About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Foretinib in Patients With Estrogen Receptor (ER), Progesterone Receptor (PR), and Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) Negative, Recurrent/Metastatic Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects this new drug foretinib has on this type of breast cancer, called "triple negative" breast cancer because the cancer tissue is estrogen, progesterone and HER2 receptor negative.

Read the detailed description

This research is being done because there is no treatment that will cure this type of cancer. Although some types of chemotherapy can cause this cancer to shrink for a time, better options are needed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response and early progression rate

    All patients will be assessed for response at the end of every second cycle (every 8 weeks). Response and progression will be evaluated using RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: Every 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    All patients will be assessed for toxicity at the end of every cycle (every 4 weeks). Adverse events will be graded using CTCAE V4.0.

    Measured: every 4 weeks

  2. Relationship between response and biomarkers

    Archival tissue will be collected on all patients. Pre-treatment fresh tissue biopsies CTC's will be collected on all patients entered in the second stage of accrual. Translational research studies will be done as described in protocol section 17.0.

    Measured: 2 years (end of study)

  3. Biomarkers in Tumour cells

    Archival tissue will be collected on all patients. Pre-treatment fresh tissue biopsies CTC's will be collected on all patients entered in the second stage of accrual. Translational research studies will be done as described in protocol section 17.0.

    Measured: 2 years (end of study)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Foretinib in people with Recurrent Breast Cancer, run by NCIC Clinical Trials Group at 9 sites in Canada.

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 17 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 4 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Canada. 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?

Objective response and early progression rate (time frame: Every 8 weeks). 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 NCT01147484, 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 4 Aug 2023.
