NCT02853305 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Study of Pembrolizumab With or Without Platinum-based Combination Chemotherapy Versus Chemotherapy Alone in Urothelial Carcinoma (MK-3475-361/KEYNOTE-361)

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

PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) per RECIST 1.1 based on BICR, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Per RECIST 1.1, PD was defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum had to demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered PD. The sponsor allowed a maximum of 10 target lesions in total and 5 per organ on this study. Per protocol, PFS in the pembro combo arm was compared to the chemo arm as a pre-specified primary analysis of the Intent-To-Treat (ITT) population (all randomized participants). PFS is reported here for all participants in the pembro combo arm and chemo arm. Per protocol, PFS was compared separately between all participants of the pembro arm and chemo arm and is presented later in the record.

All participants in the ITT population randomized to the pembro combo arm and chemo arm were included in the analysis. Per protocol, the pembro arm was compared to the chemo arm separately and not included in this analysis.

OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Participants without documented death at the time of the final analysis were censored at the date of the last follow-up. Per protocol, OS in the pembro combo arm was compared to the chemo arm as a pre-specified primary analysis of the ITT population (all randomized participants). OS is reported here for all participants in the pembro combo arm and chemo arm.

OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Participants without documented death at the time of the final analysis were censored at the date of the last follow-up. Per protocol, OS in the CPS ≥10% subset of the pembro arm was compared to OS in the CPS ≥10% subset of the chemo arm for this endpoint as a pre-specified primary analysis of the ITT population. OS is reported here for all participants in the pembro arm and chemo arm who were PD-L1 CPS ≥10%. Per protocol, OS in the CPS ≥10% subset of the pembro combo arm was not a pre-specified analysis of the ITT population and is not presented.

All participants in the ITT population randomized to the pembro arm and chemo arm who were PD-L1 CPS ≥10% were included in the analysis. Per protocol, the pembro combo arm was not pre-specified as part of this analysis and is not included.

secondary · POSTED

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which did not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition that was temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor's product was also an AE. The number of participants that experienced at least one AE was reported for each treatment arm.

All randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of trial treatment were analyzed.

measure definition
The EORTC-QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire developed to assess the quality of life of cancer patients. Participant responses to the Global Health Status (GHS) question "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?" (Item 29) and the Quality of Life (QoL) question "How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?" (Item 30) were scored on a 7-point scale (1=Very Poor to 7=Excellent). Using linear transformation, raw scores were standardized so that scores ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating a better overall outcome. Per protocol, change from baseline to Week 18 in the GHS/QoL combined score was compared between all participants of the pembro combo arm and the chemo arm as a pre-specified secondary analysis. As specified by the protocol, change from baseline to Week 18 in the GHS/QoL combined score was compared separately between all participants of the pembro arm and chemo arm and is presented later in the record.

TTD in GHS/QoL was defined as the time from first dose date to the first onset of a ≥10 point decrease from baseline in GHS/QoL combined score without confirmation. Per protocol, TTD in GHS/QoL combined score was compared between the pembro combo arm and chemo arm.

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which did not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition that was temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor's product was also an AE.

    measure definition
    The EORTC-QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire developed to assess the quality of life of cancer patients. Participant responses to the Global Health Status (GHS) question "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?" (Item 29) and the Quality of Life (QoL) question "How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?" (Item 30) were scored on a 7-point scale (1=Very Poor to 7=Excellent). Using linear transformation, raw scores were standardized so that scores ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating a better overall outcome. Per protocol, change from baseline to Week 18 in the GHS/QoL combined score was compared between all participants of the pembro combo arm and the chemo arm as a pre-specified secondary analysis. As specified by the protocol, change from baseline to Week 18 in the GHS/QoL combined score was compared separately between all participants of the pembro arm and chemo arm and is presented later in the record.

    Pembro Combo vs Chemo: Time to Deterioration (TTD) in the EORTC-QLQ-C30 GHS/QoL (Items 29 and 30) Combined Score
    measure definition
    EORTC-QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire developed to assess the QoL of cancer patients. Participant responses to the GHS question "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?" (Item 29) and the QoL question "How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?" (Item 30) were scored on a 7-point scale (1=Very Poor to 7=Excellent). Raw scores were standardized by linear transformation so that scores ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating a better overall outcome. TTD in GHS/QoL was defined as the time from first dose date to the first onset of a ≥10 point decrease from baseline in GHS/QoL combined score without confirmation. Per protocol, TTD in GHS/QoL combined score was compared between the pembro combo arm and chemo arm. TTD in GHS/QoL combined score was compared separately between the pembro arm and chemo arm and is presented later in the record.

    Pembro vs Chemo: TTD in the EORTC-QLQ-C30 GHS/QoL (Items 29 and 30) Combined Score
    measure definition
    EORTC-QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire developed to assess the QoL of cancer patients. Participant responses to the GHS question "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?" (Item 29) and the QoL question "How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?" (Item 30) were scored on a 7-point scale (1=Very Poor to 7=Excellent). Raw scores were standardized by linear transformation so that scores ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating a better overall outcome. TTD in GHS/QoL was defined as the time from first dose date to the first onset of a ≥10 point decrease from baseline in GHS/QoL combined score without confirmation. Per protocol, TTD in GHS/QoL combined score was compared between the pembro arm and chemo arm. TTD in GHS/QoL combined score was compared separately between the pembro combo arm and chemo arm and is presented earlier in the record.
