Study summary

A Phase II, Randomized, Multi-Center, Double-Blind, Comparative Global Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Durvalumab in Combination With Olaparib for First-Line Treatment in Platinum-Ineligible Patients With Unresectable Stage IV Urothelial Cancer

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival based on investigator assessments according to RECIST 1.1

    Time frame: Assessments performed at baseline and every 8 weeks from date of randomization until date of objective disease progression or death (by any cause in the absence of progression), assessed up to the data cut-off date (15 Oct 2020), up to a max. of 31 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Number of Participants with Overall Survival (OS), where OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause.

    Time frame: From the date of randomization until the death due to any cause, assessed up to the data cut-off date (15 October 2020), to a maximum of 31 months

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR (per RECIST 1.1 using Investigator assessments) is defined as the number (%) of patients with at least 1 visit response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters

    Time frame: From the date of randomization to the date of progression or the last evaluable assessment in the absence of progression, assessed up to the data cut-off date (15 October 2020), to a maximum of 31 months

  3. Duration of Response (DoR)

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST v1.1) assessed by MRI or CT: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no new lesions; Partial Response (PR): \>= 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of Target Lesions (compared to baseline) and no new lesions. DoR is the time from the date of first documented response until the date of documented progression or death in the absence of disease progression

    Time frame: Tumor assessments every 8 weeks after randomization for the first 48 weeks and then every 12 weeks thereafter until the date of objective disease progression. Assessed up to the data cut-off date (15 October 2020), to a maximum of 31 months
