NCT02603432 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

A Study Of Avelumab In Patients With Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Urothelial Cancer (JAVELIN Bladder 100)

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

Overall survival was defined as the time (in months) from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Participants last known to be alive were censored at date of last contact. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method.

The full analysis set included all randomized participants.

→

secondary · POSTED

BICR assessed PFS: Duration from randomization until disease progression (PD) or death. PD as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 was defined for target disease as at least a 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference smallest sum on study (included baseline sum if that was smallest on study). In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters. For non-target disease: PD was defined as unequivocal progression of pre-existing lesions and if overall tumor burden increased sufficiently to merit discontinuation of therapy. Appearance of any new unequivocal malignant lesion was also considered PD. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier. PFS data was censored on date of last adequate tumor assessment for participants with no event (PD or death), who started new anti-cancer therapy prior to an event or with an event after 2 or more missing tumor assessments.

The full analysis set included all randomized participants.

secondary · POSTED

Investigator assessed PFS: Duration from randomization to first documentation of PD or death, whichever occurred first. PD as per RECIST version 1.1 was defined for target disease as at least a 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference smallest sum on study (this included baseline sum if that was smallest on study). In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. For non-target disease: PD was defined as unequivocal progression of pre-existing lesions and if overall tumor burden increased sufficiently to merit discontinuation of therapy. Appearance of any new unequivocal malignant lesion was also considered PD. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier.

secondary · POSTED

BICR assessed objective response according to RECIST version 1.1, was defined as participants with confirmed best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). CR was defined as complete disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, with the exception of nodal disease and sustained for at least 4 weeks. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to less than (\<) 10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum longest dimensions.

The full analysis set included all randomized participants.

Investigator assessed objective response according to RECIST version 1.1, was defined as participants with confirmed best overall response of CR or PR. CR was defined as complete disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, with the exception of nodal disease and sustained for at least 4 weeks. A CR also required normalization of tumor marker levels and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum longest dimensions.

secondary · POSTED

TTR was defined, for participants with an objective response as the time from 'start date' to the first documentation of objective tumor response (CR or PR), which was confirmed subsequently. CR was defined as complete disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, with the exception of nodal disease and sustained for at least 4 weeks. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum longest dimensions.

Change From Baseline in National Comprehensive Cancer Network- Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (NCCN-FACT) Bladder Symptom Index- 18 (FBlSI-18) Score at Day 1 of Cycle 6
measure definition
NCCN-FACT FBlSI-18 is an 18-item participant completed questionnaire, designed to assess impact of cancer therapy on urothelial cancer-related symptoms and quality of life based on numerical point scoring of symptoms/concerns. It included four subscales: Disease related symptoms- physical subscale with 9 items, disease related symptoms- emotional subscale with 2 items, treatment side effects subscale with 5 items and general function/well-being subscale with 2 items. Participants rated their level of symptoms for each item using 5-point scale ranging from 0=not at all to 4=very much. Items that were negatively framed, and the scores were reversed for analysis so that higher scores= good quality of life. Overall score: total of 18 items, ranging from 0=severely symptomatic to 72=asymptomatic. Higher scores= better functioning or lower symptom burden.

Change From Baseline in European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) Overall Health Utility Score at Cycle 6
measure definition
The EQ-5D-5L was a 6-item participant-completed questionnaire designed to assess health status in terms of a single utility score. There were 2 components to the EQ-5D-5L, a Health State Profile which had individuals rate their level of problems (none, slight, moderate, severe, extreme/unable) in 5 areas (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression), and a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in which participant rated their overall health status from 0 (worst imaginable) to 100 (best imaginable). Published UK weights was used to create a single summary utility score. Utility scores range from -0.594 to 1, with low scores representing lower health status.

    Change From Baseline in National Comprehensive Cancer Network- Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (NCCN-FACT) Bladder Symptom Index- 18 (FBlSI-18) Score at Day 1 of Cycle 6
    measure definition
    NCCN-FACT FBlSI-18 is an 18-item participant completed questionnaire, designed to assess impact of cancer therapy on urothelial cancer-related symptoms and quality of life based on numerical point scoring of symptoms/concerns. It included four subscales: Disease related symptoms- physical subscale with 9 items, disease related symptoms- emotional subscale with 2 items, treatment side effects subscale with 5 items and general function/well-being subscale with 2 items. Participants rated their level of symptoms for each item using 5-point scale ranging from 0=not at all to 4=very much. Items that were negatively framed, and the scores were reversed for analysis so that higher scores= good quality of life. Overall score: total of 18 items, ranging from 0=severely symptomatic to 72=asymptomatic. Higher scores= better functioning or lower symptom burden.

There were 2 components to the EQ-5D-5L, a Health State Profile which had individuals rate their level of problems (none, slight, moderate, severe, extreme/unable) in 5 areas (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression), and a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in which participant rated their overall health status from 0 (worst imaginable) to 100 (best imaginable). Published UK weights was used to create a single summary utility score. Utility scores range from -0.594 to 1, with low scores representing lower health status.
