Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective is to determine whether BIBW 2992 and vinorelbine i.v. prolongs progression-free survival (PFS) in comparison to trastuzumab and vinorelbine i.v.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are: - further evaluation of efficacy (best RECIST assessment, overall survival, tumour shrinkage), - health status (ECOG, weight) - quality of life - safety (adverse events, laboratory) - pharmacokinetics;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of this study is progression-free survival, defined as the time from the date of randomisation to the date of disease progression, or to the date of death if a patient died earlier. The analysis will be based upon the evaluation of tumour imaging as reviewed by an independent central unit, blinded to treatment assignments. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary analysis of PFS will be conducted when at least 484 patients have progressed (based on central review) or died.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Best RECIST assessment - Overall survival;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The first analysis will be performed at same timepoint than primary analysis A second overall survival analysis should be performed approximately 42 months after the start of recruitment.
