About this study
Official title: A Pilot Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Biological Activity of HDAC (Histone Deacetylase Transferases) Inhibition on ER and PR Expression in Triple Negative Invasive Breast Cancer
This pilot clinical trial studies vorinostat before surgery in treating patients with triple-negative breast cancer. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving enzyme inhibitor therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate the ability of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition using suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) (vorinostat) to induce expression of the estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) genes in solid human triple negative invasive breast cancer.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive vorinostat 400 mg daily orally (PO) on days 1-21 followed by surgery within 14 days.
- Being tested
- vorinostat, therapeutic conventional surgery, laboratory biomarker analysis
- Medical subject headings
- Breast Neoplasms, Triple Negative Breast Neoplasms

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Combined PR/ER response
The proportion of patients who achieve sufficient deacetylation of ER and PR will be estimable with a standard error no greater than +/- 0.05. The proportion of patients who exhibit a sufficient change in ER or PR expression can be estimated with similar precision. In addition, paired t-tests and McNamaraâs test will be used to evaluate whether the effect of vorinostat on deacetylation status or gene expression differs between ER or PR, and linear regression analysis will be used to evaluate the association between deacetylation changes and corresponding expression changes in ER and PR genes.
Measured: 21 days
Secondary outcomes (1)
Grade 3 or 4 toxicities using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0
The toxicities observed will be summarized in terms of type (organ affected or laboratory determination such as absolute neutrophil count), severity (by NCI Common Toxicity Criteria v4.0 and nadir or maximum values for the laboratory measures), time of onset (i.e. week of treatment), duration, and reversibility or outcome.
Measured: Within 3 days prior to surgery

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing vorinostat, therapeutic conventional surgery and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Stage II Breast Cancer and Stage IIIA Breast Cancer, run by University of Southern California.
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 16 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
Are results available for this study?
The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
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?
Combined PR/ER response (time frame: 21 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 28 Jan 2014.
