Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult patients with a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of MBC who have failed first-line treatment for metastatic disease and for whom standard, anthracycline containing therapy is not indicated

Who may be able to join

  • Patients eligible for inclusion in this study have to meet all of the following criteria:
  • Adult patients (18 years and older);
  • Patients with a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of MBC who have failed first-line treatment for metastatic disease and for whom standard, anthracycline containing therapy is not indicated;
  • Patients for whom the decision to prescribe therapy with nab-paclitaxel according to the locally approved product's summary of product characteristics (SmPC) has already been taken prior to their enrolment in the study; the assignment of the patient to this therapeutic strategy is not decided in advance by the study protocol but falls within current practice and the prescription of nab-paclitaxel is clearly separated from the physician's decision to include the patient in the current study;
  • Patients must be able and willing to provide written informed consent and to comply with the requirements of this study protocol;
  • Patients must have signed an informed consent document;
  • Patients must be able to read, understand and complete the study specific questionnaire

Who cannot join

  • A patient who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study:
  • Patients who have initiated treatment with nab-paclitaxel more than 7 days prior to their enrolment into the study;
  • Patients that meet any of the contraindications to the administration of the study drug according to the approved SmPC;
  • Receipt of any investigational agent within 30 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational agent (whichever is longer) before the commencement of therapy with nab-paclitaxel.

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Prospective Cohort Study to Provide Real-world Evidence on the Effect of Nab-paclitaxel (ABRAXANE®) Treatment on the Clinical Outcomes and Health-related Quality of Life in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer in Greece. The 'ABReast' Study.

This non-interventional study aims at assessing the impact of nab-paclitaxel on the clinical outcomes and the health-related QoL (HRQoL) of this heavily burdened and difficult-to-treat population. Notably, the data generated in the context of this study will serve as complementary evidence to that of the tightly and strictly controlled pre-registration clinical trial setting, which is of essential importance especially in patient populations with diseases of complex and heterogeneous biology, such as breast cancer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the best objective response to nab-paclitaxel treatment in eligible MBC patients as measured from the start of therapy until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or termination of study participation

    The proportion of objective responders [patients with either a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR) as the best objective response] as measured by routine assessments from the start of nab-paclitaxel therapy until disease progression, occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or study participation termination whichever occurs sooner

    Measured: as measured by routine assessments from the start of nab-paclitaxel therapy (at least 6 months post-treatment onset and up to 12 months) until disease progression, occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or study participation termination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by Genesis Pharma S.A. at 1 site in Greece.

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 7 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 30 Nov 2020. 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 Greece. 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.

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?

Evaluation of the best objective response to nab-paclitaxel treatment in eligible MBC patients as measured from the start of therapy until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or termination of study participation (time frame: as measured by routine assessments from the start of nab-paclitaxel therapy (at least 6 months post-treatment onset and up to 12 months) until disease progression, occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or study participation termination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02626013, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Nov 2020.
