Registration Number
NCT03315260
Lead Sponsor
Bayer
Brief Summary

This study aims to answer the research question: Are Japanese bone metastatic CRPC patients satisfied with their Ra-223 treatment, and what factors drive such satisfaction? It also aims to determine patient anxiety regarding prostate cancer while on treatment with Ra-223, and assess the effect on quality of life.

Detailed Description

This is a local, Japanese, prospective, longitudinal, observational, company-sponsored, multi-center, single arm study that will describe treatment satisfaction with Ra-223 in 150 bone metastatic CRPC patients on 1st to 3rd line CRPC therapy. All outcomes will be obtained using PRO questionnaires at 4 time points: before treatment, during treatment, and at 1-month after the last treatment cycle.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in patient satisfaction with treatment using the Cancer Therapy Satisfaction Questionnaire (CTSQ)From baseline to 7 months

The CTSQ is a 16-item self-administered questionnaire measuring 3 domains related to patients' satisfaction with cancer therapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in the total scores of the CTSQ domainsFrom baseline to 7 months
Differences in change in treatment satisfaction (measured by CTSQ) between potential subgroupsFrom baseline to 7 months

Potential subgroups will be identified depending on the number of patients available for subgrouping.

Differences in change in prostate cancer anxiety (measured by MAX-PC) between potential subgroupsFrom baseline to 7 months

Potential subgroups will be identified depending on the number of patients available for subgrouping.

Differences in change in bone pain (measured by FACT-BP) between potential subgroupsFrom baseline to 7 months

Potential subgroups will be identified depending on the number of patients available for subgrouping.

Change in patient anxiety with prostate cancer using the Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer (MAX-PC)From baseline to 7 months

Changes in the MAX-PC scores will be analyzed as full scores (no sub-domains).

Change in bone-related symptoms using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Quality of Life Measurement in Patients with Bone Pain (FACT-BP)From baseline to 7 months

Change in FACT-BP scores will be analyzed as full scores (no subdomains).
