Registered outcomes8

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryProgression Free Survival (PFS)Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 monthsPFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until disease progression per RECIST 1.1 criteria assessed by investigator, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
PrimaryOverall Survival (OS)Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 monthsOS, is defined as the time from date of randomization until date of death from any cause.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability of Ibrutinib and Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine Versus Placebo in Combination With Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine.Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 monthsThis is a measure of percentage of subjects with Treatment Emergent Adverse Events Grade 3 or above collected Up to 30 days after the last participating subject discontinues study drug.
SecondaryOverall Response RateResults at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 monthsORR is defined as the percentage of subjects who achieve a complete response or partial response, based on investigator assessment according to RECIST 1.1.
SecondaryClinical Benefit ResponseResults at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Subject achieved a ≥50% reduction in pain intensity (Memorial Pain Assessment Card \[MPAC\]) or analgesic consumption, or a 20-point or greater improvement in KPS for a period of at least 4 consecutive weeks, without showing any sustained worsening in other parameters. OR Subject was stable on all of the aforementioned parameters, and showed a marked, sustained weight gain (≥7% increase maintained for ≥4 weeks) not due to fluid accumulation (Burris 1997).
SecondaryCarbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) ResponseResults at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
The CA19-9 response rate is defined as the percentage of subjects with a decline of 20%, 90%, and other thresholds considered clinically meaningful, from baseline. This is a percentage of patients with \> or = 60% reduction from baseline.
SecondaryPatient-reported Outcome (PRO) by European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30).Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Unit is the month: TUDD1 - the time between random \& 1st occurrence of a decrease in QLQ-C30 score ≥10 pts w/o improvement in QoL score of ≥10 points or any further QoL data due to deterioration. The proportion of subjects who met the "responder" criteria prior to subsequent anticancer therapy initiation. Response defined as achievement of a ≥50% reduction in MPAC visual analog scale which measures pain intensity or analgesic consumption, or a ≥20-point improvement from baseline in KPS sustained for a period of ≥ 4 consecutive weeks without showing any sustained worsening from baseline in any of the other parameters OR Subject stable on all parameters (pain and KPS), \& showed a marked, sustained weight gain (≥7% increase from baseline maintained for ≥4 weeks) not due to fluid accumulation.
SecondaryRate of Venous Thromboembolic Events (VTE)Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 monthsThe VTE rate is defined as percentage of subjects with Venous thromboembolic events (SMQ) per investigator assessment.

The safety population included 420 subjects and was used for the analyses of all safety endpoints and included all subjects in the ITT population who received at least 1 dose of study drug (ibrutinib, placebo, nab-paclitaxel, or gemcitabine).
