NCT01272037 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
Tamoxifen Citrate, Letrozole, Anastrozole, or Exemestane With or Without Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Invasive RxPONDER Breast Cancer
Draft scope assessment: unclear. Attached because the study's own record names HER2 and names HER2. The study was not selected for this indication by its sponsor, and its eligibility has not been reconciled against this page in full. Found because this study's registry identifier is printed in an FDA approval notice, an FDA product label or an NCI summary held by this site. The citing document and the exact position of the identifier inside it are recorded. Being cited is not a statement that the study supports this treatment.

Linked outcomes
From date of randomization (2nd Registration) to date of first invasive recurrence (local, regional or distant), second invasive primary cancer (breast or not), or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive who have not experienced recurrence or second primary cancer are censored at their last contact date. This is the STEEP definition of invasive disease-free survival. Kaplan-Meier estimates were calculated for the 5-year IDFS rate. Due to the results of the third prespecified interim analysis, prespecified separate analyses were conducted for all outcomes by menopausal status (see Statistical Analysis 2). The NCI and data and safety monitoring committee recommended early reporting of the data. After the primary analysis, changes in eligibility status were identified for three participants, making the population of eligible and evaluable participants different between the reporting of this outcome and both the Participant Flow section and the Adverse Events section.
Only adverse events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to study drug are reported. Assessed at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after randomization.
Time from date of randomization (2nd Registration) to date of death due to any cause. Participants last known to be alive are censored at their last contact date.
Time from date of randomization (2nd Registration) to date of invasive distant disease recurrence, second invasive primary cancer (breast or not) or death due to any cause. Participants last known to be alive who have not experienced distant recurrence, or second primary cancer are censored at their last contact date. This secondary outcome requires continuing to follow the patient after local recurrence in order to ascertain subsequent distant recurrence. Invasive recurrence is defined as: appearance of any new invasive lesion(s) during or after protocol treatment. Whenever possible, recurrences should be documented histologically. Invasive recurrence includes local, regional, or distant recurrence with an invasive component. A new diagnosis of ipsilateral or contralateral DCIS without an invasive component is not considered to be a recurrence.

Anxiety is evaluated with the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Emotional Distress-Anxiety Short Form. Raw PROMIS scores can be re-scaled into T-scores based on a reference population with a mean score of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores reflect greater anxiety. PROMIS Anxiety scores at the 6 month timepoint will be compared between the two randomized study arms separately by menopausal status.

- Assessed using the EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D), in which participants rate their health status in five different health-related domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The raw scores can be converted to index scores on a scale of 0 to 1, where a higher index score represents better health. EQ-5D index scores at the 6-month timepoint will be compared between the two randomized study arms separately by menopausal status.

- population note
- For the participants flow and baseline characteristics summary, 5018 eligible participants were included. However, among them, there were 34 participants (10 in the chemo and endocrine arm, and 24 in the endocrine alone arm) that withdrew consent immediately after randomization; thus these participants were excluded from the survival analyses.

- event definition
- Only participants who received protocol treatment and assessed for adverse event were included in the adverse event result: 2062 in the Chemo and Endocrine Therapy arm and 2342 in the Endocrine Therapy Alone arm. All-Cause mortality is reported for all eligible and evaluable participants (2487 in the Chemo and Endocrine arm and 2497 in the endocrine therapy arm). Due to eligibility changes found after the primary analysis, the number at risk differs from the Outcomes Section.
