Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is to estimate the efficacy of the combination consisting of cisplatin/pemetrexed and panitumumab in patients with wild-type KRAS (non-mutated status) in terms of progression-free survival rate at 6 months.;Secondary Objective: - Determination of the tumour response - Duration of response - Overall survival - Adverse effects / toxicity - Quality of life assessment Additionally, genetic analyses of tumor tissue and blood samples are performed to identify predictive markers.;Primary end point(s): Progression-free survival rate after 6 months;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 6 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Determination of the tumour response 2. Duration of response 3. Overall survival 4. Adverse effects / toxicity 5. Quality of life assessment ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. At 12 weeks (end of chemotherapy treatment) 2. At end of Follow-Up (2 years) 3. At end of Follow-Up (2 years) 4. At end of Follow-Up (2 years) 5. At end of Follow-Up (2 years) | — |
