Registered outcomes4
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Disease Free Survival (DFS) Benefit of Two Years Adjuvant Therapy With the COX-2 Inhibitor Celecoxib Compared With Placebo in Primary Breast Cancer Patients. | Patients will be followed up to 10 years. DFS will be calculated from date of randomization until the date of first documented DFS event, this will be assessed at 2 and 5 years | From time of randomisation to the date of first event; with events contributing to the analysis defined as loco-regional and distant breast cancer recurrence, new primary breast cancer (ipsilateral or contralateral) and death without disease relapse (intercurrent death) |
| Secondary | Overall Survival | Date of randomisation until the date of death from any cause or censored at the date the patient was last seen alive, this will be assessed at 2 and 5 years | First local recurrence and first distant recurrence will be recorded on separate parts of the CRF. In the event of local progression, all patients must be followed up for distant recurrence, second malignancy and survival. Similarly in the case of second malignancy, the appropriate CRF should be completed and patients should REACT Protocol, Version 39, dated 01.11.2016 Page 34 of 48 continue to be followed for disease progression and where possible the relation of any subsequent disease progression and/or death due to the primary or second cancer should be established. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Incidence of Second Primary Breast Cancers | From randomisation until a second primary breast cancer is diagnosed. Patients will be followed up to 10 years. | Any malignant contralateral breast disease will be included and recorded as a second primary |
| Secondary | Cardiovascular Mortality | Patients are followed up to 10 years, any deaths within this timeframe with cardiovascular involvement reported are included in the analysis. | Number of deaths recorded as having cardiovascular involvement are reported by treatment group. |
