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The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.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
Treatment: Drugs - LDE225

Experimental: LDE225 200 mg - The study was double blinded and enrolled at least 50 evaluable patients in the 200 mg LDE225 arm. The efficacy and safety of LDE225 was analyzed separately in each group. Patients who met all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were treated with 200 mg LDE225 daily until disease progression, occurrence of intolerable toxicity, start of another anticancer treatment or withdrawal of consent.

Experimental: LDE225 800 mg - The study was double blinded and enrolled at least 100 evaluable patients in the 800 mg LDE225 arm. The efficacy and safety of LDE225 was analyzed separately in each group. Patients who met all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were treated with 800 mg LDE225 daily until disease progression, occurrence of intolerable toxicity, start of another anticancer treatment or withdrawal of consent.


Treatment: Drugs: LDE225
LDE225 was administered orally, on a continuous once daily dosing schedule and was supplied as 200 mg hard gelatin capsules in bottles. Every 4 weeks on the day of study visit, patients received a prescription of an adequate drug supply for self-administration at home. The 800 mg dose patients received 4 capsules of LDE225 and 200 mg dose arm patients received 1 LDE225 capsule + 3 placebo capsules.
