Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The following end-points will be evaluated in this study: Time to progression from primary diagnosis (TTP). Progression-free survival (PFS). Overall survival (OS). This project is a multi-centre, prospective cohort study that will aim to enrol 800 patients at participating sites. It involves collection of data into the PURPLE registry, linkage and analysis of data via a WEHI developed database. Comprehensive clinicopathological data will be collected, start and stop dates for all systemic therapies will be captured as well as treatment response data for each therapy used, the reason for any change in treatment, and the date of disease progression. Data related to any resection of primary and or metastatic disease will be collected.

Statistical methods / analysis
It is anticipated that a sample size of 800 is sufficient to achieve the aim of this study, and to achieve preliminary insights into variation in practice and outcomes across sites. In order to compare clinical outcomes across different subgroups, Kaplan-Meier survival curves will be defined from survival data and constructed using SAS (registered trademark) software. The stratified log rank test will be used to compare survival curves between different groups of participants. P-values of 0.05 will be considered significant. Due to the non-randomised nature of such comparisons propensity score techniques will be used to balance comparison groups according to baseline factors.

Data sharing statement
Will individual participant data (IPD) for this trial be available (including data dictionaries)?
No
No/undecided IPD sharing reason/comment
Only aggregated data will be shared where possible.

If participating sites want access to their own patient’s data or if patient level data is requested, only the PURPLE unique identifier with be provided in a coded data set. This will be shared only if the data requested aligns with the objectives of the study.

If other centres request access to data further than their own institutional contributions any patient level data will have all identifiers removed and the PURPLE unique identifier will not be provided. Rather, a project specific identification number will be used. This process minimises the re-identification risk while maintaining the ability of coordinating centre study personnel to verify patient level data and provide future updates.

If industry reports are ever generated these will be limited to de-identified, aggregate data only. This ensures no patient level or treatment location identifiable information is provided in these reports.
