About this study

This is a phase II randomized trial comparing pathologic complete response rates in locally advanced patients recieving either neoadjuvant chemotherapy or neoadjuvant chemoradiation.

Read the detailed description

A prospective randomized phase II trial, that enrolled locally advanced breast cancer patients who were randomized to recieve either neoadjuvant systemic treatment or neoadjuvant systemic treatment concurrently with radiotherapy. Surgery is done for all patients later on as indicated.

The pathological response rates between both groups will be compared, as well as surgical complications and acute radiation toxicity.

Being tested
neoadjuvant chemoradiation
Keywords
preoperative radiotherapy, locally advanced breast cancer, pathologic response

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • neoadjuvant chemoradiationRadiation

    Neoadjuvant chemoradiation will be prescribed as: 4 cycles of Adriamycin and Cyclophosphamide followed by radiotherapy concurrently with taxanes/ taxanes and carboplatin. followed by surgery as indicated.

Study groups in NCT06631066
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
neoadjuvant chemotherapy armNo interventionThe patients in this arm will recieve neoadjuvant chemotherapy (with anti-her2 agents if indicated) according to the national guidelines. post systemic treatment imaging will be done to assess the response, followed by surgery as indicated. Adjuvant radiotherapy as well as hormonal or target therapy will be prescribed as indicated. Radiation therapy will be delivered in hypofractionated course (40.05 Gray over 15 fractions with boost to tumor bed 10 Gray over four fractions) to the breast/ chestwall as well as regional lymphatics.
Neoadjuvant chemoradiation armExperimentalThe patients in this arm will recieve neoadjuvant chemotherapy with preoperative radiotherapy concurrently with taxanes. Surgery is done 6-8 weeks as indicated, followed by systemic treatment according to the guidelines.
Receives: Radiation: neoadjuvant chemoradiation

What is being measured

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

  1. pathologic complete response rates

    the pathologic response will be measured by the Randomized cancer burden (RCB) scoring system

    Measured: 1 week postoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. acute radiation toxicity

    radiation therapy oncology group (RTOG) acute morbidity score

    Measured: during radiation therapy: week 2,3,4. weekly after the end of radiation therapy for 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing neoadjuvant chemoradiation in people with Breast Cancer Female, run by National Cancer Institute, Egypt 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 7 inclusion and 6 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 8 Oct 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 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.

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?

pathologic complete response rates (time frame: 1 week postoperative). 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 NCT06631066, which also lists 2 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?
