Trial Outcomes & Findings for Compare Safety and Efficacy of BIBF 1120 Versus Sunitinib. (NCT NCT01024920)

An open-label, 2:1 randomised, parallel-arm comparison of nintedanib versus sunitinib in patients with advanced renal cell cancer (RCC) who had not received prior systemic therapy.

All subjects were screened for eligibility prior to participation in the trial. Subjects attended a specialist site which ensured that they (the subjects) strictly met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be allocated to a treatment group if any of the entry criteria were violated.

Full analysis set electrocardiogram (FAS-ECG): All patients in the treated set who were treated with nintedanib (BIBF 1120) and had at least 1 time-matched pair of QT interval (electrocardiogram (ECG) interval from the beginning of the QRS complex (Q, R and S wave) to the end of the T wave) measurements available from baseline and from either Day 1 or Day 15 of Treatment Cycle 1 (first 4-week cycle). Only participants with non-missing outcomes were included in the analysis.

Progression free survival rate at 9 months is the estimated probability of being alive and not having progressive disease at 9 months after randomisation. Progression was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1), at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameters recorded since the treatment started together with an absolute increase in the sum of the longest diameters of at least 5 mm, or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Tumour imaging was made by investigators using Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks after the first administration of the trial medication.

QTcF interval is the QT interval (electrocardiogram (ECG) interval from the beginning of the QRS complex to the end of the T wave) corrected for the effects of heart rate by the Fridericia formula. Baseline QTcF measurement at time t was defined as the QTcF measurement collected 1 day prior to the day of the first administration of nintedanib at time t. Time-matched change from baseline to Day 15 in QTcF at time t was defined as the QTcF measurement following administration of nintedanib on Day 15 obtained at time t minus baseline QTcF measurement at time t. 0 h is 5 min prior to dosing on Day 15. Time-matched change from baseline to Day 15 in QTcF was modelled using a linear mixed-effects model for repeated measures which included 'time' as repeated measures and the time-matched baseline value as a covariate. Adjusted means with corresponding 2-sided 90% confidence intervals at 0 h,1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 5 h, 6 h, 7 h, 10 h and 12 h after dosing of nintedanib on Day 15 of are reported.

Progression free survival (PFS) from randomisation to the occurrence of disease progression (by RECIST Version 1.1) or death, whichever occurred first. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameters recorded since the treatment started together with an absolute increase in the sum of the longest diameters of at least 5 mm, or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Tumour imaging was made by investigators using Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks after the first administration of the trial medication. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the estimates.

Objective response was defined as complete response (CR, the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no new lesions) or partial response (PR, at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of the longest diameters and no new lesions) as determined by RECIST Version 1.1. Numbers of participants with objective response are reported. Tumour imaging was made by investigators using Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks after the first administration of the trial medication.

Duration (months) of objective response was measured from the time of first objective response to the time of disease progression (by RECIST Version 1.1) or death, whichever occurred first. Objective response was defined as complete response (CR, the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no new lesions) or partial response (PR, at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of the longest diameters and no new lesions) as determined by RECIST Version 1.1. Tumour imaging was made by investigators using Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks after the first administration of the trial medication. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the estimates.

Overall survival was calculated as the time (months) from randomisation to death. Patients for whom there was no evidence of death at the time of analysis were censored on the date that they were last known to have been alive. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the estimates.

Time to progression is defined as the time period from randomisation to objective tumour progression. Patients with no progression (by RECIST Version 1.1) were censored at the date of the last evaluable imaging. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameters recorded since the treatment started together with an absolute increase in the sum of the longest diameters of at least 5 mm, or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Tumour imaging was made by investigators using Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks after the first administration of the trial medication. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the estimates.

Time to treatment failure was defined as the time from randomisation to objective tumour progression (by RECIST Version 1.1), death, global deterioration of health status requiring treatment discontinuation, or start of new anticancer treatment, whichever came first. Tumour imaging was made by investigators using Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks after the first administration of the trial medication.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the estimates.
