About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of AZD0530 in Hormone Receptor-Negative, Metastatic or Unresectable, Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

This phase II trial is studying saracatinib to see how well it works in treating patients with metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Saracatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the disease control rate of AZD0530 (saracatinib) in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the efficacy of AZD0530 in terms of overall response rate (complete and partial response) and progression free survival.

II. To describe the toxicity profile of AZD0530 in this patient population. III. To prospectively explore changes in circulating tumor cells from pre-treatment levels in patients receiving AZD0530.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive saracatinib orally (PO) on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 4 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    DCR defined as complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) > 24 weeks. Simon's two-stage optimal design was used to estimate the DCR of AZD0530 after 24 weeks of therapy since this design allowed for early termination of the study. Response and progression was evaluated in this study using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Target lesions: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started

    Measured: After 24 weeks of study therapy

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall Response Rate (CR and PR)

    Overall Response rate is defined as the sum of the complete response rate and partial response rate. Response and progression was evaluated in this study using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Target lesions: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started

    Measured: From start of treatment to 24 weeks after completion of study treatment

  2. Median Time to Treatment Failure

    Measured: From the start of treatment up to 4 weeks after completion of study treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing saracatinib and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Estrogen Receptor-negative Breast Cancer and Male Breast Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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?

The sponsor lists 52 inclusion and 0 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 30 Apr 2014. 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 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 20 Jan 2014). 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?

Disease Control Rate (DCR) (time frame: After 24 weeks of study therapy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 30 Apr 2014.
