NCT01274338 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Ipilimumab or High-Dose Interferon Alfa-2b in Treating Patients With High-Risk Stage III-IV Melanoma That Has Been Removed by Surgery

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. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. 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.

primary · POSTED

Recurrence-free survival is defined as the time from randomization to recurrence or death, whichever occurs first. The following criteria constitute the only acceptable evidence of disease recurrence. Lung and liver: Positive cytology or biopsy in the presence of a single new lesion or the appearance of multiple lesions consistent with metastatic disease. Central Nervous System: A positive brain CT or MRI scan or CSF cytology. Cutaneous, Subcutaneous and Lymph Node Recurrence: Positive cytology or biopsy in the presence of a single new lesion or the appearance of multiple lesions consistent with metastatic disease. Bone and Other Organs: Positive cytology or biopsy in the presence of a single new lesion or the appearance of multiple lesions consistent with metastatic disease identified on two different radiologic studies: i.e., positive nuclear bone scan or PET scan and contrast GI series or ultrasound, X-ray or CT of abdomen for abdominal disease.

The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) is a 27-item questionnaire that has four areas of measurements (physical well-being, social/family well-being, emotional well-being and functional well-being) with a scale of 0-4. The FACT-G total score ranges between 0 and 108. The higher the score, the better the quality of life. Change in FACT-G total score from baseline to 3 months was calculated as month 3 score - baseline score.

Patients with baseline and 3-month FACT-G assessments were included in this analysis. Pediatric patients did not participate in the quality of life part of the study.

secondary · POSTED

The diarrhea subscale of The Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Diarrhea (FACIT-D) is an 11-item questionnaire with a scale of 0-4. The FACIT-D diarrhea subscale score ranges between 0 and 44. The higher the score, the better the quality of life. Change in FACIT-D diarrhea subscale score from baseline to 3 months was calculated as month 3 score - baseline score.

Patients with baseline and 3-month FACIT-D diarrhea subscale assessments were included in this analysis. Pediatric patients did not participate in the quality of life part of the study.
