About this study

Official title: Maintenance Hormone Therapy With Fulvestrant After First-Line Chemotherapy for Postmenopausal Hormone-receptor-positive (HR) Positive Advanced Breast Cancer: A Multicenter, Prospective Phase II Study

This is a prospective, single arm phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fulvestrant as a maintenance hormone therapy after first-line chemotherapy for postmenopausal HR positive advanced breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single arm phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fulvestrant as a maintenance hormone therapy after first-line chemotherapy for postmenopausal HR positive advanced breast cancer.

Approximately 58 women who have stable disease or responded to first line chemotherapy with at least 4 and less than 8 weeks of treatment for metastatic breast cancer will be enrolled to this study and receive fulvestrant 500mg as a maintenance therapy. The treatment will continue until the objective disease progression or intolerable AE.

Efficacy will be determined based on tumor assessments performed by each investigator according to RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors ) 1.1. Safety will be monitored based on the frequency and severity of adverse events (AEs), as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) grade version 4.0.

Tumor assessments will be assessed by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) every 12 weeks for all patients until documented evidence of objective disease progression.

Reporting of SAEs (serious adverse events) to regulatory authorities will be done by the investigator in accordance with local regulations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing fulvestrant in people with Breast Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jul 2018. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Clinical Benefit Rate (time frame: 1 year). 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 10 Jul 2018.
