About this study

Official title: A Double-blinded Phase II Study of the Expression of Ki-67/MIB-1 in Women With Hyperplasia of the Breast Randomized to Receive Daily Celecoxib 400 mg BID or Placebo

To assess the effects of twelve months of celecoxib administration by evaluating breast tissue needle aspirations, to determine if cell growth can be slowed.

Read the detailed description

A blind randomized study of celecoxib in women at high risk of developing breast cancer. Subjects are to take twelve months of drug/placebo. At baseline and after twelve months subjects will have a random periareolar fine needle breast aspiration that will be assessed for epithelial cell growth and other markers of risk. Baseline and twelve month serum samples will also be assessed for hormones and growth factors which may be associated with breast cancer risk. Mammograms at baseline and twelve months will also be assessed for breast density changes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Percent of Breast Epithelial Cells Staining Positive for Ki-67

    Immunocytochemical staining of breast epithelial cells. Positive cells reflect proliferative activity.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Mammographic Breast Density

    The percent of mammographic breast area that is considered to be at increased density. Evaluated using the semi-automated computer program Cumulus.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  2. Serum Estradiol Concentration

    Change in serum estradiol concentration

    Measured: Baseline to 12 months

  3. Serum Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) Concentration

    Change in serum concentration

    Measured: Baseline to 12 months

  4. Molecular Ratio of Serum Concentration of IGF-1 to IGFBP3

    Change ion ratio.

    Measured: baseline to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing celecoxib in people with Breast Cancer, run by Carol Fabian, MD at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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 7 Nov 2016. 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 States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Sep 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change in Percent of Breast Epithelial Cells Staining Positive for Ki-67 (time frame: Baseline and 12 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 7 Nov 2016.
