About this study

Official title: Prediction of Everolimus-induced Interstitial Lung Disease in Breast Cancer Patients; Maximizing Efficacy by Reducing Toxicity

The investigators will determine which factors are predictive for the development and severity of everolimus-induced interstitial lung disease and will develop a prediction model based on these risk factors.

Read the detailed description

In this study the investigators will prospectively investigate pulmonary adverse events during treatment with everolimus. The investigators will distinguish the following everolimus-induced pulmonary adverse events: pulmonary infection, everolimus-induced airway disease and everolimus-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD). The investigators will investigate the predictive value of pneumoproteins, everolimus exposure, pulmonary function tests, four distinct radiological patterns, baseline patient characteristics and the development of skin toxicity or oral mucositis for the development and severity of everolimus-induced ILD.

breast cancer patientsPostmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER) positive advanced breast cancer whose disease is refractory to non steroidal aromatase inhibitors, and are eligible for treatment with exemestane and everolimus.

What is being measured

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

  1. predictive factors of everolimus-induced ILD

    Find the correlation between:

    • pneumoproteins
    • everolimus exposure
    • pulmonary function tests
    • four distinct radiological patterns of 1.0mm CT slices of the lungs
    • baseline patient characteristics
    • the development and grade of everolimus-induced skin toxicity and oral mucositis and the development and grade of everolimus-induced ILD

    Measured: six months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. temporal relation pneumoproteins and ILD

    Analyze the temporal relationship between a decrease in pulmonary function or the occurrence of new radiological pulmonary abnormalities and an increase in the level of pneumoproteins

    Measured: six months

  2. pathophysiology of everolimus-induced ILD

    Investigate which immunological changes (cytokines, T-cells, dendritic cells) are observed in peripheral blood, skin biopsies and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with everolimus-induced toxicity

    Measured: six months

  3. relation ILD and exposure and outcome

    Define the correlation between everolimus-induced ILD on the one hand and everolimus exposure (as per AUC0-24h) on day 14) and outcome (time to progression, as determined by treating physician) on the other hand

    Measured: six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Neoplasms, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 2 sites in Netherlands.

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 8 inclusion and 6 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 12 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Netherlands. 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.

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?

predictive factors of everolimus-induced ILD (time frame: six months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01978171, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Apr 2018.
