Study design details

Main study objective

To describe patient and disease characteristics of giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) patients prior to initiation of XGEVA

Outcomes

Socio-demographics (age, sex, living condition, education level, employment status), clinical (localization, soft tissue extension, fracture, pulmonary metastasis, for recurrent tumor: number, localization, biopsy, MRI scanner, soft tissue extension, fracture, pulmonary metastasis) and radiological (tumor size) disease characteristics prior initiation of XGEVA, Treatment history and line of treatment at XGEVA initiation.
Proportion of patients undergoing surgery within one year from XGEVA initiation.
Treatment pattern of XGEVA and other treatments targeting GCTB administered over the study period. TTP, PFS, RFS. Pain score and impact on patient’s lives.
Time from BPI-SF score prior XGEVA initiation to the first BPI-SF score deterioration. ADRs and SADRs.

Data analysis plan

All analyses will be done using modified intent to treat principle: all included subjects who have received at least one dose of XGEVA treatment (mITT1).
Categorical outcomes will be summarized by the number and percentage of patients in each category, and the corresponding 95% CI.
Continuous data will be described by mean, standard deviation, median, Q1 and Q3 quartiles and minimum and maximum values.
Time to event endpoints will be analyzed using Kaplan Meier estimation and described using median or rate at specific time point with a 95% CI. Follow-up will be calculated using reverse Kaplan Meier estimation.
All BPI SF analyses will be performed in all included subjects who have received at least one dose of XGEVA and with a BPI SF score at baseline (mITT2).
Longitudinal BPI-SF score will be studied using time to event approach and also using mixed model analysis of variance for repeated measurement or pattern mixture models (in case of missing not at random BPI SF score).
