Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Urinary Bladder Neoplasms
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00625664
Lead Sponsor
Sanofi
Brief Summary

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study comparing the efficacy and safety of XRP9881 plus cisplatin to gemcitabine plus cisplatin in the first line treatment of locally advanced/metastatic urothelial tract or bladder cancer. The primary objective is to compare overall survival. Secondary objectives include comparisons of progression free survival, objective response rate, time to definitive deterioration of performance status, duration of response, time to definitive weight loss, and assessments of overall safety, and pharmacokinetics. Patients are treated until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity and are followed-up until death or the end of the study whichever comes first.
