1.Primary Outcome
Title Progression-free Survival (PFS) Per Independent Radiology Review Committee (IRRC)
Hide Description PFS defined as the time in months from randomization to date of progression. Patients who died without a reported prior progression were considered to have progressed on date of death; those who didn't progress or die were censored on date of last tumor assessment. Median PFS time with 95% CI estimated using the Kaplan Meier product limit method.
Time Frame based on assessments every 6 weeks while on treatment until documented disease progression/unacceptable toxicity

Comments Study required 615 events to achieve 90% power to detect a hazard ratio of 0.77 using a 2-sided α = 0.05 log-rank test. The analysis was a comparison between the 2 treatment arms using a 2-sided α=0.0483 log-rank test (adjusted for an interim analysis using the O'Brien Fleming spending function) to reject the null hypothesis of equality of progression free survival. The analysis was conducted when 639 events (310 in combination:329 in capecitabine) were observed from the 752 randomized patients.

Statistical Analysis Overview Comparison Group Selection Ixabepilone + Capecitabine, Capecitabine
Comments There was a statistically significant difference between groups in change from baseline FBSI score favoring capecitabine. A mean change from baseline of 2.5 was considered a clinically meaningful difference (minimally important difference or MID). On-treatment mean changes in the FBSI did not reach the MID in either group.
