Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine and vinorelbine, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor killing substances to them without harming normal… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Capecitabine in Combination With Vinorelbine and Trastuzumab for the First- or Second-LineTreatment of HER2+ Metastatic Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine and vinorelbine, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Giving capecitabine and vinorelbine together with trastuzumab may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving capecitabine and vinorelbine together with trastuzumab works in treating patients who have metastatic breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the overall response rate in patients with HER2/neu-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer treated with first- or second-line therapy comprising capecitabine, vinorelbine, and trastuzumab (Herceptin^®).

Secondary

  • Determine the time to disease progression, duration of response, and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the safety profile of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral capecitabine twice daily on days 1-14, vinorelbine IV over 6-10 minutes on days 1 and 8, and trastuzumab (Herceptin^®) IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months until disease progression and then every 6 months for up to 5 years.

Receives: Biological: trastuzumab; Drug: capecitabine; Drug: vinorelbine tartrate

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Confirmed Response Rate

    A confirmed tumor response is defined to be either a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) noted as the objective status on 2 consecutive evaluations at least 6 weeks apart. All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a consent form and initiated study medication will be evaluable for response. The proportion of confirmed tumor responses will be estimated by the number of tumor regressions that meet the RECIST criteria for a confirmed CR or PR divided by the total number of evaluable patients. A 95% confidence interval for the true confirmed response rate will be calculated using the properties of the binomial distribution. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Time to Progression (TTP)

    Time to progression is defined as the time from registration to disease progression. Patients who died without documentation of progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of their death. If a patient starts treatment and fails to return for any evaluations, that patient will be censored for progression of disease at day one post-registration. Otherwise, for patients that do not progress, censoring will occur at the last follow up date. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  2. Duration of Response as Measured by RECIST Criteria

    Duration of response is defined for all eligible patients who have achieved an objective response as the date at which the patient's objective status is first noted to be either a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) to the date progression is documented. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  3. Overall Survival as Assessed by Time

    Overall survival: The overall survival or survival time is defined as the time from registration to death due to any cause. The distribution of overall survival will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing trastuzumab, capecitabine and vinorelbine tartrate in people with Breast Cancer, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology at 147 sites 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 6 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 147 sites 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jan 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Confirmed Response Rate (time frame: Up to 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00093808, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 6 Mar 2017.
