About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Evaluating Circulating Endothelial Cell as A Surrogate Marker for Monitoring Treatment Efficacy of Docetaxel Plus Capecitabine With Bevacizumab as First Line Treatment for Patients With Locally Recurrent and Metastatic Breast Cancer

This single arm study will evaluate the correlation between circulating endothelial cell levels and treatment efficacy in patients with locally recurrent and metastatic breast cancer given first line treatment with Avastin in combination with docetaxel + Xeloda.Patients will be treated with docetaxel 60mg/m2 iv on day 1, and Xeloda 900mg/m2 po on days 1-14, of each 3 week cycle, plus Avastin 7.5 mg/kg iv on day 1 of each 3 week cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bevacizumab [Avastin], capecitabine [Xeloda] and docetaxel in people with Breast Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 4 sites in Taiwan.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 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 4 sites in Taiwan. 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: To be confirmed). 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall response rate (time frame: Every 12 weeks). 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 2 Nov 2016.
