Glossary entry (derived from question below)
français term or phrase:
étude pivot
anglais translation:
pivotal study
français term
étude pivot
This is not a PIVOT (Prostate cancer Intervention versus Observation Trial), as the subject is metastatic colorectal cancer.
Sample sentence:
"The document presents the results of the [étude pivot] that evaluated [drug name] + best supportive care versus best supportive care for EGFR-expressing metastatic colorectal cancer after failure of protocols including oxaliplatin and irinotecan"
There are no other types of trial mentioned (e.g. étude pivot vs. étude complémentaire), to help make sense of the use of this adjective.
All informed suggestions most welcome ;)

Non-PRO (1): Harald Moelzer (medical-translator)
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Welcome, Cath.
| Thanks, Zareh, the PubMed definition ("Investigation yielding the no-observed-adverse-effect-level that is used by the USEPA as the basis of the reference dose") certainly looks promising :) |
