About this study
Official title: A Phase II Trial of Doxil, Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Triple Negative Previously Untreated Metastatic Breast Cancer
The purpose of this research study is to look at the effectiveness of a combination of doxil, carboplatin and bevacizumab on metastatic breast cancer. The type of breast cancer being studied is negative for a protein called HER2/neu and for estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR). HER2/neu, ER and PR are part of a family of receptors found on both cancer and normal cells. This family of receptors is important for cell growth and is found in many tumor types.This study is being conducted for the following research purposes:· To find out what effects, if any, the study drug has on metastatic breast cancer. For instance, will the study drug cause the tumor(s) to shrink or stop growing?· To test the safety of the study drugs and to see what affects it has. For instance, are there any side effects? If so, what kind of side effects does the study drug cause? How severe are the side effects, and how often do they occur?· To see if the study drugs have any effect on keeping the disease from getting worse.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression Free Survival (PFS) After Treatment With Doxil, Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Patients With ER, PR, HER2neu Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer
Measured: Two Years
Secondary outcomes (4)
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR=CR+PR+SD)
Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI or CT scan: 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 two years
One-year Progression-free Survival
Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as 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.
Measured: one year
Median Overall Survival After Treatment With Doxil, Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Patients With ER, PR, HER2neu Negative
median overall survival
Measured: From date of randomization up to two years
Six-month Survival After Treatment With Doxil, Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Patients With ER, PR, HER2neu Negative
Six-month survival rate
Measured: six months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Doxil, Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in people with Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey at 7 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?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 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 8 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 7 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 8 Feb 2023). 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?
Progression Free Survival (PFS) After Treatment With Doxil, Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Patients With ER, PR, HER2neu Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer (time frame: Two Years). 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 8 Feb 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
