Filter by:This is a single-arm, phase Ib/II study to examine the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of one cycle of Ad-RTS-hIL-12 immunotherapy in women with advanced breast cancer and pre-study SD or PR after completion of a minimum 12 week course of standard first- or second-line chemotherapy. The patient population will include patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer of all subtypes.
PAKT was an investigator-led, placebo-controlled, randomized phase II trial performed in 42 academic medical centers in the United Kindom, South Korea, France, Hungary, Romania, and Georgia. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive paclitaxel plus capivasertib or paclitaxel plus placebo. Stratification was by number of metastatic sites (< 3 v ≥ 3) and interval from the end of prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy (≤ 12 v > 12 months v no prior chemotherapy). Paclitaxel was administered as a once-per-week intravenous infusion of 90 mg/m2 over approximately 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day treatment cycle. Capivasertib 400 mg or placebo was administered orally twice per day on an intermittent weekly dosing schedule, with treatment on days 2 to 5 of weeks 1, 2, and 3 within each 28-day cycle. All treatments were continued until disease progression, development of unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. If paclitaxel treatment was discontinued before disease progression, patients could continue to receive capivasertib or placebo alone. In case of adverse events (AEs), capivasertib or placebo could be reduced to 320 mg twice per day and subsequently to 240 mg twice per day. Capivasertib or placebo could be interrupted for up to 4 weeks for toxicity. Tumor assessments included computed tomography scanning or magnetic resonance imaging of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis at baseline, every 8 weeks during treatment, and at progression. Patients who discontinued treatment for any reason other than progression were required to follow the same schedule of assessments until progression, initiation of another treatment, death, or withdrawal of consent.
Management of leptomeningeal disease (LMD) in patients with metastatic breast cancer is an area of unmet clinical need. High-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) is known to have activity against breast cancer and in contrast to other systemic chemotherapeutics, it penetrates the blood brain barrier, targets areas of poor cerebrospinal fluid flow, may penetrate bulky leptomeningeal disease, and provide treatment to systemic disease burden. While two retrospective studies have suggested activity of HD-MTX in LMD in patients with breast cancer, no prospective data are available to inform its inclusion in treatment regimens. Thus, while HD-MTX is included in the NCCN Guidelines for LMD and while it is used to varying degrees in cancer centers across the nation, this is more representative of the lack of available therapies for LMD as opposed to strong evidence-based data. This phase II, prospective study will evaluate systemic, intravenous HD-MTX in breast cancer patients with leptomeningeal metastasis with or without brain parenchymal metastasis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of novel pan-HER inhibitor, NOV120101 (Poziotinib), in HER2-overexpressed recurrent stage IV breast cancer patients who received at least 2 prior HER2-directed regimens.
In this study, positron emission tomography (PET/CT) imaging will be used to evaluate estrogen receptor (ER) activity in sites of metastatic disease using the investigational radiotracer [18F]fluoroestradiol (FES).
This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, parallel group study designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of fulvestrant followed, at progression, by examestane and everolimus versus examestane and everolimus followed, at progression, by fulvestrant in postmenopausal women with HR+ and HER2- LABC or MBC whose disease has progressed to NSAI in the adjuvant or metastatic setting.
Based on these results it can be envisioned that the majority of endocrine-responsive post-menopausal breast cancer patients will be treated with an AI as adjuvant therapy (front-line, switching or extending) and/or as first-line management of metastatic breast cancer.
The objective of this observatory is to evaluate the effecacy of Eribulin in patients with metastatic breast cancer on a recent prescription period. Part of the data collection will be retrospective and the other part will be prospective for patients started treatment by Eribulin between November 2014 and September 2015. It will allow a better assessment on the safety profile of this drug.
To determine the maximum tolerated dose of a densified regimen of the association of docetaxel (DTX) and epirubicin (EPI), supported by the concomitant administration of hematopoietic growth factors in patients with metastatic breast cancer in first-line, optimizing in each patient the administration schedule using a formal procedure based on mathematical models in order to manage the severity of induced neutropenia. The models used in this project allow: - an optimal administration schedule of the planned total dose per cycle (number of infusions and calculating their rates and durations) - an individualization of the administration schedule from the second cycle (based on observations from the first cycle), and - an assessment of the risk of a dose-limiting toxicity event combining several severe non-hematological toxicities (conditioning the decision for dose escalation). Using formal mathematical models the investigators expect controlling the hematological and non-hematological toxicities in order to realize the full series of six cycles of densified DTX+EPI chemotherapy (2 weeks per cycle) for each patient. For each patient, chemotherapy is considered feasible if it is possible, in the absence of tumor progression, to consider 6 cycles of treatment without observing any serious adverse events and without: - patient death that may be related to the treatments; - decision of the patient to interrupt treatment for physical or psychological tolerance reasons; - decision of the investigator to discontinue treatment, in the absence of disease progression.
This research study is a way of gaining new knowledge about the combination of Taselisib with other drugs in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Taselisib is an investigational drug which works by blocking a protein called PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) that helps cancer cells grow. This drug has been used in laboratory experiments and information from these studies suggests that this drug may help to prevent or slow the growth of cancer cells. The main purpose of this study is to find the appropriate dose of Taselisib to be used with other drugs in further clinical studies. This is an open-label, 3+3 dose-escalation phase Ib study to identify the Maximum Tolerated Dose(s) (MTD) and to identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Taselisib. This study will be conducted in 4 separate arms. (A-D).
