Progression (TTP)Up to 6 monthsTTP was defined as the time from date of randomization to date of diagnosis of progressive disease
SecondaryProgression Free Survival (PFS)Up to 12 monthsPFS was defined as the time from the start of study drug therapy to the first observation of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever came first
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)Up to 24 monthsOS was defined as the time between randomization and death
SecondaryOverall Response Rate (ORR)Up to 12 months
Overall Response was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved an objective confirmed complete (CR) or partial response (PR). Response was determined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v 1.1 guidelines. CR: The disappearance of all known disease and no new sites or disease-related symptoms confirmed at least 4 weeks after initial documentation. All sites must be assessed, including non-measurable sites, such as effusions, or markers. PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as a reference the baseline sum of the longest diameters confirmed at least 4 weeks after initial documentation and no new non-target lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. PR is also recorded when all measurable disease has completely disappeared, but a non-measurable component (i.e., ascites) is still present but not progressing.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Experienced an Improvement in Quality of Life ScoresUp to 6 months
Participants were to be assessed on improvement of quality of life using the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) Fatigue Scale (Version 4.0) and the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS). The FACIT Fatigue score ranges from 0 to 52, with 0 representing the best outcome and 52 representing the worst outcome. The LCSS is a 9-item patient-rated scale, 6 of which measure major symptoms (loss of appetite, fatigue, cough, dyspnoea, pain, and haemoptysis), and 3 of which are summation items related to total symptomatic distress, activity, and overall quality of life. Participants responses are measured using the mean score on the 9-item visual analogue scales, with 100-mm lines, with 0 representing the best outcome and 100 representing the worst outcome.
SecondaryArea Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time 0 to 28 Days (AUC0-28d) of Sotatercept Following a Single DosePre-dose 1 Day 1, 4 hours post-dose Day 1, Day 5, Day 8, Day 11, Day 15, Day 22, Day 28AUC0-28d is a measure of the mean concentration levels of a drug in the plasma from time 0 to 28 days.
SecondaryArea Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of Sotatercept Following a Single DosePre-dose 1 Day 1, 4 hours post-dose Day 1, Day 5, Day 8, Day 11, Day 15, Day 22, Day 29, Day 36, pre-dose 2 Day 43AUC0-inf is the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero (pre-dose) to extrapolated infinite time.
SecondaryMaximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Sotatercept Following a Single DosePre-dose 1 Day 1, 4 hours post-dose Day 1, Day 5, Day 8, Day 11, Day 15, Day 22, Day 29, Day 36, pre-dose 2 Day 43Cmax is a measure of the maximum amount of drug in the plasma after a dose is given.
