About this study

This is an open-label, single-arm, multicenter, Phase IIIb study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Herceptin SC in combination with Perjeta IV plus docetaxel in female patients with HER2-positive metastatic or locally recurrent breast cancer. Enrolled patients are to receive study medication until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, death, or predefined study end, whichever occurs first. The anticipated time on study treatment is approximately 24 months. The target sample size is 400.

Conditions

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Docetaxel, pertuzumab [Perjeta] and trastuzumab [Herceptin] in people with Breast Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 112 sites in 12 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 16 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 6 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 112 sites in Italy, France, Germany, Poland, United Kingdom and 7 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Incidence of adverse events (AEs) (time frame: Up to 24 months after the last patient has been enrolled, approximately 3.5 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02402712, 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 6 Sep 2019.
