Trial in Locally Advanced and Metastatic Adrenocortical Carcinoma Treatment (FIRM-ACT)
United States, Australia, Austria304 participantsStarted 2004-06
Plain-language summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin and mitotane (EDP/M) prolongs survival as compared to streptozotocin and mitotane (Sz/M) in patients with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) whose disease is not amenable to complete surgical resection.
