About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Eribulin Mesylate Administered Biweekly (Q2W) for Subjects With Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer

This is a Phase 2, open-label, single arm, multicenter, 2-stage study of eribulin mesylate administered biweekly at 1.4 mg/m2 intravenously for the treatment of participants with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer previously treated with 2 to 5 chemotherapy regimens.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 2, open-label, single arm, multicenter, 2-stage study of eribulin mesylate administered biweekly at 1.4 mg/m2 intravenously for the treatment of participants with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer previously treated with 2 to 5 chemotherapy regimens. The study will be conducted in 3 Phases: a Pretreatment Phase (screening visit), a Treatment Phase (starting with Cycle 1 Day 1), and a Posttreatment Phase (End of treatment visit and survival follow up). Participants may remain on study drug as long as they demonstrate clinical benefit or until intercurrent illness, unacceptable toxicity, or disease progression occurs, until the participant withdraws consent, or death.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) by Investigator Assessment

    ORR was defined as the percentage of participants who had best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) measured by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) 1.1. CR defined as disappearance of all target lesions (a short diameter is less than [<] 10 millimeter [mm] if it exists in a lymph node). PR defined as at least 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the long diameter (LD) of all target lesions, as compared with Baseline summed LD.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug until intercurrent illness, unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or until the participant withdrew consent (approximately up to 2.3 years)

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR) by Investigator Assessment

    DCR was defined as the percentage of participants who had BOR of CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) measured by RECIST 1.1. CR defined as disappearance of all target lesions (a short diameter is <10 mm if it exists in a lymph node). PR defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of all target lesions, as compared with Baseline summed LD. SD defined as reduction in tumor volume of less than 50% or an increase in the volume of 1 or more measurable lesions of less than 25% without the appearance of any new lesions which was neither tumor shrinkage corresponding to PR nor tumor expansion corresponding to disease progression. SD must be achieved at greater than equal to (>=) 7 weeks after the first eribulin administration to be considered BOR.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug until intercurrent illness, unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or until the participant withdrew consent (approximately up to 2.3 years)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) by Investigator Assessment

    PFS was defined as the time from date of first dose of study drug to the date of disease progression or death, whichever occurred first.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug until intercurrent illness, unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or until the participant withdrew consent (approximately up to 2.3 years)

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from date of first dose of study drug until date of death from any cause.

    Measured: From date of first dose of study drug administration until date of death from any cause (approximately up to 2.3 years)

  3. Feasibility Rate

    Feasibility rate is defined as the percentage of participants completing the first 2 and 4 cycles (1 cycle = 28 days) of eribulin mesylate treatment (4 and 8 doses) without requiring dose delay greater than (>) 5 days or reduction due to adverse event (AE).

    Measured: Cycle 2 Day 28 and Cycle 4 Day 28 ( cycle length=28 days)

  4. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Measured: From first dose of study drug (Baseline) up to 30 days after last dose of study drug (approximately up to 2.3 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Eribulin Mesylate in people with Breast Cancer, run by Eisai Inc. at 12 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 13 inclusion and 18 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 15 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 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 15 Nov 2018). 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?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) by Investigator Assessment (time frame: From first dose of study drug until intercurrent illness, unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or until the participant withdrew consent (approximately up to 2.3 years)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Nov 2018.
