About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Clinical Trial Evaluating the Safety and Clinical Activity of Radioiodide (131I-) as a Novel Targeted Therapy for Metastatic Breast Cancer That Overexpresses Functional Na/I Symporter

The purpose of this phase I/II study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of Radioiodide (131I-) as a novel targeted therapy for metastatic breast cancer that overexpresses functional Na/I symporter. The study will enroll patients with metastatic breast cancer who have had clinical and/or radiographic evidence of disease progression on prior hormonal and/or chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

The primary objectives of the study are as follows:

  1. To evaluate the feasibility of using 124I- PET/CT scans to identify patients whose metastatic lesions accumulate radioactive iodide and therefore are candidates for 131I- therapy.
  2. Determine the frequency of iodide (124I) enriching metastatic breast cancer.
  3. Evaluate the safety and clinical activity of one-time 131I treatment to patients who screen positive on 124I- PET/CT screening, positivity is defined as calculated iodide enrichment that will allow delivering 2000 cGy or more radiation to one or more metastatic lesion by administering up to 200mCi 131I-.

The secondary objectives of the study are as follows:

  1. To investigate a correlation between NIS expression in tumor tissue with 124I- uptake on screening PET/CT scan

The Phase I portion will follow a 3+3 design with 4 dose levels (30, 60, 120, and 200 mCi) of I- treatment. The maximum tolerated dose will be used in the Phase II efficacy assessment which will follow a Simon's optimal two-stage design. The primary efficacy measure is objective tumor response rate (CR or PR) with targeted activity level of > 20% response rate.

The study will be terminated for futility if no tumor response is seen in the first 12 patients. If futility criteria is not met, a total of 37 eligible patients will be enrolled in the Phase II portion. If 4 or more responses are seen after 37 patients were evaluated, then the investigators will conclude that the regimen warrants further study.

What participants receive

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

  • Radioiodide (131I-)Radiation

    The Phase I portion will follow a 3+3 design with 4 dose levels (30, 60, 120, and 200 mCi) of I- treatment. The maximum tolerated dose (from Phase I) will be used in the Phase II efficacy assessment which will follow a Simon's optimal two-stage design.

What is being measured

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

  1. objective tumor response rate

    The primary efficacy measure is objective tumor response rate (CR or PR) with targeted activity level of > 20% response rate.

    Patients should be followed regularly until disease progression and until resolution of all acute toxicities associated with treatment administration. If stable disease or resolution of toxicities takes longer than 24 weeks, follow up frequency will be determined by the treating physician.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Radioiodide (131I-) in people with Breast Cancer, run by Yale University at 1 site 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 16 inclusion and 4 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 22 Aug 2018. 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 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.

What does this combined 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.

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 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?

objective tumor response rate (time frame: Up to 24 weeks). 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 22 Aug 2018.
