About this study

Official title: Combined Use of Apatinib Mesylate and Vinorelbine Versus Single Use of Vinorelbine in Recurrent or Metastatic Triple-negative Breast Cancer: a Double-blinded Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

To compare the therapeutic effect of vinorelbine used alone or combined with apatinib mesylate for recurrent or metastatic TNBC patients who have at least received one chemotherapy regimen, including anthracyclines and taxanes, providing clinical evidence for multi-line treatment options for advanced TNBC.

Read the detailed description

The emergence of new molecular targeted drugs provides new prospects for the treatment of advanced breast cancer; and its future therapeutic trend includes chemotherapy combined with molecular targeted therapy. Apatinib mesylate (Aitan), a novel small molecule anti-angiogenic agent, highly selectively inhibits the activity of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase. Aitan also blocks the signaling of vascular endothelial growth factor binding to its receptor, thereby strongly inhibiting tumor angiogenesis and exerting anti-tumor effect.However, a randomized controlled clinical trial of apatinib combined with vinorelbine for TNBC has not been reported. The objective of this study is to compare the therapeutic effect of vinorelbine alone or combined with apatinib mesylate for recurrent or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients who have received at least two regimens containing anthracyclines and taxanes.

Being tested
Vinorelbine + placebo, Vinorelbine + Apatinib

What participants receive

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

  • Vinorelbine + placeboDrug

    Also called AiTan+ placebo

    Combined administration of vinorelbine and placebo. Based on oral administration of vinorelbine, the patients will be given oral placebo (starch as an ingredient). The placebo appearance, including shape, size, color and weight, taste, labeling and packing are the same with those of apatinib mesylate tablets.

  • Vinorelbine + ApatinibDrug

    Also called Navelbine+AiTan

    Combined administration of vinorelbine and apatinib. Vinorelbine tartrate soft capsule (also named Navelbine; registration No. H20140657; Pierre Fabre Medicament, Boulogne, France) 40 mg once orally, taken in the morning (at least 1 hour before or at least 1 hour after meals), three times a week (Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays), for a continuous 21-day cycle. Apatinib mesylate tablets (also named Aitan, State Medical Permission No. H20140103; Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., China), 500 mg orally, taken once a day for a continuous 21-day cycle.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progress-Free Survival(PFS)

    PFS refers to the length of time from random enrollment to any recorded tumor progression or death from any cause.

    Measured: Day 1 of treatment until disease progression or death from any cause, assessed up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    OS indicates the length of time from enrollment to death from any cause.When no information on death is collected in the clinical database, the last date when the patient is still known to have survived is used as the cut-off point.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  2. Disease control rate (DCR)

    DCR indicates the percentage of patients with CR, partial remission, and disease stabilization; and maintenance over 4 weeks, accounts for all the subjects with evaluable efficacy.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  3. Overall remission rate (ORR)

    ORR is the proportion of patients who achieve a complete or partial response ((CR+PR)/total number of cases x 100%), as assessed by the RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  4. Adverse events at levels 3 and 4

    Patients with adverse events at levels 3 and 4 will be assessed according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) Version 4.0.

    Measured: every 6 weeks (two cycles) and 4 weeks after treatment discontinuation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vinorelbine + Apatinib in people with Triple-negative Breast Cancer, run by Liaoning Cancer Hospital & Institute.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tao Sun, M.D. (86-024-31986682, jianong@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progress-Free Survival(PFS) (time frame: Day 1 of treatment until disease progression or death from any cause, assessed up to 24 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 NCT03932526, 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 Apr 2019.
