Registered outcomes6
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Grade 2-4 Taxane-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (TIPN) by Genotype Risk Group in Arm A | assessed at baseline, an end of each cycle, at 6 months and 1 year post registration | Grade 2-4 TIPN was assessed by treating physician using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. All patients who started protocol therapy on arm A (paclitaxel) were included in the analysis. The percentage of participants with grade 2-4 TIPN was calculated based on binomial distribution and was compared between high-risk vs low-risk genotype groups using Fisher exact test. Genotype risk group (high vs. low) was determined by genotyping. High-risk genotype was defined by FCAMR GG genotype (homozygous wild type) or SBF2 mutated. Low-risk genotype was defined by carriage of at least one variant allele in FCAMR (AG or AA) and SBF2 wild-type status. |
| Secondary | Patient-Reported Neuropathy Score Change Between Baseline and End of Treatment by Genotype Risk Group in Patients on Arm A | assessed at baseline and at end of treatment, an average of 3 months | The patient-reported neurotoxicity was assessed using the 11 items about neurotoxicity in the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group - Neurotoxicity (FACT/GOG-Ntx) questionnaire (i.e., FACT/GOG-Ntx additional concerns subscale). The neurotoxicity total score was the sum of the scores for the 11 items, ranging from 0 to 44. Higher values of the FACT/GOG-Ntx neurotoxicity total score indicate less neurotoxicity. The FACT/GOG-Ntx neurotoxicity total score change between the baseline and at end of treatment (negative value indicates worsening symptom, positive value indicates improving symptom) was calculated and compared using two-sample t test. Genotype risk group (high vs. low) was determined by genotyping. High-risk genotype was defined by FCAMR GG genotype (homozygous wild type) or SBF2 mutated. Low-risk genotype was defined by carriage of at least one variant allele in FCAMR (AG or AA) and SBF2 wild-type status. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Grade 2-4 TIPN Based on CTCAE Between Arm A and Arm B | assessed at baseline, an end of each cycle, at 6 months and 1 year post registration | Grade 2-4 TIPN was assessed by treating physician using CTCAE version 4.0. All patients who started protocol therapy were included in the analysis. The percentage of participants with grade 2-4 TIPN was calculated based on binomial distribution and was compared between treatment arms using Fisher exact test. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Dose Reduction Due to TIPN Between Arm A and Arm B | Dose reduction due to TIPN was assessed at end of each cycle, up to 4 cycles in arm A and 6 cycles in arm B | The percentage of patients with dose reduction due to TIPN was calculated as number of patients with dose reduction due to peripheral neuropathy for any dose of any cycle divided by total number of patients who started protocol therapy. The percentages were calculated along with exact 95% CI based on binomial distribution and were compared between arms using Fisher exact test. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Dose Reduction Due to Any Reason Between Arm A and Arm B | Dose reduction due to any reason was assessed at end of each cycle, up to 4 cycles in arm A and 6 cycles in arm B | The percentage of patients with dose reduction due to any reason was calculated as number of patients with any dose reduction for any dose of any cycle, regardless of the reason, divided by total number of patients who started protocol therapy. The percentages were calculated along with exact 95% CI based on binomial distribution and were compared between arms using Fisher exact test. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Grade 2-4 TIPN by Genotype Risk Group in Arm B | assessed at baseline, at end of each cycle, at 6 months and 1 year post registration | Grade 2-4 TIPN was assessed by treating physician using CTCAE version 4.0. All patients who started protocol therapy on arm B were included in the analysis. The percentage of participants with grade 2-4 TIPN was calculated based on binomial distribution and was compared between high-risk vs low-risk genotype groups using Fisher exact test. Genotype risk group (high vs. low) was determined by genotyping. High-risk genotype was defined by FCAMR GG genotype (homozygous wild type) or SBF2 mutated. Low-risk genotype was defined by carriage of at least one variant allele in FCAMR (AG or AA) and SBF2 wild-type status. |
