About this study

Official title: Registry to Demonstrate the Clinical Utility of CELLSEARCH® Circulating Tumor Cell (CTC) Test in Medicare-Eligible Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients

The objective of the registry study is to demonstrate the clinical utility of the CELLSEARCH® CTC Test among the Medicare-Eligible metastatic Breast Cancer (mBC) patients in the United States. The objective of the present registry is to demonstrate the impact on patient management of the CELLSEARCH® CTC Test among the Medicare-eligible mBC patients. Hereto the hypothesis that the availability of CTC information provides clinicians important, timely information and impacts treatment decisions, will be tested.

This study is IDE-exempt since CELLSEARCH® CTC Test is a legally marketed device in the US, and is being used in accordance with its labeling.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT02111031
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CasePatients with documented (histologically/pathologically confirmed) mBC diagnosis, at lease 65 years of age at documented mBC diagnosis, and actively treated by a physician at a participating cancer center who routinely (i.e., test at lease every quarter) use CTC testing (excluding patients who sought consults or second opinions).

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of treatment decisions that are indicated to be changed by the availability CTC results, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results)

    Percentage of treatment decisions that are indicated to be changed by the availability CTC results, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results).

    Measured: 15 months

  2. The percentage of treatment decisions for which CTC results are indicated to add value to treatment decision making, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results)

    The percentage of treatment decisions for which CTC results are indicated to add value to treatment decision making, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results)

    Measured: 15 Months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The relative value of CTC testing in treatment decisions as compared to other parameters, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results)

    The relative value of CTC testing in treatment decisions as compared to other parameters, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results)

    Measured: 15 months

  2. Overall survival, calculated as the median (+/- standard deviation [SD]) length of time from initial diagnosis to death.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer, run by Janssen Diagnostics, LLC at 2 sites 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 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jun 2015. 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 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.

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?

Percentage of treatment decisions that are indicated to be changed by the availability CTC results, stratified by relevant criteria (e.g. patient and tumor characteristics, concordance and discordance with other test results) (time frame: 15 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Jun 2015.
