Irinotecan and Capecitabine in Treating Women With Advanced Breast Cancer
A Phase 1 study testing capecitabine and irinotecan hydrochloride in people with Breast Cancer, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Irinotecan may help capecitabine kill more tumor cells by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Phase I Study of Irinotecan Followed by Capecitabine in Patients With Advanced Breast Carcinoma
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Irinotecan may help capecitabine kill more tumor cells by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of irinotecan and capecitabine in treating women with advanced breast cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of capecitabine and irinotecan in women with advanced breast cancer.
- Determine the degree of accumulation of cells in S-phase in tumor biopsies from patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the dose-limiting toxicity and other major or unusual toxic effects of this regimen in these patients.
- Determine any antitumor activity of this regimen in these patients.
- Determine the pharmacokinetics of this regimen, including the active metabolite SN-38, in these patients.
- Correlate pharmacokinetic parameters of this regimen with the biological changes observed in these patients.
- Determine, preliminarily, the relationship of tumor response with modulation of S-phase in patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients receive irinotecan IV over 1.5 hours on days 1, 8, 22, and 29 and oral capecitabine twice daily on days 1-14 and 23-36. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of irinotecan and capecitabine until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 8-37 patients will be accrued for this study within 18-24 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing capecitabine and irinotecan hydrochloride in people with Breast Cancer, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00083148, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Mar 2011.
