NCT01667419 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
A Study of Vemurafenib Adjuvant Therapy in Participants With Surgically Resected Cutaneous BRAF-Mutant Melanoma
Draft scope assessment: unclear. Attached because the study's own record names BRAF. The study record does not state V600, so it may describe a different alteration of the same gene. 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
DFS was defined as the time from randomization until the date of the first local, regional, or distant melanoma recurrence, occurrence of new primary melanoma, or death from any cause.
DMFS was defined as the time from randomization until the date of diagnosis of distant (i.e. non-locoregional) metastases or death from any cause.
OS is defined as the time from randomization until the date of death from any cause.
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product, regardless of causal attribution.
European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 30-Item Quality of Life Questionnaire assesses 8 symptoms, function, financial difficulties, and a global health status/health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Most questions use a 4-point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much';2 questions use a 7-point scale (1 'very poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores were averaged and transformed to a 0-100 scale. Higher scores for the function and HRQoL represent higher levels of functioning and HRQoL, higher scores for the symptom represent higher levels of symptoms/problems, higher score for financial difficulty represent higher level of perceived financial burden of treatment. Changes of 5-10 points are considered to represent a minimally important difference to participants. A positive value means an increase, and negative value means a decrease in score at the indicated time-point relative to the score at baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1).

- measure definition
- European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 30-Item Quality of Life Questionnaire assesses 8 symptoms, function, financial difficulties, and a global health status/health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Most questions use a 4-point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much';2 questions use a 7-point scale (1 'very poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores were averaged and transformed to a 0-100 scale. Higher scores for the function and HRQoL represent higher levels of functioning and HRQoL, higher scores for the symptom represent higher levels of symptoms/problems, higher score for financial difficulty represent higher level of perceived financial burden of treatment. Changes of 5-10 points are considered to represent a minimally important difference to participants. A positive value means an increase, and negative value means a decrease in score at the indicated time-point relative to the score at baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1).
