Phase III Randomized, Placebo Controlled Study of Sorafenib in Repeated Cycles of 21 Days in Combination With Paclitaxel/Carboplatin Chemotherapy in Subjects With Unresectable Stage III or Stage IV Melanoma.

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Progression Free Survival (PFS)

Outcome Description:

PFS was calculated as the time (days) from date of randomization to date of first observed DP (per modified Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors [RECIST] or clinical judgment, whichever was earlier: CR, PR, stable disease, progressive disease) or death due to any cause, if death occurred before progression was documented. The actual date of tumor assessments was used for this calculation. PFS for subjects without progression or death was censored at the last date of tumor evaluation. PFS for subjects who had no tumor assessments after baseline and did not die was censored at 1 day.

Outcome Time Frame:

Time from randomization to documented tumor progression or death (median time of 124 days)

Safety Issue:

No
