Official title
A Randomized Phase III Trial of Leukine® vs Neupogen® in Patients Receiving Cisplatin and Gemcitabine for Regionally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Cancer
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The main objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Leukine \& Neupogen to decrease the incidence of grade 3 \& 4 neutropenia in the treatment of patients receiving cisplatin \& gemcitabine for urothelial (bladder) cancer. All patients will receive chemotherapy with cisplatin plus gemcitabine in six 21-day cycles. Patients will also receive either Leukine (Arm A) or Neupogen (Arm B). Patient Population: 100 patients will be enrolled (n=100) in this study. Patients cannot have undergone previous chemotherapy. Approximately 50 patients will be enrolled into each treatment arm. Test Product, Dose, Mode of Administration: All patients will receive chemotherapy treatment with cisplatin (70 mg/kg) on Day 1 and gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) on Days 1, 8, \& 15 of each 21-day cycle. Patients will be randomized to receive either Leukine (250 µg/m2) or Neupogen (5 µg/kg) injected under the skin on Days 2-6, 9-13, \& 16-20 of each cycle. Duration of Treatment: Patients will receive a maximum of six 21-day cycles of treatment. The overall trial, including follow-up, is expected to be 3 years in duration.
