Revision as of 15:49, 9 December 2017

The purpose of this page is to capture information about complex comparisons that is not easily conveyed on the treatment regimen pages. Many complex multipart RCTs are of the "Y-shaped" format "A followed by B1 versus B2" or "A1 versus A2 followed by B" and this can be captured on the treatment regimen pages. This page will convey information on more complicated designs, such as "A followed by B versus B followed by A" or "A followed by B versus C followed by D".


Breast cancer

BCIRG-005

Arm 1, sequential

Arm 2, concurrent

Comparative efficacy

Schedule Efficacy
Sequential (AC, then T) Seems not superior
Concurrent (TAC) Seems not superior

BCIRG 006

Arm 1, sequential without trastuzumab

Arm 2, sequential with trastuzumab

Arm 3, concurrent with trastuzumab

Comparative efficacy

  • Analyzed using a step-down design

Comparison 1

Trastuzumab-containing regimens vs. AC, then T Efficacy
AC, then TH Superior OS
TCH Seems to have superior OS

Comparison 2

Trastuzumab-containing regimens Efficacy
AC, then TH Seems not superior
TCH Seems not superior

CALGB 9741

Note: what is referred to in this study as concurrent is in fact the same regimen that is referred to as sequential in other studies.

Arm 1, sequential

  • A, then T, then C

Arm 2, dose-dense sequential

  • ddA, then ddT, then ddC

Arm 3, "concurrent"

Arm 4, dose-dense "concurrent"

Comparative efficacy

  • Analyzed using a 2 x 2 factorial design

Comparison 1

Dose density Efficacy
Dose-dense (q2wk) Seems to have superior OS
Standard (q3wk) Seems to have inferior OS

Comparison 2

Schedule Efficacy
Concurrent Seems not superior
Sequential Seems not superior
