Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Compare the Overall Survival (OS) of Patients Treated With AEZS-108 to the OS of Patients Treated With Doxorubicin.
From randomization to death from any cause. During ongoing treatment: response evaluation every 3 cycles. For patients gone of treatment: re-assessment every 12 weeks.

Overall survival was defined as the elapsed time from randomization to death from any cause. For surviving patients, follow-up was to be censored at the date of last contact. The final analysis, which was event-based, was conducted after approximately 384 randomized patients had died. A log-rank test with an overall two sided Type I Error rate of 0.05 after taking the interim analyses into account was used to compare OS between the two treatment arms via a SAS (Statistical Analysis System) LIFETEST procedure. Kaplan Meier estimates were used to calculate median OS and the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the median OS. The proportion of patients alive at 6 and 12 months (from randomization date) and the 95% CIs for these estimated proportions were calculated.

Frequently asked questions about AEZS-108/ zoptarelin doxorubicin

What is AEZS-108 used for?

AEZS-108 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer. It is a targeted therapy that has been evaluated in clinical trials for these gynecological tumors. The drug is still in clinical development and is not approved by the FDA.

How does AEZS-108 work?

AEZS-108 targets LHRH receptors, which are found on certain gynecological tumors. By binding to these receptors, the drug is designed to deliver its anticancer effect specifically to cancer cells that express LHRH receptors. This targeted approach is being studied in patients with LHRH receptor positive tumors.

Who is developing AEZS-108?

AEZS-108 is being developed by COSCIENS Biopharma Inc., a biopharmaceutical company. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in patients with gynecological cancers. COSCIENS Biopharma Inc. is publicly traded under the ticker symbol CSCI.

What phase is AEZS-108 in?

AEZS-108 has completed a Phase 2 clinical trial and a Phase 3 clinical trial. The Phase 2 trial evaluated the drug in women with LHRH receptor positive gynecological tumors, while the Phase 3 trial studied it as a second-line therapy for endometrial cancer. The drug is investigational and not yet approved.

What clinical trials is AEZS-108 in?

AEZS-108 has been studied in two completed clinical trials. The first, NCT00569257, was a Phase 2 trial in women with LHRH receptor positive ovarian and endometrial cancer. The second, NCT01767155, was a Phase 3 trial of zoptarelin doxorubicin (AEZS-108) as second-line therapy for endometrial cancer, enrolling 511 patients.

Is AEZS-108 the same as zoptarelin doxorubicin?

Yes, AEZS-108 is also known as zoptarelin doxorubicin. The Phase 3 clinical trial for endometrial cancer used the name zoptarelin doxorubicin (AEZS-108) to refer to the same drug. Both names refer to the same investigational compound being developed by COSCIENS Biopharma Inc.
