Key requirements

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

Study population: Evaluable patients with metastatic or locally advanced TNBC who are scheduled for surgical tumor biopsy or resection

Who may be able to join

  • Has metastatic or locally recurrent triple negative breast cancer and is scheduled for medically indicated surgical biopsy or resection of disease
  • Will have measurable or evaluable (nonmeasurable) disease per RECIST v 1.1 (see Section 10) present after surgical biopsy/resection. Note: following surgical resection, if the tumor sample is found to be inadequate for comprehensive molecular analysis, the patient will be deemed ineligible and will be replaced.
  • Has received at least 1 prior chemotherapeutic regimen for their metastatic or locally recurrent TNBC prior to initiating the molecularly-selected therapy. There is no limit on the prior therapy for TNBC. Note: We strongly recommend holding of on intervening therapy if possible from the time of biopsy to the completion of sequencing so as not to change the cancer under the selective pressure of treatment, so that the sequencing results are reflective of the current cancer.
  • Is at least 18 years of age
  • Has an expected survival of at least 6 months, as estimated by the treating oncologist
  • Has planned surgical resection (indicated for the medical care of the patient) that will yield a minimum fresh/frozen tumor sample of 1 cm x 1 cm x 1 cm (~300 mg) that will be available for molecular profiling analysis.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Is agreeable to having a blood sample (10-20 mL) drawn and analyzed to compare their normal genetic profile to that of their tumor sample
  • Has signed the most recent Patient Informed Consent Form
  • Has signed a Patient Authorization Form

Who cannot join

  • Has breast cancer other than metastatic or locally recurrent TNBC. Note: surgical resection of the recurrent TNBC will render the patient as "no evidence of disease" (NED). NED patients are ineligible and will be replaced.
  • Has a history of heart disease, other conditions that would prevent treatment with a standard chemotherapeutic agent
  • Has evidence of central nervous system (CNS) involvement that is progressing or that requires radiation, resection or steroid therapy
  • Has a serious uncontrolled intercurrent medical or psychiatric illness, including serious infection
  • Is a pregnant or nursing woman
  • Is unable to comply with requirements of study

About this study

Patients with metastatic or locally recurrent triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) who are scheduled for medically indicated surgical biopsy or resection of disease will be identified. Fresh/frozen tissue will be collected and will undergo comprehensive molecular evaluation with NextGen sequencing. TGEN's clonal genomics analyses will be applied in the analysis to identify and prioritize the mutated targets. Therapeutic options, based on the genetic profile of each patient's tumor, will be discussed and an appropriate molecularly-selected agent will be recommended by the Study Investigator(s) (SI) and treating oncologist as treatment for the patient.

This is an open-label, pilot trial. Patients with metastatic or locally recurrent TNBC who are scheduled for medically indicated surgical biopsy or resection will be enrolled and therapeutic options, based on the genetic profile of each patient's tumor, will be discussed with the patient.

Time-to-progression (TTP) for these patients following the selected therapy is the primary objective and will be compared to the TTP(s) for their most recent prior therapy. A 30% increase in TTP with the molecularly-targeted agent compared with the TTP on the immediate prior therapy will be considered as evidence of clinical benefit from the selected therapy. The secondary endpoints are best response to the molecularly-selected therapy, overall survival (OS) and genetic mutation evaluation in metastatic (or locally recurrent) TNBC.

The study is designed to demonstrate that the collection and analysis of these tumor samples is feasible.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time-to-progression (TTP)

    Time-to-progression (TTP) for these patients following the selected therapy is the primary objective and will be compared to the TTP(s) for their most recent prior therapy.

    Measured: Throughout study, for up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Best response

    Best response to therapy selected based on genomic analysis will be determined. Response will be evaluated in this study using the international criteria published by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee v1.1.

    Measured: To molecularly selected therapy, for up to 3 years

  2. Overall survival

    Survival will be measured, from the selected treatment start date to the date of death or the last date the patient was known to be alive.

    Measured: Throughout the study, for up to 3 years

  3. Genetic mutation evaluation

    Genomic analysis of whole blood and resected tumor will be done

    Measured: After surgical resection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Breast Cancer and Triple Negative Breast Cancer, run by US Oncology Research at 18 sites 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 9 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 23 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

Time-to-progression (TTP) (time frame: Throughout study, for up to 3 years). 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 23 Jul 2013.
