About this study

Official title: Combination of DLBS1425 With Anthracyclin-based Regimen as a Neoadjuvant Therapy in Subjects With Stage II or III Breast Cancer

This is a 2-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aiming to determine the efficacy and safety of DLBS1425 in combination with anthracyclin-based regimen as a neoadjuvant therapy in subjects with previously untreated stage II or III (operable) breast cancer.

The anthracyclin-based regimen in the study will be either CAF/iv and CEF/iv only. The neoadjuvant anthracyclin-based chemotherapy will be given for 3 cycles. The length of each cycle will be 21-28 days.

Read the detailed description

The duration of treatment for each subject will be 63 - 84 days (or 3 cycles). The cycle will be initiated at Day-1 (D1 of the 1st cycle). The subsequent cycles will start on Day-22 (D1 of the 2nd cycle) and Day-43 (D1 of the 3rd cycle). DLBS1425 capsules will be administered orally every day (starting from D1 of each cycle) during the study period. All subjects will be under direct supervision of a medical doctor during the study period.

Clinical and laboratory examinations to evaluate investigational drug's efficacy and safety will be performed at baseline and at the end of every cycle over the study course; whilst breast-CT scan will be performed at baseline and at the end of study course.

In addition, at the end of study, at the discretion of Investigator and subjects' own willingness, subjects with good response to treatment (i.e. RECIST and pathological evaluation are regarded as complete or partial response) may continue their breast-cancer therapy with DLBS1425.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical response as measured by RECIST

    Best overall response rate defined as proportion of subjects with either complete or partial response, according to the RECIST criteria at the end of study.

    Measured: 63 - 84 days

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Rate of clinical response

    Rate of clinical response categorized as complete response, partial response, stable, and progressive disease, which will be evaluated clinically at the end of every cycle

    Measured: 21 - 84 days

  2. Rate of pathological complete response (after surgery)

    Pathological complete response based on histological examination will be assessed after surgery. The surgery itself will be performed within 7 - 14 days after the last cycle.

    Measured: 7 - 14 days after the last cycle

  3. Rate of potential breast-conserving procedure

    Rate of potential breast-conserving procedure as assessed by mammography, will be evaluated at the end of study.

    Measured: 63-84 days

  4. The change level of relevant biomarkers

    Relevant biomarkers related to breast cancer (CEA, CA-15.3, and serum LDH)will be measured at baseline and at the end of every cycle.

    Measured: 21 - 84 days

  5. Haematology

    Haematology parameters (Haemoglobin level, Haematocrit, red blood cell count, white blood cell count as well as its differentials, and platelet count) will be evaluated at baseline and the end of every cycle.

    Measured: 21-84 days

  6. Liver Function

    Liver function parameters (alkaline phosphatase, ALT, AST, bilirubin levels)will be measured at baseline, and the end of every cycle.

    Measured: 21-84 days

  7. Renal Function

    Renal Function (serum creatinine and Blood urea nitrogen levels) will be measured at baseline and the end of every cycle.

    Measured: 21-84 days

  8. Cardiac function

    Cardiac function will be assessed by ECHOcardiography at baseline and the end of study.

    Measured: 63-84 days

  9. Adverse Events

    Adverse events as well as number of subjects experienced the events will be observed and evaluated during the study period (from the first dose of study medication taken (Day 1) till the end of study treatment (Day 63 - Day 84).

    Measured: 1 - 84 days

  10. The improvement of quality of life

    The improvement of quality of life of the subjects as measured at baseline and at the end of each treatment cycle, using Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) Questionnaire (FACIT.org)

    Measured: 21 - 84 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing DLBS1425 in people with Breast Cancer, run by Dexa Medica Group at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2013. 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 Indonesia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Clinical response as measured by RECIST (time frame: 63 - 84 days). 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 May 2013.
