Official Title: A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Phase 3 Study of Orally Administered PLX3397 in Subjects With Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis or Giant Cell Tumor of the Te
Brief Summary:
This is a Phase 3 clinical study, which aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an investigational drug PLX3397 in the treatment of tumour of pigmented villonodular synovitis or giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath in subjects, for whom surgical removal of the tumour would cause more harm than good. The main purpose of this study is to gather information about the investigational drug PLX3397, which may help to treat these tumours.
The study consists of two parts. In Part 1, eligible study participants will be assigned to receive either PLX3397 or matching placebo for 24 weeks. A number of assessments will be carried out during the course of the study, including physical examinations, blood tests, imaging studies, electrocardiograms, and questionnaires. MRI scans will be used to evaluate the response of the tumour to the treatment which will be independently assessed by central readers blinded to the treatment assignment. Those subjects, whether assigned to PLX3397 or matching placebo, who have completed Part 1 (i.e, complete 24 weeks of dosing and the Week 25 assessments) will be eligible to advance to Part 2, a long-term treatment phase in which all subjects will receive open-label PLX3397
