About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Phase 3 Study Of Sunitinib In Combination With Capecitabine Compared With Capecitabine In Patients With Previously Treated Breast Cancer

The treatment received with sunitinib plus capecitabine could delay tumor growth longer than with treatment with capecitabine alone.

Being tested
Sunitinib + Capecitabine, Capecitabine
Medical subject headings
Breast Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Sunitinib + CapecitabineDrug

    Sunitinib administered orally at a starting dose of 37.5 mg once a day on a continuous regimen.

    Capecitabine administered orally at a starting dose of 2000 mg/m^2 per day [1000 mg/m^2 bid (twice daily)] from days 1-14 every 3 weeks. Study treatment should be given until progression or withdrawal from the study for other reasons.

  • CapecitabineDrug

    Capecitabine administered orally at a starting dose of 2500 mg/m^2 per day [1250 mg/m^2 bid (twice daily)] from days 1-14 every 3 weeks. Study treatment should be given until progression or withdrawal from the study for other reasons. At the time of progression, patients may be eligible to crossover to single agent sunitinib, administered orally at a starting dose of 37.5 mg daily.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. If tumor progression data include more than 1 date, the first date will be used. PFS (in months) will be calculated as (first event date minus randomization date plus 1) divided by 30.4.

    Measured: Baseline until disease progression (up to 3 years from first dose)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (OR)

    Proportion of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST); CR: disappearance of all target lesions, PR: greater than or equal to (>=) 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions (SLD) of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline SLD. Confirmed responses = persist on repeat imaging study at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. Designation of best response of stable disease (SD) required the criteria to be met at least 5 weeks after randomization.

    Measured: Baseline until response or disease progression (up to 3 years from first dose)

  2. Duration of Response (DR)

    Time from the first documentation of objective tumor response (CR or PR) that was subsequently confirmed to the first documentation of disease progression (PD) or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. If tumor progression data included more than 1 date, the first date was used. DR (in months) was calculated as [the date response ended (date of PD or death) minus first CR or PR date that was subsequently confirmed plus 1)] divided by 30.4.

    Measured: Baseline until response or disease progression (up to 3 years from first dose)

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. OS (in months) calculated as (date of death minus randomization date plus 1) divided by 30.4. For patients lacking survival data beyond the date of their last follow-up, the OS time was censored on the last date they were known to be alive. Patients lacking survival data beyond randomization had their OS times censored at randomization.

    Measured: Baseline until death or up to 3 years from first dose

  4. Percent Chance of Participant Survival

    Probability of survival 2 years and 3 years after the first dose of study treatment.

    Measured: Year 1, Year 2, Year 3

  5. Change From Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer's Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30)

    EORTC QLQ-C30: global health/quality of life (QoL), functional domains (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, social), and symptom scales/items (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea). Recall period: past week; response range: not at all to very much; global/QoL range: very poor to excellent. Scale score range: 0 to 100. Higher functional/global QoL score = better functioning and higher symptom score = greater degree of symptoms

    Measured: Day 1 of each treatment cycle (up to 3 years or end of treatment)

  6. Change From Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer's Quality of Life Questionnaire Breast Cancer Module (EORTC QLQ-BR23)

    BR23: measured disease related symptoms of dry mouth, eye pain, hair loss, hot flushes, attractiveness, future health, sexual activity, arm/shoulder pain, breast pain, swollen breast, and skin problems on the breast. Recall period: past week; response range: not at all to very much. Scale score range: 0 to 100. Higher symptom score = greater degree of symptoms.

    Measured: Day 1 of each treatment cycle (up to 3 years or end of treatment)

  7. Change From Baseline in EuroQol Group's EuroQol 5-Dimensional Self-Report Questionnaire (EQ-5D)

    EQ-5D: health status in 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, usual activities). Three-level scale (1=no problem, 2=some problem, and 3=extreme problem). A single score between 1 and 3 is generated for each domain. For each subject, the outcome rating on the 5 domains could be mapped to a single index through an algorithm. The index ranges between 0 and 1, with the higher score indicating a better health state perceived by the participant.

    Measured: Day 1 of each treatment cycle (up to 3 years or end of treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Sunitinib + Capecitabine and Capecitabine in people with Breast Neoplasms, run by Pfizer at 169 sites in 18 countries.

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 3 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 26 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 169 sites in United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Canada and 13 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Jan 2011). 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?

Progression Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: Baseline until disease progression (up to 3 years from first dose)). 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 NCT00435409, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Jun 2012.
