What was measured

PFS at 4 months in Arm A and Arm B will each be compared with a 4-month historical control rate of 21.4%. The historical data appears in two publications, an ASCO abstract: Abidoye, ASCO Annual Meeting 2006: 5568 and de Souza, Davis, et al, Clin Cancer Res 2012; 18(8):2336-2343.

Analysis population: Note: Each arm is separately compared to an historical rate of 21.4%, based on a one-sided test at the 0.05 significant level. Since the 90% CIs each exclude 21.4%, the 4-month PFS rate in both arms exceeds the fixed historical control rate.

Groups in this outcome

Arm A (Cetuximab and Temsirolimus)

Patients receive temsirolimus IV over 30-60 minutes and cetuximab IV over 1-2 hours once weekly. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Arm B (Temsirolimus)

Patients receive temsirolimus as in Arm A. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with progressive disease may cross over to Arm A.

Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.
