About this study

Official title: Randomized Multicenter Phase II Study of Sequential Versus Simultaneous Use of Vinorelbine and Capecitabine as First Line Chemotherapy for Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of sequential use of vinorelbine and capecitabine as first line therapy in patients with MBC.

Read the detailed description

The administration of vinorelbine and capecitabine had been implied to be quite useful in metastatic breast cancer. This study was designed to explore whether sequential and simultaneous use of vinorelbine and capecitabine have similar efficacy and whether the sequential way has better tolerability.

What is being measured

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

  1. PFS(progression-free survival,defined as the time period between randomization and disease progress or death) and TTF (time to treatment failure, defined as all discontinuations for any cause)

    PFS was assessed every two cycles (3 weeks per cycle)and during the follow up time, by serum tumor markers, physical examination and image examination, until disease progression event occurs. If a patient has the sign or hint of disease progression, then the lab examination, physical examination or image examination could be taken at any time.

    Measured: Every two cycles (3 weeks per cycle) and during the follow up time, until disease progression event occurs.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety, QOL(quality of life)

    Safety and QOL were assessed every cycle(3 weeks per cycle) and during the follow up time, until 28 days after the last cycle.

    Measured: Safety and QOL were assessed every cycle and during the follow up time, until 28 days after the last cycle.

  2. TTP(time to progression) and OS (overall survival)

    TTP and OS were assessed every cycle(3 weeks per cycle) and during the follow up time, until the event occurs.

    Measured: TTP and OS were assessed every cycle and during the follow up time, until the event occurs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vinorelbine and Capecitabine in people with Breast Cancer and Metastasis, Neoplasm, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 12 inclusion and 7 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 7 Jul 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 China. 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?

PFS(progression-free survival,defined as the time period between randomization and disease progress or death) and TTF (time to treatment failure, defined as all discontinuations for any cause) (time frame: Every two cycles (3 weeks per cycle) and during the follow up time, until disease progression event occurs.). 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 7 Jul 2011.
