Comparison of Fulvestrant (FASLODEX™) 250 mg and 500 mg in Postmenopausal Women With Oestrogen Receptor Positive Advanced Breast Cancer Progressing or Relapsing After Previous Endo

Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. 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.

Change From Randomisation in Trial Outcome Index (TOI) Over the Course of the Study
measure definition
Mean (and standard deviation) change from randomisation until treatment discontinuation in TOI (defined as the first visit response of 'worsened' which is a decrease in TOI from baseline of 5 points or more) using the Kaplan-Meier method. If a subject has not shown a reduction of 5 points or more at the time of analysis then the observation will be right censored using the last QOL assessment date. Trial Outcome Index (TOI) is derived from the FACT-B questionnaire (Cella et al, 1993) by adding together the scores from the following 3 subscales; Physical well-being (PWB), Functional well-being (FWB) and Breast cancer subscale (BCS). The TOI score range is 0-92 with the higher scores representing the more favourable outcomes. Data were collected from a subgroup of patients.
time frame
TOI questionnaires were completed every 4 weeks from randomisation until week 24 and then again at treatment discontinuation, for study duration (48 months)
