NCT01064310 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Patient Preference Study of Pazopanib Versus Sunitinib in Advanced or Metastatic Kidney Cancer

Draft scope assessment: unclear. Attached because the study's own record describes metastatic disease. 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.

primary · POSTED

The PPQ is used to measure participants' preference for pazopanib or sunitinib for renal cell carcinoma management and is used to determine a participant's preference for 1 of the 2 drugs given in the 2 double-blind treatment periods. Participants were asked to select 1 of the following: 1. prefer the drug taken as the first treatment; 2. prefer the drug taken as the second treatment; or 3, no preference. Those participants who indicated a preference were asked to select the factors that had an influence on their treatment preference, as well as the most important reason for their preference.

Modified-Intent-to-Treat (mITT) Population (used for the primary analysis): participants who received at least one dose of study treatment from each treatment period and who did not have documented progressive disease (PD) at the end of Treatment Period 1 and completed the patient preference questionnaire.

secondary · POSTED

Change from period (P) BL is computed as participants' (par.) average post-BL fatigue score within each P minus their P-specific BL score. P 1 BL is the P 1 Pre-Dose assessment; P 2 BL is the wash-out assessment. Crossover analyses compared par. average scores on each treatment, adjusting for sequence. FACIT-Fatigue Scale: overall score (0 to 52)=the sum of scores for 13 questions. For each question, par. rated their condition for the past week on a 5-point scale: 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). A high score indicates low fatigue. A negative change from BL represents a worsening of condition.

Safety-Randomized Study Population: participants who received at least one dose of either drug regardless of treatment period. Participants who received mixed treatment within a period were excluded. Only those participants contributing data at the indicated time points were evaluated.

secondary · POSTED

The EQ-5D is a participant-answered questionnaire measuring 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The EQ-5D has two separate components: utility score and thermometer score. The EQ-5D total utility score ranges from 0 (worst health state) to 1 (perfect health state); 1 reflects the best outcome. The thermometer score ranges from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state).

Safety-Randomized Study Population. Participants (par.) who received mixed treatment within a period were excluded. Only those par. contributing data at the indicated time points were evaluated. In some instances, par. may have contributed data for one score, but not the other; thus, the number of par. analyzed reflects the entire population.

secondary · POSTED

For the subset of participants who had a dose modification, time to dose modification was defined as the time from the first dose in each period until the first reduction in dose within a period.

Safety-Randomized Study Population. Only those participants who had a dose modification were evaluated.

Participants are recorded under the treatment they were receiving at the time the dose reduction was reported.

    regimen
    Period 1: Participants received 4 overencapsulated capsules of sunitinib, each containing 12.5 milligrams (mg) of sunitinib, once daily (OD) orally for 4 weeks, followed by 2 weeks off treatment (matching placebo capsules to maintain blind), followed by 50 mg (4 x 12.5 mg) OD orally for 4 weeks. Period 1 was followed by a 2-week wash-out period in which no treatment was given. Period 2: Participants received 4 overencapsulated tablets of pazopanib, each containing 200 mg of pazopanib, OD orally for 10 weeks. Study drugs were taken without food at least one hour before or two hours after a meal. The capsules were swallowed whole and not crushed or broken. The time of day the study drugs were taken remained relatively constant.

    Number of Participants With Preference for Pazopanib Versus Sunitinib as Assessed by the Patient Preference Questionnaire (PPQ)
    measure definition
    The PPQ is used to measure participants' preference for pazopanib or sunitinib for renal cell carcinoma management and is used to determine a participant's preference for 1 of the 2 drugs given in the 2 double-blind treatment periods. Participants were asked to select 1 of the following: 1. prefer the drug taken as the first treatment; 2. prefer the drug taken as the second treatment; or 3, no preference. Those participants who indicated a preference were asked to select the factors that had an influence on their treatment preference, as well as the most important reason for their preference.

    Quality of Life as Assessed by the EuroQoL-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) Thermometer and Utility Scores
    measure definition
    The EQ-5D is a participant-answered questionnaire measuring 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The EQ-5D has two separate components: utility score and thermometer score. The EQ-5D total utility score ranges from 0 (worst health state) to 1 (perfect health state); 1 reflects the best outcome. The thermometer score ranges from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state).

    Safety-Randomized Study Population. Participants (par.) who received mixed treatment within a period were excluded. Only those par. contributing data at the indicated time points were evaluated. In some instances, par. may have contributed data for one score, but not the other; thus, the number of par. analyzed reflects the entire population.
