What participants receive

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

  • nab-paclitaxelDrug

    Also called Abraxane

    nab-paclitaxel 260mg/m2 q3w

  • TrastuzumabDrug

    Also called Herceptin

    trastuzumab 6 mg/kg (8 mg/kg as the loading dose)

Study groups in NCT02598310
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
nab-paclitaxel plus trastuzumabExperimentalFour cycles of nab-PTX 260 mg/m2 with trastuzumab 6 mg/kg (8 mg/kg as the loading dose). One year of adjuvant trastuzumab will be administrated. Anthracycline regimens may be administered by physician's choice for the case expected to have a high risk of recurrence based on the pathological findings of surgical specimen. Adjuvant endocrine therapy may be administrated for the case with weakly hormone-sensitive (1-9% of positive cells) tumor.
Receives: Drug: nab-paclitaxel; Drug: Trastuzumab

What is being measured

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

  1. Pathological complete response rate

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks after the protocol therapy

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Disease free survival

    Measured: Five years after the last patient enrolled

  2. Objective response rate

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks after the protocol therapy

  3. Pathological response rate

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks after the protocol therapy

  4. Breast-conserving surgery rate

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks after the protocol therapy

  5. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks after the protocol therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing nab-paclitaxel and Trastuzumab in people with Breast Cancer and Estrogen Receptor Negative Neoplasm, run by Osaka Medical College at 1 site in Japan.

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 10 inclusion and 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2019. 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 Japan. 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?

The study was stopped early. 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?

Pathological complete response rate (time frame: Up to 12 weeks after the protocol therapy). 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 NCT02598310, 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 28 Aug 2019.
