mechlorethamine and Sensitivity and Specificity

mechlorethamine has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 10 studies

nitrogen mustard : Compounds having two beta-haloalkyl groups bound to a nitrogen atom, as in (X-CH2-CH2)2NR.

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

5-year Overall Survival

Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death or last known alive. The 5-year survival rate is the probability a patient survives 5 years. (NCT00003389)
Timeframe: Assessed every 2 months if patient is < 1 year from study entry, every 3 months for the second year, every 4 months for the third year, every 6 months for years 4 and 5, and yearly for 5 years

Failure-free Survival at 5 Years

"Failure-free survival is defined as the time from randomization to the earlier of progression/relapse or death. The 5-year failure-free survival is the probability a patient is failure-free and survives 5 years.~Progression is defined as an increase in size of 25% of the sum of the products of the pretreatment measurements or appearance of new lesions. Significant enlargement of the liver or spleen is evidence of progression. A significant increase in size is defined as > 2.0 cm in distance between costal margin and the inferior margin of either organ.~Relapse is defined as the re-appearance of any clinical evidence of Hodgkin's disease in a patient who has had a complete response. Relapse for partial responders is defined as progressive disease relative to disease status during the partial remission." (NCT00003389)
Timeframe: Assessed every 2 months if patient is < 1 year from study entry, every 3 months for the second year, every 4 months for the third year, every 6 months for years 4 and 5

Incidence of Second Cancers

Number of patients who developed second primary cancers (NCT00003389)
Timeframe: Assessed every 2 months if patient is < 1 year from study entry, every 3 months for the second year, every 4 months for the third year, every 6 months for years 4 and 5, and yearly for 5 years
