Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of Abraxane combined with Gemcitabine in the patients with metastatic breast cancer.
The aim of this study is to increase, by DHA-induced chemosensitization, the activity of anticancer chemotherapy in patients with a metastatic advanced breast cancer, by a nutritional approach with marin-derived PolyUnsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA).
Change of IL-6 and IL-8 level in blood and pleural effusion before and after chemotherapy correlate with the prognosis of the disease
- Lapatinib in combination with capecitabine has been approved for the treatment of women with HER-2-positive advanced breast cancer that have progressed after anthracycline-, taxane-, and trastuzumab-containing therapies. The use of this combination is limited by overlapping toxicity such as diarrhea and cutaneous side effects. - A significant number of patients receive today capecitabine with trastuzumab as first- or second-line treatment. Therefore, other combinations of lapatinib with less toxic cytotoxic agents are needed. - Eribulin mesylate (E7389) is a synthetic analog of Halichondrin B (HalB), a large polyether macrolide isolated from a marine sponge. Eribulin is a mechanistically unique antagonist of microtubule dynamics among tubulin-targeted agents, leading to inhibition of microtubule growth in the absence of effects on microtubule shortening, and formation of non- productive tubulin aggregates. - Eribulin mesylate at a dose of 1.4 mg/m² given on day 1, 8 every 3 weeks has shown better overall survival by 2.5 months compared to treatment of physicians choice in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who were previously treated for 2-5 lines with anthracyclines, taxanes, and capecitabine (EMBRACE study). - The most frequently reported eribulin-related AEs were asthenia/fatigue (65%), alopecia (60%), neutropenia (60%), nausea (44%), anemia (28%), pyrexia (23%), leucopenia (22%), anorexia (21%), constipation (19%), vomiting (18%), and peripheral neuropathy (5.5%; only grade 3). Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 32% of patients, and febrile neutropenia occurred in 5.5% of patients. The frequency of all other grade 3/4 AEs was less than 3%. This toxicity profile does not overlap with that of lapatinib. - There is uncertainty in how far a once every 3 week schedule of eribulin mesylate at a dose of 2.0 mg/m² would be better tolerated. Several phase II studies are currently conducted in various non-breast cancer indications to compare the d1+8 q d21 with a d1 q d21 schedule. - The aim of this randomized phase II study is to compare the efficacy and tolerability of two dose-schedules of eribulin plus lapatinib in HER2-positive breast cancer, pre-treated with trastuzumab in the adjuvant and/or metastatic setting.
This trial is designed to enroll postmenopausal patients with locally advanced or metastatic, HER2- and HR+ breast cancer not amenable to curative treatment by surgery or radiotherapy, and whose disease has progressed on or after prior endocrine therapy. Patients must undergo molecular pre-screening prior to entry.
The proposed phase III randomised trial will compare the efficacy of trastuzumab and paclitaxel with trastuzumab, paclitaxel and lapatinib in first line treatment of HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer. The investigators will also examine potential predictive biomarkers of response to trastuzumab and lapatinib in pre-treatment biopsy samples and serum samples.
The purpose of this study is to collect follow-up safety data from participants in completed abiraterone acetate studies for a maximum duration of 9 years.
The purpose of this study is to compare active immunotherapy (OPT-822/OPT-821) with PBS in combination with low dose cyclophosphamide, in post-treated metastatic breast cancer subjects with stable disease or response to treatment.
This is a Phase 1b/2 study. In Phase 1b portion, subjects will know the treatment they are receiving . Subjects will receive U3-1287 with trastuzumab plus paclitaxel . The phase 1b portion will determine if adding U3-1287 to trastuzumab plus paclitaxel will be safe in subjects with metastatic breast cancer. In phase 2 portion, subjects will be blinded to the treatments they are receiving . Subjects will receive either trastuzumab plus paclitaxel with U3-1287 or trastuzumab plus paclitaxel and placebo.The phase 2 portion will determine if adding U3-1287 to trastuzumab plus paclitaxel will be safe and improve survival in subjects with metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of oral veliparib in combination with TMZ or in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel compared to placebo plus carboplatin and paclitaxel in subjects with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation and locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
