Group Intervention Description Sagopilone and cisplatin Sagopilone (BAY86-5302, ZK 219477) The study drug sagopilone was administered in combination with a fixed dose of cisplatin Sagopilone and cisplatin Cisplatin The study drug sagopilone was administered in combination with a fixed dose of cisplatin
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Phase 1: Safety measure to establish the MTD or RPDII dose of Sagopilone used in combination with cisplatin Phase 1: Baseline up to 3 month of treatment Phase 2: Efficacy measure Phase 2: every 6 weeks after start of treatment
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Phase 2: PFS every 6 weeks after start of treatment Progression free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from date of treatment assignment to the first observation of disease progression or death of any cause or to the last date of a definite assessment (not status unknown), if the patient was progression-free until that assessment
Phase 2: TTP every 6 weeks after start of treatment Time to tumor progression (TTP) is defined as the time from the date of treatment assignment to the first observation of disease progression or to the last date of a definite assessment (not status unknown), if the patient is progression-free until that assessment.
Phase 1: PK of Sagopilone + Cisplatin Upto 336 h after the beginning of the sagopilone infusion and upto 20 h 45 min after the beginning of the cisplatin infusion Phase 2: OS every 3 months after start of treatment Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from date of treatment assignment until death from any cause or until the last date the patient is known to be alive
Phase 2: Duration of CR or PR every 6 weeks after start of treatment Duration of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as 'overall response', defined as time between first date that the measurement criteria for CR or PR as 'overall response' are met and first date that recurrence or overall response of (progressive disease) PD is documented.
