About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of Lapatinib (Tykerb) Plus Liposomal Doxorubicin Hydrochloride ( Lipo-Dox) for Patients With ErbB2 Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer

Objectives:

Phase I part

  • Primary Objective: To determine the recommended dose of the combination of lapatinib with Lipo-Dox as first line chemotherapy in patients with ErbB2 positive metastatic breast cancer.
  • Secondary Objectives:To define the safety profile; To observe the response rate and progression free survival

Phase II part

  • Primary Objective :To determined the objective response rate of the combination of lapatinib with Lipo-Dox as first line chemotherapy in patients with ErbB2 positive metastatic breast cancer.
  • Secondary Objectives:To define the safety profile; To determined the progression free survival
Read the detailed description

In phase I part Lapatinib (L) - dose level I, II 1000mg po daily dose level III, IV 1250mg po daily Intravenous Lipo Dox at the dose level reached on days 1 of a 21 days cycle• The recommended duration of combination treatment for each patient is at least 8 cycles, then, with continue combination treatment cycles or single lapatinib treatment (start with 1500 mg per day) at investigator's discretion. The treatment will stop if progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity or patient's refusal occurred. Intra patient escalation of dose level is allowed if no major toxicity noted.

In phase II part Patients will receive recommended dose according to phase I study result. The recommended duration of combination treatment for each patient is at least 8 cycles, then, with continue combination treatment cycles or single lapatinib treatment (start with 1500 mg per day) at investigator's discretion. The treatment will stop if progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity or patient's refusal occurred. Intra patient escalation of dose level is allowed if no major toxicity noted.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Lapatinib and Lipo-Dox in people with Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by China Medical University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 28 inclusion and 7 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 27 Feb 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 Taiwan. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Phase I part recommended dose of the combination of lapatinib with Lipo-Dox (time frame: Phase I: 6 months). 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 27 Feb 2013.
