About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a novel neoadjuvant regimen for invasive breast carcinoma by using the MD Anderson residual cancer burden score.To prospectively evaluate the utility of the PET scan to guide the neoadjuvant treatment and the utility of the Oncotype test as a stratifier for treatment decisons in ER+/Her2- patients. To evaluate the clinical anti-tumor activity of neoadjuvant hormonal therapy in ER+/Her2 negative patients. To evaluate the prognostic factors associated associated with pathological response as measured by the residual cancer burden tool.

Read the detailed description

Treatment propose of TEC-NAX for the triple negatives and for the Her2+ cases. For the Er+/Her2- cases, we propose to use the PET scan to guide therapy after the first course of TEC. Those who drop in SUV≤5%, will have their treatment modified by using the Oncotype test. Those Her2 negative patients whose response to the first 4 courses of induction TEC is less than a complete remission, will have their tretment changed to a second line regimen, Navelbine-Avastin-Xeloda(NAX), with the intention of capturing a better response prior to surgery. Those who are Her2+ will initially also receive TEC but subsequent therapy will include Trastuzumab(Herceptin) whether thet respond wellor not to TEC.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Docetaxel, Epirubicin, Cyclophosphamide/Navelbine, Capecitabine, Trastuzumab, BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer

    ER-(Triple Negative and ER-PR+Her-2-):Patients who respond to the first 4 courses of TEC with a Complete Remission will receive 4 more courses of TEC. Patients who respond to the first 4 courses of TEC with a Partial Remission or Stable Disease will then have their treatment changed to the non-cross resistant NAX regimen.Courses will be repeated every 21 days according to blood counts.A total of 4 courses will be given.

  • Docetaxel, Epirubicin, Cyclophosphamide/Navelbine, Capecitabine, Trastuzumab, BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer

    Her-2 positive cases:Patients who respond to 4 courses of TEC with either a partial or complete remission will then receive 4 additional courses of Docetaxel plus Herceptin, and upon completion of the 4th course of DH they will undergo definitive surgery.A total of 4 courses will be given. Courses will be repeated every 21 days according to blood counts. Patients whose response after 4 courses of TEC is either stable disease or progression, will be treated with "NTX".

  • Docetaxel, Epirubicin, Cyclophosphamide/Navelbine, Capecitabine, Trastuzumab, BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer

    ER+ Cases(ER+PR+Her-2- and ER+PR-Her-2-):After the first course of TEC if the SUV of the primary tumor is >5%, treatment will be TEC x 4 courses. If the Oncotype is low, patients will be switched to hormonal therapy x 6 months. If the Oncotype result is intermediate/high, patients will be NAX chemotherapy x 4 courses. If the SUV post course #1 TEC is <5%, subsequent treatment will depend on the Oncotype.If the Oncotype is low, the treatment will be hormonal therapy x 6 months. If the Oncotype is intermediate/high , the treatment will be NAX chemotherapy x 4. Surgery will be performed 6 weeks after the 4th course of NAX chemotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective is to obtain a RCB rate of 0-1 in at least 66%

    The primary objective is to raise the RCB rate of 0-1 to ≥40%. the startegy of using Oncotype test to guide NAC therapy will be considered encouraging for future testing if we are able to achieve this goal.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel, Epirubicin, Cyclophosphamide/Navelbine, Capecitabine, Trastuzumab, Bevacizumab in people with Infiltrating Duct and Lobular Carcinoma In Situ and Invasive Lobular Breast Carcinoma, run by Auxilio Mutuo Cancer Center at 1 site in Puerto Rico.

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 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 2012. 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 Puerto Rico. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Fernando Cabanillas, MD (787-758-2000 ext. 3513, fcabanil@mdanderson.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary objective is to obtain a RCB rate of 0-1 in at least 66% (time frame: 2 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 16 Jul 2012.
