About this study

To determine the landscape of gene mutation before and after endocrine therapy, to search for molecular markers of endocrine therapy efficacy, and to explore the clinical value of using NGS detection of ctDNA to guide precise endocrine therapy in patients with advanced breast cancer. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), and the secondary endpoints included overall survival time (OS), adverse events (AE), and severe adverse events (SAE).

Read the detailed description

Before treatment, the patients in the study group underwent NGS detection of ctDNA and formulated treatment plan according to the test results: 1) those with ESR1 mutation and who did not use fulvestrant before, preferred fulvestrant; 2) those with abnormal activation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway signal, preferred mTOR inhibitor combined with endocrine therapy; 3) those with HER-2 sensitive point mutation, preferred anti-HER-2 therapy combined with endocrine therapy; 4) PDGFR mutation, preferential use of PDGFR inhibitors combined with endocrine therapy; 5) no significant gene mutation, making endocrine therapy plan according to the actual clinical situation. After 2 months of endocrine therapy, all patients underwent NGS detection of ctDNA, and the efficacy was evaluated according to RECIST v1.1 standard. If the efficacy evaluation is effective, continue the current treatment and re-evaluate the efficacy every two months; if the efficacy evaluation is ineffective (progress), then withdraw from this study. The vital signs, blood routine, liver and kidney functions and imaging examinations were examined at least every two months in the patients in the study group, and the curative effect was evaluated according to RECIST v1.1 standard.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    From date of first use endocrine treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first

    Measured: up to 36 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Time from first use endocrine treatment to death

    Measured: up to 60 months

  2. Adverse events (AEs)

    Adverse events (AEs) and laboratory tests graded according to the NCI CTCAE (version 4.0)

    Measured: up to 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) detection in people with Breast Neoplasm Female and Therapeutics, run by Peking Union Medical College 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 10 inclusion and 5 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 20 Jun 2019. 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.

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 Fei Ma, Dr. (+86-13910217780, drmafei@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: up to 36 months). 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 20 Jun 2019.
