简要总结
This phase III trial compares the effect of wide local excision (WLE) alone to usual care with WLE plus sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy for the treatment of older adults with early-stage melanoma. A WLE is a surgical procedure performed to cut out an abnormal lesion and some surrounding normal tissue. This is sometimes followed by a SLN biopsy, in which lymph nodes that tumor cells could spread to are removed as well. Using WLE alone may be just as effective as usual care in treating older adults with early-stage melanoma.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate and compare 2-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates in both study arms.
II. To evaluate patient-reported outcomes (PRO) at 2 years (as measured by the change in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Melanoma [FACT-M] total score) in both study arms.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate and compare RFS, overall survival (OS), melanoma-specific survival (MSS), safety and PRO (at various endpoints).

结局指标
主要结局
Recurrence free survival (RFS) rate
时间窗: From randomization to recurrence of disease or death from any cause, assessed at 2 years
Will evaluate RFS rate. Will compare the co-primary endpoints in a hierarchical manner starting with RFS rate. The 2-year RFS rate will be estimated from the Kaplan-Meier curve and compared between treatment arms via two sample binomial test, and the 95% confidence interval (CI) will be provided. Will be measured on the intention-to-treat patient cohort. Patients that have not had an event reported at analysis will be censored at their date of last follow-up. Patients who drop out or are lost to follow up before 2 years will be censored.
Patient reported outcome (PRO)
时间窗: Baseline to 2 years
Will compare the co-primary endpoints in a hierarchical manner starting with RFS rate. If RFS rate in non-inferior (wide local incision \[WLE\] is non-inferior to WLE plus sentinel lymph node biopsy) will proceed to evaluate PRO as a co-primary endpoint. Will measure patients quality of life by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Melanoma (FACT-M) score. The FACT-M score change will be calculated by FACT-M score at 2 years minus the FACT-M score at baseline. Descriptive analyses will be conducted for baseline scores, 2-year scores and the change. The change scores will be compared between the two study arms with two sample t test. 95% CI will be provided. If RFS rate is inferior will proceed to evaluate PRO as an exploratory endpoint.
Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) Component
时间窗: (FACT-M) baseline 4 months 8 months 12 months 16 months 20 months 24 months
The patient reported outcomes (PRO) in this study include a Geriatric Assessment (GA) and the FACT-M Quality of Life (QOL). The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines advocate geriatric assessment (GA) for older patients with cancer to identify health status issues that increase the risk of adverse outcomes. A GA evaluates comorbidity, functional status, physical performance, cognitive ability, psychological status, medications and social support with standardized tools that predict morbidity and mortality in community-dwelling vulnerable older adults. Benefits of GA in community-dwelling vulnerable older adults include prevention of geriatric syndromes, recognition of cognitive deficits, addressing geriatric abnormalities detected by the assessment to prevent hospitalizations and nursing home admissions, and overall improvement of quality of life.
