Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Tesetaxel every 3 weeks

Tesetaxel 27 mg/m2 orally on Day 1 in a 21-day cycle

Drug: Tesetaxel
Tesetaxel 27 mg/m2 orally once on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle

Experimental: Tesetaxel weekly

Tesetaxel 15 mg/m2 orally once every 7 days for 3 consecutive weeks on Day 1, Day 8, and Day 15 in a 28-day cycle

Drug: Tesetaxel
Tesetaxel 15 mg/m2 orally once every 7 days for 3 consecutive weeks on Day 1, Day 8, and Day 15 of each 28-day cycle

Active Comparator: Capecitabine

Capecitabine 1250 mg/m2 orally twice daily (equivalent to a total daily dose of 2500 mg/m2) on Day 1 through Day 14 in a 21-day cycle

Drug: Capecitabine

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Response rate [4 months after the date of randomization of the last patient, which is estimated will occur 16 months after the first patient is randomized]

      the percentage of patients with a confirmed complete or partial response, as defined in the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (revised RECIST [Version 1.1])

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Clinical benefit rate [12 months after the date of randomization of the last patient, which is estimated will occur 24 months after the first patient is randomized]

      the percentage of patients with a complete or partial response of any duration or stable disease lasting ≥ 6 months

    2. Progression-free survival [12 months after the date of randomization of the last patient, which is estimated will occur 24 months after the first patient is randomized]

      the period from the date of randomization to the date when disease progression is first documented or when the patient dies within 6 weeks of the last lesion assessment

    3. Progression-free survival rate [6 and 12 months after patients' date of randomization]

      the percentage of patients who are progression free

    4. Adverse events [up to 30 days after patients' last dose of study medication]

      the percentage of patients with adverse events classified by term and body system
