About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Pegteograstim in Korean Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Dose-dense Doxorubicin/Cyclophosphamide

This is a prospective, single arm study, which is examining doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (AC) once every 2 weeks with pegteograstim support in Korean early breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

Pegteograstim is a novel monoPEGylated recombinant human G-CSF. In this prospective study, the incidence of febrile neutropenia during four cycles of dose dense (DD) doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC) with pegtoegrastim support is being investigated.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the incidence of febrile neutropenia during four cycles of DD AC with pegteograstim support (8 weeks).

Patients received four cycles of DD-AC (60 mg/m² doxorubicin and 600 mg/m² cyclophosphamide administered intravenously on day 1 every two weeks).

A fixed dose of 6.0 mg pegteograstim was administered subcutaneously on day 2 of each chemotherapy cycle (between 22 and 26 hours after the completion of chemotherapy).

Clinical, hematological, and biochemical assessments were done before the start of each cycle.

Adverse events (AEs) were graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTCAE version 4.03).

  • PegfilgrastimDrug

    A fixed dose of 6.0 mg pegteograstim was administered subcutaneously on day 2 of each chemotherapy cycle (between 22 and 26 hours after the completion of chemotherapy).

  • Doxorubicin/Cyclophosphamide(AC) treatmentDrug

    doxorubicin 60mg/m2 IV every 2 weeks cyclophosphamide 600mg/m2 IV every 2 weeks

    Four cycles of dose dense AC treatment will be given every 2 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. the incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN)

    FN is defined as neutropenia (<500 neutrophils/μL) with a febrile event (a single oral temperature of ≥38.3°C or a temperature of ≥38.0°C sustained over a one-hour period).

    Measured: 2months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. the incidences of febrile neutropenia during the first cycle of chemotherapy

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 14days)

  2. the incidences of hospitalization for FN

    Measured: 2months

  3. number of grade 3 or 4 neutropenia in the first cycle of DD-AC

    Measured: 2months

  4. the incidences of dose delay or reduction of chemotherapy

    Measured: 2months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Pegfilgrastim and Doxorubicin/Cyclophosphamide(AC) treatment in people with Breast Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 11 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 2 Jul 2018. 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 South Korea. 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?

the incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN) (time frame: 2months). 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 2 Jul 2018.
