About this study

The purpose of this study is to describe demographics and socioeconomics characteristics associated to the diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer in Brazil.

Read the detailed description

The primary aim of this study is to characterize patients and treatments of metastatic breast cancer in Brazil. Other specific aims are:

  • to describe the BC pathological characterization
  • to describe treatment (describe each treatment with dates start-end, cycles, dosing, sequence and line of treatment, reason for discontinuation)
  • to analyze patients outcome (time to progression, site of metastasis, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), skeletal related events (SRE))

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by Latin American Cooperative Oncology Group at 24 sites in Brazil.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites in Brazil. 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 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?

Description of sociodemographic and socioeconomics characteristics associated to diagnostic and treatment of metastatic breast cancer in Brazil (time frame: 8 months). 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 NCT02662868, which also lists 12 linked publications.

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 23 Feb 2017.
