Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With Grades 1-4 Adverse Events That Are Possibly, Probably, and/or Definitely Attributed to Pomalidomide | During each cycle and 4 weeks after completing therapy, with any continuing AE's observed until resolution, approximately 124 months and 1 day. | Adverse events (AE's) that are possibly, probably, and/or definitely attributed to pomalidomide were assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0. Grade 1 is mild. Grade 2 is moderate. Grade 3 is severe. Grade 4 is life-threatening. |
| Primary | Progression Free Survival (PFS) | time from day 1 of pomalidomide therapy until progression requiring a change in therapy, an average of 9.97 months | PFS is defined as time from day 1 of pomalidomide therapy until progression requiring a change in therapy, estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Progression was assessed using the Modified Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Clinical Trials Group criteria. Progressive disease (PD) involved a 25% or greater increase in total lesions, nodular lesion, or area of the five indicator lesions. |
| Primary | Maximal Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Pomalidomide | At pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 1, and pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. | Plasma concentrations of pomalidomide were assayed using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection with a lower limit of quantitation of 1 ng/mL and were recorded as observed values. A non-compartmental analysis was used to calculate plasma pharmacokinetic parameters (Pharsight, Mountain View, California). |
| Primary | Time to Maximum Observed Serum Concentration of Pomalidomide (Cmax) | At pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 1, and pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. | Time to maximum observed serum concentration of Pomalidomide was reported. |
| Primary | Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) to the Last Timepoint (AUCLast) | At pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 1, and pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. | Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) was calculated using the log-linear trapezoidal method. The AUC is a measure of the serum concentration of the drug over time. It is used to characterize drug absorption. |
| Primary | Area Under the Curve Extrapolated to Infinity (AUCinf) | At pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 1, and pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. | AUC is a measure of the serum concentration of Pomalidomide over time. It is used to characterize drug absorption. The AUC extrapolated to infinity was used, unless the percent extrapolated exceeded 25% in which case AUC to the last quantifiable time point (AUCLast) was used. The steady-state exposure on Day 15 of cycle 1 was calculated using AUCLast. |
| Primary | Half-Life of Pomalidomide | At pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 1, and pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours after dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. | Plasma decay half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration of the drug to decrease by one half. |
| Secondary | Antitumor Effect of a Second Course of Pomalidomide | After completion of 2 cycles of therapy up to 48 weeks after the start of the second course of Pomalidomide | Antitumor effect of pomalidomide was assessed at the established tolerated dose after a second course of pomalidomide. Kaposi sarcoma responses were assessed using the Modified Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Clinical Trials Group criteria. Complete Response (CR) required clinical resolution of all lesions and tumor-associated phenomenon with biopsy confirmation. Clinical Complete Response (cCR) is resolution of all lesions except for some residual pigmentation but who did not have a biopsy of a representative pigmented area. Partial Response (PR) required ≥ 50% decrease in the number of lesions and/or sum product of the diameters of marker lesions and/or nodularity of lesions, and no new lesions in previously uninvolved areas or criteria. Stable Disease (SD) was assessed for all participants who did not meet criteria doe CR, PR, or PD. And progressive disease (PD) involved a 25% or greater increase in total lesions, nodular lesion, or area of the five indicator lesions. |
| Secondary | Antitumor Effect of a First Course of Pomalidomide | After completion of 2 cycles of therapy up to 48 weeks | Antitumor effect of pomalidomide was assessed at the established tolerated dose after a first course of pomalidomide. Kaposi sarcoma responses were assessed using the Modified Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Clinical Trials Group criteria. Complete Response (CR) required clinical resolution of all lesions and tumor-associated phenomenon with biopsy confirmation. Clinical Complete Response (cCR) is resolution of all lesions except for some residual pigmentation but who did not have a biopsy of a representative pigmented area. Partial Response (PR) required ≥ 50% decrease in the number of lesions and/or sum product of the diameters of marker lesions and/or nodularity of lesions, and no new lesions in previously uninvolved areas or criteria. Stable Disease (SD) was assessed for all participants who did not meet criteria doe CR, PR, or PD. And progressive disease (PD) involved a 25% or greater increase in total lesions, nodular lesion, or area of the five indicator lesions. |
| Secondary | Self-Reported Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) Instrument: Functional Assessment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection (FAHI) | Baseline, after 3 months of therapy, and after completion of therapy, up to 48 weeks | Changes in quality of life in participants receiving pomalidomide. HRQL was analyzed using a mixed-model repeated-measures analysis for FAHI and the marginal homogeneity test for Kaposi sarcoma-specific questions such as physical well-being (PWB), emotional well-being (EWB), functional and global well-being (FGWB), social well-being (SWB), and cognitive functioning (CF). The range of possible scores for each subscale was as follows: PWB and EWB, 0 to 40; FGWB, 0 to 52; SWB, 0 to 32; CF, 0 to 12. The total FAHI score, with possible scores ranging from 0 to 176, was calculated as the sum of all five subscale values, with higher scores indicating better results. Questionnaires completed at early withdrawal visits were not included in the analyses. |
