About this study

Official title: Phase Ⅲ Trial of Neoadjuvant Recombinant Human Endostatin, Docetaxel and Epirubicin as First-Line Therapy in Patients With Breast Cancer

This study was designed to determine the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant docetaxel and epirubicin (DE) with or without human recombinant endostatin (endostar) for breast cancer patients. The hypothesis of this protocol is that a combined angiogenesis inhibiting therapy to chemotherapy could further benefit breast cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled phase Ⅲ clinical trial. A total of 800 patients with core-biopsy confirmed breast cancer, stage ⅡA to ⅢC, and to be treated with neoadjuvant systemic therapy are eligible for entry into this study. Patients will be allocated randomly to two groups to receive either 3 cycles of neoadjuvant DE and endostar or 3 cycles of neoadjuvant DE. All cases receive mammography, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and positron emission tomography (PET) scanning pre- and post-neoadjuvant therapy, and then undergo surgical resection. The primary endpoint is clinical/pathological response. The clinical response will be evaluated according to RECIST criteria. The parameters of tumor metabolism and blood supply, as demonstrated by PET, MRA and CEUS, will be collected and analysed. The secondary endpoint is (1) the number of participants with adverse events, (2) quality of life scores, and (3) the number of adverse events reported during neoadjuvant therapy. In addition, the role of mammography, CEUS, MRA and PET for response evaluation, as well as the angiogenic profile and biological information involved in tumor response will be investigated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical/pathological response

    The clincial response will be evaluated according to RECIST criteria. The parameters of tumor metabolism and blood supply, as demonstrated by PET, MRA and CEUS, will be collected and analysed.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    The number of participants with adverse events will be recorded and analysed.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Quality of life

    Quality of life is scored using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life of Questionnaire (QLQ30) at study entry and prior to surgery.

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Number of adverse events reported during neoadjuvant therapy

    The adverse events during neoadjuvant therapy will be graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI CTC) version 2.0.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing docetaxel and epirubicin and docetaxel and epirubicin plus endostatin in people with Breast Cancer, run by Xijing Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 5 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 24 Nov 2011. 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 China. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jianghao Chen, MD, PhD (86-29-84775271, chenjh@fmmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical/pathological response (time frame: 3 years). 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 NCT01479036, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 24 Nov 2011.
