About this study

Official title: Olaparib Dose Escalation in Combination With High Dose Radiotherapy to the Breast Andregional Lymph Nodes in Patients With Breast Cancer

The majority of breast cancer patients receive radiotherapy as part of their treatment. Radiotherapy improves both locoregional control and overall survival. In most patients with breast cancer the locoregional recurrence rate (LRR) is low, however still high LRRs are found in certain patient groups, especially in locally advanced, inflammatory and triple negative breast cancer. Olaparib is a potent PARP inhibitor developed as an anti-cancer drug for homologous recombination (HR) defected tumors and as a dose intensifier for chemo- and radiotherapy. The combination of olaparib and radiotherapy is expected to improve locoregional control and thereby overall survival in both breast cancer patients with a high probability of locoregional recurrence and patients with HR deficient tumors. However, this combination treatment has never been tested in humans before. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of radiotherapy to the breast and regional lymph nodes with concurrent olaparib.

What participants receive

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

  • radiotherapyRadiation

    The whole breast and regional lymph nodes will receive 23 x 2.03 Gy per fraction (total 46.69 Gy) At the macroscopic tumor a added SIB will be given of 23 x 0.63Gy . Total dose: 61.18 Gy

  • olaparibDrug

    Also called AZD2281, KU-0059436

    The pre-defined dose levels of olaparib are 25mg QD, 25, 50, 100, 200, 300 and 400 mg BID

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of dose limiting toxicities.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Acute toxicity

    severity, duration and relation with treatment of all adverse events according to CTCAE version 4.03 occurring from start of treatment until 3 months after end of treatment

    Measured: 3 months after treatment

  2. Late toxicity

    severity, duration and relation with treatment of all adverse events that are possibly, probably or definitely related to the combination treatment according to CTCAE version 4.03

    Measured: 3 months until 2 years after end of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing radiotherapy and olaparib in people with Locally Advanced Malignant Neoplasm and Inflammatory Breast Carcinoma, run by The Netherlands Cancer Institute at 1 site 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 22 inclusion and 36 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 4 Aug 2021. 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 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.

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?

The incidence of dose limiting toxicities. (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT02227082, 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 4 Aug 2021.
