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The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.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

Patients with a UPC ratio <1 or a 24-hour urine protein <1 gram are eligible
18. Requiring therapeutic anticoagulation with warfarin at baseline; patients must be off warfarin or warfarin-derivative anticoagulants for at least 7 days prior to starting study drug; however, therapeutic or prophylactic therapy with low-molecular weight heparin is allowed
19. Not recovered below National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) grade 1 or baseline from AEs due to previous therapy (patient with = Grade 2 neuropathy or alopecia may be eligible)
20. Treatment with systemic chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, immunotherapy or biologic therapy within 2 weeks prior to the baseline visit
21. Undergone major surgery requiring general anaesthesia or a respiratory assistance device within 4 weeks prior to the baseline visit (within 2 weeks for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery [VATS] or open-and-closed [ONC] surgery)

28. Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years (i.e., with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered a form of systemic treatment and is allowed
29. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. No HIV testing is required unless mandated by local health authority
30. Known active hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. No testing for hepatitis B and hepatitis C is required unless mandated by local health authority
31. Have received a live vaccine within 30 days prior to enrollment. Seasonal flu vaccines that do not contain live virus are permitted
