About this study

Official title: Trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) Treatment in HER2-positive Breast Cancer Patients With Progressive Disease After TKIs or HP Therapy: a Multicenter, Single-arm, Phase II Study

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in the treatment of patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer after TKIs or HP therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • The objective response rate of patients receiving T-DM1 therapy with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer after TKIs or HP therapy.
  • The adverse events and prognosis of patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer who receive the T-DM1 therapy.
  • Changes of anti-tumor immunity during T-DM1 therapy in patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer.

Participants will receive T-DM1 treatment (3.6mg/kg, d1/21, IVD) until progressive diseases or intolerable adverse effects occurs.

Being tested
Trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) in people with Advanced Breast Cancer and Objective Response Rate, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University 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 9 inclusion and 10 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 16 Apr 2024. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wenbin Zhou, Ph.D (+86 13814162016, zhouwenbin@njmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (time frame: up to 12 months). 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 NCT06125834, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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 16 Apr 2024.
