What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CabazitaxelDrug

    Also called Jevtana, XRP6258

Study groups in NCT01693549
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CabazitaxelExperimentalCabazitaxel(XRP6258) will be administered on day 1 of each cycle, every 21 days, at a dose of 25 mg/m² by i.v. route in 1 hour. Treatment can be continued until patient's consent withdrawal, intolerable toxicity or documented disease progression.
Receives: Drug: Cabazitaxel

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate (ORR).

    Measured: At an average of 24 months for each patient

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Duration of response.

    Measured: From the time measurement criteria are first met for partial or complete response until the first date of documented progressive disease or death from any cause without prior documentation of progression assessed up to 30 months.

  2. Evaluation of progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: From study entry until the first date of documented progressive disease (PD) or death from any cause without prior documentation of progression, assessed up to 30 months.

  3. Evaluation of overall survival (OS)

    Measured: Defined as the time in months from study entry until the time of death, assessed up to 30 months.

  4. Assessment of safety and tolerability.

    Distribution of adverse events according to severity grade.

    Measured: Evaluation of Adverse Events will be performed every 21 days (per cycle) during treatment assessed up to 30 months.

  5. Value of prognostic and/or predictive biomarkers measured in tissue and blood samples

    βΙ,βΙΙ,βΙΙΙ,βIVb, βV-tubulin isotypes,HIF1α,microtubule-associated proteins such as Tau,MAP2,MAP4 \& microtubule-sequestering proteins such as stathmin, will be assessed. Moreover, evaluation of p53,BCL2,BIM,γ-actin,LIMK2, TGFBI,Aurora-A,as well as the expression of the enzyme CYP3A and multidrug transporters such as P-glycoprotein. The abovementioned factors will be assessed by immunohistochemistry at the protein level and by quantitative real-time PCR at the RNA level.

    Also, given the clinical significance of the anti-angiogenic effects of cytotoxic chemotherapy,we will investigate the effect of treatment on surrogate biomarkers of angiogenesis, such as VEGF-A as well as the effect of chemotherapy on kinetics of soluble biomarkers,using ELISA.

    In addition,genetic polymorphisms in drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters, such as the CYP3A and ABCB1 genes, will be explored in blood DNA and their association with the toxicity and efficacy of cabazitaxel will be assessed.

    Measured: Tumor blocks and blood DNA will be collected at study entry and plasma at study entry, on week 3 and week 6 of treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cabazitaxel in people with Breast Cancer, run by Hellenic Cooperative Oncology Group at 17 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 17 inclusion and 12 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 1 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 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.

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?

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?

Objective response rate (ORR). (time frame: At an average of 24 months for each patient). 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 1 Aug 2017.
