About this study

Official title: A Retrospective Study of Fulvestrant in Postmenopausal Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer in Greece (The 'RESPONSE' Study)

This is a retrospective chart-review study that will be based on the collection of data from electronical or paper-based medical records with available data on patients who have commenced treatment with fulvestrant after January 1st of 2007. All necessary information for the purposes of the present study will be collected with the use of a paper-Case Record Form.

Read the detailed description

To date, there are no available data on the use of fulvestrant in the treatment of postmenopausal women with metastatic breast cancer in current clinical practice in Greece. In view of this significant lack of knowledge, we designed this retrospective study in order to evaluate the effectiveness of fulvestrant in real-life settings, by obtaining data regarding the use of fulvestrant in current clinical practice among treating physicians in Greece. This retrospective study aims to address the following questions:

  • What is the clinical outcome of fulvestrant treatment in terms of TTP when used in metastatic breast cancer in a real life clinical setting?
  • What is the positioning of fulvestrant in the hormone therapy sequencing in metastatic breast cancer in Greece?
  • What are the other clinical outcomes (ORR, duration of response, CBR) of fulvestrant treatment in metastatic breast cancer in a real life clinical setting and what is the relation between clinical outcomes and fulvestrant's position in the treatment sequence?
  • What is the usual duration of fulvestrant treatment in metastatic breast cancer in the real life clinical setting and which are the reasons for treatment discontinuation?
  • Treatment failure with fulvestrant: what is the next step in sequencing according to patients' breast cancer treatment history?

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Progression

    To evaluate the time to progression (TTP) from the initiation of fulvestrant treatment in postmenopausal women with endocrine-positive breast cancer who have failed at least one prior endocrine therapy, either as adjuvant treatment or for the treatment of advanced disease

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Objective Response Rate

    To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR), i.e. the rate of both complete and partial response, and to estimate the duration of response while on treatment with fulvestrant

    Measured: > 6 months

  2. Tumor growth control

    To evaluate the clinical benefit rate (CBR), i.e. the rate of both complete and partial response as well as stable disease ≥ 6 months, while on treatment with fulvestrant, where applicable

    Measured: >6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Hellenic Oncology Research Group at 9 sites in Greece.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 13 Mar 2012. 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 Greece. 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 (time frame: 1 year). 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 13 Mar 2012.
