Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 21 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patient is female, and either post-menopausal (cessation of menses for more than 1 year) or surgically sterile (has had a documented bilateral oophorectomy and/or documented hysterectomy) or in therapy-induced premature menopause with LHRH agonists. If of childbearing potential the result of a urine human chorionic gonadotropin pregnancy test, performed on the same day as and with the result known before study drug administration, must be negative.
  • Histological or cytological evidence of primary breast cancer.
  • Bone dominant disease (with or without metastases in soft tissue, lymph nodes and/or skin) with at least one non-irradiated bone metastasis on planar bone scintigraphy/SPECT ± CT within previous the 12 weeks.
  • Patient has unequivocally progressed on endocrine therapy and further benefit from endocrine therapy is considered unlikely (progression must be documented based on imaging and/or other clinically relevant information).
  • Patient has been on bisphosphonate therapy for at least 3 months prior to treatment start and no change to bisphosphonate therapy is expected during the treatment phase of the study, or patient is not being treated with bisphosphonates, and such treatment is not planned to start during the treatment period.
  • Latest endocrine therapy stopped at least 2 weeks prior to treatment start.

  • ECOG PS 0 - 2.
  • Life expectancy ≥6 months.
  • Patient fulfils the following certain laboratory requirements.

Who cannot join

  • Received an investigational drug within 4 weeks prior to the administration of Alpharadin, or is scheduled to receive one during the treatment period.
  • Received chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or external beam radiation therapy within the last 4 weeks prior to administration of study drug, or has not recovered from acute ARs as a result of such therapy.
  • Is likely to require chemotherapy or immunotherapy within the 16 weeks treatment period.
  • Presence of imminent or established spinal cord compression based on clinical findings and/or MRI.
  • Presence of other currently active (relapse within the last 3 years) malignancy (except non-melanoma skin cancer) that are not breast cancer metastases.
  • Presence of unequivocal visceral metastases requiring chemotherapy treatment in the next 6 months, based on Investigator's judgement. Brain metastases are allowed only if well controlled and if not associated with symptoms. Treatment for brain metastasis should have been completed at least 8 weeks prior to treatment start.
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Patients with any other serious illness or medical condition, such as:
  • any uncontrolled infection
  • clinical heart failure severe enough to cause marked limitation of activity, and who is only comfortable at rest; or heart failure more severe than this (NYHA Heart Failure Class III or IV)
  • Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis
  • Bone marrow myelodysplasia
  • Unmanageable faecal incontinence

About this study

Official title: An Open-label Phase IIa, Non-randomized Study of Alpharadin® in Breast Cancer Patients With Bone Dominant Disease no Longer Considered Suitable for Endocrine Therapy

The purpose of the study is to investigate if multiple (up to four) intravenous injections of Xofigo (Alpharadin) have any clinically relevant effect on bone markers in breast cancer patients with bone dominant disease who have progressed on endocrine therapy and are no longer considered suitable for endocrine therapy. In addition the safety of Xofigo (Alpharadin) will be assessed.

Being tested
Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223)
Medical subject headings
Breast Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223)Drug

    The required volume of study drug to be administered to a patient was calculated using the patient's body weight (50 kBq/kg b.w.).

Study groups in NCT01070485
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Radium-223 dichloride (Xofigo, BAY 88-8223)ExperimentalPatients were to receive 4 intravenous administrations of Radium-223 at a dose of 50 kBq/kg body weight (b.w) at intervals of 4 weeks. Radium-223 was given as add-on therapy to existing bisphosphonate therapy.
Receives: Drug: Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223)

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in bone markers (urine levels of NTX (uNTX) and bone-alkaline phosphatase (ALP)

    Measured: 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. All safety data, including adverse events, changes in laboratory variables, vitals signs, physical examination, late toxicity

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Biochemical markers (additional bone markers and CA15.3)

    Measured: 16 weeks

  3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS)

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Pain

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Radium-223 chloride (BAY88-8223) in people with Breast Cancer and Bone Metastases, run by Bayer at 4 sites in 3 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 9 inclusion and 12 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 25 Jun 2014. 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 Belgium, Norway, 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 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 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?

Changes in bone markers (urine levels of NTX (uNTX) and bone-alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (time frame: 16 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 25 Jun 2014.
