About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase II Study to Investigate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of ZK 230211 (25 mg vs. 100 mg) as Second-line Endocrine Therapy for Postmenopausal Women With Hormone Receptor-positive Metastatic Breast Cancer

Randomized phase II study to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ZK 230211 (100 mg vs. 25 mg) as second-line endocrine therapy for postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer.Once the cancer has spread beyond the lymph nodes to areas such as e.g. the skin, soft tissues, lung, and liver it is called metastatic breast cancer. Patients who have been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer that has progressed since their previous cancer treatment and that cannot be removed completely by surgery are eligible to be treated within this trial.Treatment with a new drug called Progesterone Receptor Antagonist ZK 230211 (ZK PRA) targets the progesterone receptor which may be expressed on breast cancer tumour cells. Therefore only patients with this progesterone receptor on their tumour cells can be included in this study.Progesterone receptor antagonists (including onapristone) have already shown efficacy in postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer (Klijn et al. 2000). This phase II study investigates the efficacy (proof of concept), safety and tolerability of ZK PRA at two dose levels (25 mg and 100 mg) before initiating pivotal phase III trials.

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. To evaluate safety and tolerability

    Measured: ongoing thoughout the trial

  2. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of ZK PRA

    Measured: baseline, month1,2,6

  3. To evaluate the effect of ZK PRA on quality of life (QoL)

    Measured: baseline, month 1,2,3,4,5,6

  4. To perform exploratory analysis of biomarkers

    Measured: baseline, month 1, 3

  5. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: end of study

  6. Objective response rate (ORR) / Duration of response - in the subset of patients with measurable disease

    Measured: end of study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lonaprisan (ZK 230211, BAY86-5044) in people with Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by Bayer at 28 sites in 10 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 21 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. 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 10 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 28 sites in France, Germany, Austria, Poland, Sweden and 5 more countries. 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?

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate efficacy (clinical benefit) of two doses of ZK PRA (25 mg and 100 mg) when administered once daily p.o. (time frame: month 3, month 6). 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 NCT00555919, 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 10 Oct 2014.
