About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of Lapatinib in Combination With Everolimus in Triple Negative Metastatic or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

The patient is being asked to join this clinical research study to find out if lapatinib, an agent that targets a protein, called epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on the surface of cancer cells in combination with everolimus, an agent that targets a protein in the cancer cell, called mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is effective in metastatic triple negative breast cancers that are no longer controlled by standard chemotherapy.

Being tested
Lapatinib and Everolimus
Keywords
Metastatic breast cancer, Triple negative breast cancer, Estrogen receptor (ER)/progesterone receptor (PR)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer

What participants receive

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

  • Lapatinib and EverolimusDrug

    Also called Lapatinib, Tykerb, Everolimus, Affinitor

    Lapatinib: 1250 mg by mouth daily

    Everolimus: 5mg by mouth daily

Arm A: Lapatinib plus EverolimusExperimentalNot described
Receives: Drug: Lapatinib and Everolimus

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Response Rate Will Measured Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria. Tumor Assessment for All Lesions Must be Performed Every Eight Weeks While on Study by CT Scan.

    Measured: Tumor assessment for all lesions must be performed by CT scan every 8 weeks while on study.

  2. The Safety and Toxicity of the Combination Therapy of Lapatinib and Everolimus Will be Monitored Using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects (CTCAE) v. 3.0. The Incidence of Any Grade 3 or 4 Toxicities Will be Analyzed.

    Measured: Safety assessments will be performed every four weeks while the patient remains on study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lapatinib and Everolimus in people with Breast Neoplasms and Breast Cancer, run by Emory University at 3 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 11 inclusion and 11 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 22 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Sep 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Will Measured Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria. Tumor Assessment for All Lesions Must be Performed Every Eight Weeks While on Study by CT Scan. (time frame: Tumor assessment for all lesions must be performed by CT scan every 8 weeks while on study.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Sep 2014.
