Registered outcomes8
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Phase I: Recommended Phase II Dose of Vorinostat | During Cycle 1 of treatment | Recommended Phase ll dose of vorinostat that can be safely combined with gemcitabine and docetaxel. Gemcitabine and docetaxel were given at a fixed dose while vorinostat was dose-escalated using a standard '3+3' design. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as specific study drug-related events experienced during Cycle 1; only DLTs observed in a patient during the first cycle of treatment will be used for the dose escalation decision. |
| Primary | Six-month Progression-free Survival (PFS) | Up to 6 months (per patient) | Proportion of participants whose disease does not progress within 6 months of start of treatment (number of patients without progressive disease/total number of patients). Per RECIST v1.1, progressive disease (PD) is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm. For non-target lesions, PD: Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. |
| Secondary | Objective Response Rate (ORR) | Up to 7 years and 7 months | Number of patients with Complete response \[CR\] + partial response \[PR\], per RECIST v1.1 criteria . Per RECIST v1.1, CR: Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes(whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. For non-target lesions: Disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level. All lymph nodes must be non-pathological in size (\<10mm short axis);PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters |
| Secondary | Progression-free Survival (PFS) | Up to 7 years and 7 months | The median length of time from the beginning of study treatment that patients remain alive without progression of their disease (cancer). Per RECIST v1.1, progressive disease (PD) is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm. For non-target lesions, PD: Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. |
| Secondary | One-year Progression-free Survival (PFS) | Up to one year (per patient) | Proportion of participants whose disease does not progress within one year of start of treatment (number of patients with progressive disease/total number of patients). Per RECIST v1.1, progressive disease (PD) is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm. For non-target lesions, PD: Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. |
| Secondary | Overall Survival (OS) | Up to 7 years and 7 months | The median length of time from the start of treatment that diagnosed study participants remain alive. |
| Secondary | Six-month Overall Survival (OS) | Up to 6 months (per patient) | Proportion of participants alive at six months from the start of treatment. |
| Secondary | One-year Overall Survival (OS) | Up to one year (per patient) | Proportion of participants alive at one year from the start of treatment. |
