About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study Of Vinorelbine Oral Plus Capecitabine Combination In Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer

This study will evaluate the toxicity and secondary the efficacy of the combination vinorelbine plus capecitabine in metastatic breast cancer patients

Read the detailed description

The combination capecitabine-vinorelbine, with iv administration of vinorelbine, has been studied in a phase [I]/[II], with favourable profile of toxicity in pretreated patients with anthracyclines and/or taxanes (Oncology News International vol 12, no 3, suppl 2, 2003).

In a study of toxicity and effectiveness, Vanhopher reported objective response rates (PR) in 21 from 45 patients (47%) and stabilization of disease (SD) in 16 patients (36%). Severe leucopenia (grade 4), was reported in 5% of patients (Borquez D, et al: Proc Am Soc Clin Oncol 19: Abstract 420, 2000)

Being tested
Vinorelbine oral, Capecitabine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Vinorelbine oral and Capecitabine in people with Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by Hellenic Oncology Research Group at 4 sites in Greece.

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 10 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 15 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Greece. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of vinorelbine oral plus capecitabine combination (time frame: Toxicity assessment at 1st cycle). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Dec 2009.
