About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Endocrine Therapy Compared to Chemotherapy as a Neoadjuvant Treatment for Patients With Hormone Receptor-positive and HER2-negative Breast Cancer.

Eligible patients will be divided into two groups; one will receive neoadjuvant endocrine therapy and the other one will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomized into two groups:

The first group (Arm A) will receive NCT; (Any approved Chemotherapy protocol by guidelines.

The second group(Arm B) will receive NET; GnRH analog Goserelin acetate 3.6 mg every 4 weeks with tamoxifen 20 mg daily for premenopausal patients or an aromatase inhibitor for postmenopausal patients.

  • Before and during treatments (every 3 weeks for the NCT group, and every 4 weeks for the NET group), the clinical assessment will be performed for all patients.
  • All patients will undergo breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before the start of treatment, after 12 weeks (3 months) of treatment, and after the end of treatment before surgery.
  • We will determine the objective tumor response with every measurement method and assess the response according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) version 1.1.
  • Treatment will be continued for 19-21 weeks before surgery for the chemotherapy group and 24 weeks for the endocrine therapy group.
  • Ki-67 will be assessed using a sample of the core biopsy before treatment and a surgery specimen after treatment.
  • Adverse events will be recorded at every patient visit and will be assessed according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 5.0.
  • Surgery will be performed between the 24th and 26th week.
  • Arm B Patients who will develop PD or SD after 6 months of treatment will be shifted to arm A.

The primary endpoint will be;

  • The clinical response rate at the end of neoadjuvant treatment, as will be determined using caliper and MRI measurements.
  • A clinical response included either a complete response (CR), a partial response (PR), Progressive Disease (PD), or Stable Disease (SD) according to the (RECIST) version 1.1.

Secondary endpoints will be;

  • The rate of pathological complete response (pCR).
  • The rate of breast conservation surgery.
  • Ki-67 changes.
  • The length of time to maximum response within a treatment period.
  • The Adverse events associated with each treatment arm.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Hormonal Antineoplastics and Chemotherapy drug in people with Female Breast Cancer, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 6 Mar 2023. 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 Egypt. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 Amal Ali, MD (01010454426, amal_ali@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical response rate (time frame: 6 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 6 Mar 2023.
