  • Patients currently participating or has participated in a study with an investigational compound or device within 30 days of Day 1 of the study
  • Patient has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases or carcinomatous meningitis. Patients who have completed a course of therapy would be eligible for study if they are stable for 2 months prior to entry with no evidence of new or enlarging CNS metastasis and are off chronic steroids.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to eribulin mesylate or carboplatin
  • Patients on Class Ia and III antiarrhythmics. The principal investigator (PI) and/or treating physician will evaluate the medications to make sure none would significantly interfere with corrected QT interval (QTc).
  • Patient has known history of Hepatitis B or C or active Hepatitis A or HIV
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. This includes symptomatic pleural effusions or ascites.
  • Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with eribulin and carboplatin, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with eribulin and carboplatin.
  • Peripheral neuropathy of severity greater than 1 as a baseline

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Dose Escalation Study of Eribulin in Combination With Weekly Carboplatin for the Treatment of Metastatic Breast Cancer

This study is being done to see how safe the combination of eribulin and carboplatin is and if it will work to help people with advanced breast cancer. Eribulin and carboplatin are both chemotherapy drugs. They work by killing cancer cells. A person is made up of cells which control every function in the body. Some cells stop working like they should and become cancer cells. These cancer cells grow and multiply rapidly and can cause destruction to normal body organs. Eribulin and carboplatin have both been approved by United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the treatment of breast cancer. The combination of these two drugs and the safest dose of eribulin to use is experimental.

What participants receive

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

  • EribulinDrug

    Also called Halaven, eribulin mesylate

    Eribulin will be administered on days 1 and 8 slow IV push over 2 to 5 minutes. Premedications will be given per institutional guidelines.

    Level 1: 0.9 mg/m^2; Level 2: 1.1 mg/m^2; Level 3: 1.4 mg/m^2

  • CarboplatinDrug

    Also called CBDCA, Paraplatin

    Carboplatin will be administered intravenously on day 1 and day 8 of each cycle, immediately following eribulin infusion at a dose of area-under-the-curve (AUC) 2 over 30 minutes in 250 ML of 0.9 % normal saline. Carboplatin dose will be calculated using the Calvert formula using AUC of 2 as follows: Carboplatin dose (mg) = 2 X (GFR + 25).

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

    The primary objective of the trial is to determine the safety and tolerability of eribulin mesylate and carboplatin in combination. The primary safety endpoint is dose limiting toxicity (DLT). The MTD is defined as the dose at which the percentage of patients experiencing a DLT is the closest to 30%. Planned doses for evaluation of eribulin mesylate include 0.9, 1.1, and 1.4 mg/m^2.

    Measured: 30 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Response Rate (RR)

    Response rate will be provided for the subjects in the study overall. Response rates and 95% confidence intervals will be provided. Eribulin mesylate pharmacokinetic variables: peak concentration (CPeak) and trough plasma concentrations (Ctrough) will be calculated as appropriate and summary statistics will be provided.

    Measured: 30 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Eribulin and Carboplatin in people with Breast Cancer, run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 15 inclusion and 9 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 31 Oct 2022. 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 United States. 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 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.

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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) (time frame: 30 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 31 Oct 2022.
