Bone metastases, leptomeningeal disease, ascites, pleural or pericardial effusions, inflammatory breast disease, lymphangitic spread or cystic lesions are not acceptable as target lesions. Target lesions must be ≥ 10 mm longest diameter measured in one dimension using spiral CT, or ≥ 20 mm longest diameter measured in one dimension using conventional techniques. In addition to the definitions pertaining to the target lesion(s) from the RECIST criteria above, the target lesion(s) must not have been previously irradiated (newly arising lesions in previously irradiated areas are acceptable).

  • Prior usage of capecitabine or mitomycin as adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment
  • Life expectancy < 3 months
  • Not-ambulatory or with an ECOG performance status > 1
  • Insufficient hematological, renal and hepatic functions:
  • hemoglobin < 8.0 g/dL

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Capecitabine and Mitomycin C in people with Breast Cancer and Metastasis, run by Croatian Cooperative Group for Clinical Research in Oncology at 1 site in Croatia.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Sep 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Croatia. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Eduard Vrdoljak, PhD MD (00385-21-556-129, eduard.vrdoljak@st.htnet.hr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response rate (time frame: average 5 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 8 Sep 2010.
