About this study

This is an open-label phase I/II study for patients with advanced (locally advanced inoperable or metastatic) triple-negative breast cancer progressing after first-line therapy receiving ixazomib on days 1, 8, and 15 in combination with carboplatin on days 1, 8, and 15. Cycles will be repeated every four weeks.

Read the detailed description

The phase I part of this study uses an alternate dose escalation accelerated titration design. In the accelerated dose-escalation phase a single-patient cohort per dose level will be enrolled, until one dose limiting toxicity (DLT) or 2 moderate toxicities are observed during cycle 1, or until dose level 4 is reached. At this dose level the cohort is expanded to three patients and dose escalation reverts to a conventional 3+3 escalation design.

DLTs are defined as inability to deliver the drug combination of ixazomib and carboplatin due to drug related toxicity.

The maximum-administered dose (MAD) is defined as the dose at which DLT occur in at least two of six patients treated at that dose level. The dose just below the MAD is considered the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), providing that DLT is observed in fewer than two of six treated patients (or fewer than one third if more than six patients will be treated) at that dose level. Determination of MAD and MTD is based on DLT observed during the first treatment cycle.

Phase II:

After establishing MTD in phase I, accrual continues to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination. A total of 41 patients will be included (patients enrolled in the phase I part within the conventional dose escalation phase at the dose level considered as the MTD may be included).

All subjects will continue on study drugs until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or treatment discontinuation for any other reason.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    Determination of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    Measured: From treatment start until MTD (12 months --> start Phase II Q3 2017)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Safety profile based on adverse events evaluation

    Incidence, type, severity and consequences (e.g. study discontinuation) of an adverse event

    Measured: During study treatment + 28 day after last study drug (approximately 3 years)

  2. Overall response rate

    Measured: During study treatment every 8 weeks until progression + end of study treatment (approximately 3 years)

  3. Clinical benefit rate

    Complete remission, partial remission or stable disease for at least 24 weeks

    Measured: During study treatment every 8 weeks until progression + end of study treatment (approximately 3 years)

  4. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: During study treatment every 8 weeks until progression + end of study treatment (approximately 3 years)

  5. Quality of Life of MBC patients

    EORTC quality of life questionnaire (QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BR23)

    Measured: Baseline + every 8 weeks until progression + at end of study treatment (approximately 3 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Ixazomib and Carboplatin in people with Triple-Negative Breast Cancer, run by Arbeitsgemeinschaft medikamentoese Tumortherapie at 12 sites in Austria.

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 12 inclusion and 15 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 30 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Austria. 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 stopped early (reason given: Due to slow recruitment, the study had to be terminated prematurely.). 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?

Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) (time frame: From treatment start until MTD (12 months --> start Phase II Q3 2017)). 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 NCT02993094, 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 30 Nov 2020.
