About this study

This is a single center, non-randomized, open label phase II trial to evaluate the clinical and pathologic response of neoadjuvant cisplatin-monotherapy in BRCA1 positive patients. The study will enroll patients with diagnosed breast cancer with a BRCA1 mutation. Patients will be eligible if they have primary breast cancer (measured on mammogram and ultrasound or MRI) and confirmed histological diagnosis of invasive breast cancer by core biopsy. If axilla lymph nodes will be suspected then fine needle aspiration biopsy will be performed. Patients will be drawn from one of three oncology centers: Szczecin, Bielsko-Biała and Kraków.

Patients will obtain staging investigations and will be monitored. Once entry criteria is met and consent obtained, all patients will obtain baseline staging investigation within 3 weeks of trial registration. Routine investigations will include staging scans: mammography, ultrasound of the breast and axilla (assessment of breast tumor and axilla lymph nodes), assessment of chest/abdomen/pelvis (plain film, Computed Tomography [CT] and/or ultrasound as per local standards) and baseline blood work (Complete Blood Count [CBC], electrolytes, creatinine, Liver Function Tests [LFTs], calcium, albumin).

Once staging investigations are complete, all patients will be treated with cisplatin chemotherapy at a dose of 75mg/m2 every three weeks for a total of four cycles (4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy). Clinical response will be evaluated every three weeks by the treating physician while on chemotherapy (tumour of the breast and axilla lymph nodes). After four cycles of chemotherapy the patient will then undergo definitive surgery (mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery). Sentinel lymph nodes procedure will be performed. In case of positive lymph nodes standard lymph nodes surgery will be performed. Pathological complete response will defined as no evidence of residual tumor in the breast and the axilla. There may be evidence of ductal carcinoma in situ. The pathology will reviewed by two independent pathologists.

Following surgery patients will receive standard adjuvant chemotherapy at the discretion of the treating physician and if indicated, the patient will also receive radiotherapy and/or hormonal therapy and/or adjuvant trastuzumab at the description of the treating physician.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Neoadjuvant Cisplatin Chemotherapy in people with BRCA1 Mutation and Breast Cancer Invasive Nos, run by Pomeranian Medical University Szczecin at 1 site in Poland.

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 6 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 12 Jul 2012. 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 Poland. 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 Tomasz Byrski, MD, PhD (48-501-225-501, tomekbyr@wp.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathologic Complete Response (time frame: Four Months). 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 NCT01630226, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Jul 2012.
