Trial summary

RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using ICI 182780 before surgery may block the uptake of estrogen by the tumor cells and prevent metastases. It is not yet known if ICI 182780 is effective in preventing breast cancer metastases. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind Phase III Clinical Trial to Compare the Effects of a Pre-Operatively Administered Single Dose of "Faslodex" (Long-Acting ICI 182.780) With Placebo on Tumor Recurrence in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women Treated for Operable First Primary Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using ICI 182780 before surgery may block the uptake of estrogen by the tumor cells and prevent metastases. It is not yet known if ICI 182780 is effective in preventing breast cancer metastases.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of ICI 182780 given before surgery in treating women who have stage I or stage II primary breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the inhibitory effect of ICI 182780 on the development of metastasis, as measured by disease-free survival and overall survival, in women with operable stage I or II primary breast cancer.
  • Determine toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to participating center and menopausal status (premenopausal vs postmenopausal).

Patients are randomized to receive either ICI 182780 IM or placebo IM over 2 minutes on day 1. Patients undergo surgery between days 8 and 29.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 3,656 patients (1,828 per arm) will be accrued for this study within 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing fulvestrant and conventional surgery in people with Breast Cancer, run by European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - EORTC at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 2012. 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 United Kingdom. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 was stopped early (reason given: low accrual). Results are not available in the source record.

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.

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 19 Jul 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
