About this study

Official title: A Phase II Evaluating Cabazitaxel in Patients With Brain Metastasis Secondary to Breast and Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

A phase II trial evaluating Cabazitaxel in patients with brain metastasis secondary to breast and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

OBJECTIVES:

Read more

Primary:

The purpose of this study is to determine if cabazitaxel can induce a reduction in the size brain metastasis in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer and NSCLC with brain metastasis who were not previously treated with whole brain irradiation or require immediate brain irradiation.

Secondary:

  • To determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to initiating whole brain irradiation or radiosurgery
  • To determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to developing neurological symptoms
  • To determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to disease progression in the brain
  • To determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to disease progression outside the brain. This will be evaluated separately for the breast and NSCLC cohorts To determine the objective extra-cranial response (if applicable). This will be evaluated separately in the breast and NSCLC cohorts
  • To determine the safety of cabazitaxel
Read the detailed description

This is a single arm, prospective trial using a 2-stage Simon design, in which eligible patients will receive intravenous cabazitaxel for two cycles followed by response evaluation. Based on the pre-specified criteria of response (intra-cranial, patient will be allowed to continue on study drug.

What participants receive

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

  • CabazitaxelDrug

    Also called Jevtana

    Intravenous, 25 mg/m2 every 3 weeks

  • Contrast-enhanced whole brain MRIProcedure or surgery

    Evaluation of the volumetric reduction in the size of the brain lesion(s).

Study groups in NCT01913067
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CabazitaxelExperimentalEligible patients will receive intravenous 25mg/m2 cabazitaxel every 3 weeks. Contrast-enhanced whole brain MRI will be performed every two cycles. Patients who show ≥50% volumetric reduction in the size of the brain lesion(s) will continue on cabazitaxel until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who show evidence of disease progression and/or developed progressive neurological symptoms will be taken off study and offered whole brain irradiation. Patients who do not meet both criteria can have the choice either to continue on study drug or to be taken off study according to the investigator discretion.
Receives: Drug: Cabazitaxel; Procedure: Contrast-enhanced whole brain MRI

What is being measured

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

  1. Reduction of brain lesions.

    Objective response defined as a >= 50% volumetric reduction of brain lesions in the absence of increasing steroid use and progressive neurologic symptoms.

    Measured: week 6

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Time to whole brain irradiation or radiosurgery

    Determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to initiating whole brain irradiation or radiosurgery

    Measured: every 6 weeks until disease progression.

  2. Time to developing neurological symptoms.

    Determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to developing neurological symptoms

    Measured: every 6 weeks until disease progression.

  3. Time to progression in the brain

    Determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to disease progression in the brain.

    Measured: every 6 weeks until disease progression.

  4. Time to progression extra-cranial

    Determine the effect of cabazitaxel on the time to disease progression outside the brain

    Measured: every 6 weeks until disease progression.

  5. Toxicity

    Determine the safety of cabazitaxel

    Measured: every 3 weeks until 30 days after last treatment administration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cabazitaxel and Contrast-enhanced whole brain MRI in people with Brain Metastasis and Breast Cancer, run by Jules Bordet Institute at 1 site in Belgium.

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 19 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 2014. 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 Belgium. 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 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?

Reduction of brain lesions. (time frame: week 6). 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 24 Jul 2014.
