Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 20 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Asian ER positive/HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer

Who may be able to join

  • (1) Female patients who are ≥ 20 years old at the time of informed consent.
  • (2) Have histologically confirmed ER positive (defined as ≥1%) and/ or progesterone receptor (PR) positive (defined as ≥1%) breast cancer.
  • (3) Have histologically confirmed HER2-negative breast cancer as defined by immuno-histochemistry (IHC) ≤ 2+, and/or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) negative.
  • (4) Patients who fits either one of the following two criteria are eligible: I. Have radiological or objective evidence of inoperable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and are planned to be given HT single agent, HT plus other targeted therapy, HT plus everolimus (reimbursed by National Health Insurance), HT plus metronomic oral chemotherapy or oral chemotherapy only by the treating physician. II. Locally advanced but operable patients before the resection of the primary tumor.

Who cannot join

  • (1) Patients not suitable for oral anti-cancer treatment as determined by the investigator.
  • (2) Known hypersensitivity to mammilian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors, e.g. Sirolimus (rapamycin).
  • (3) Patients with a known history of HIV seropositivity. Screening for HIV infection at baseline is not required.
  • (4) Patients being treated with drugs recognized as being strong inhibitors or inducers of the isoenzyme CYP3A.

About this study

Official title: The Landscape of ESR1 Mutations in Asian Estrogen Receptor-positive Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients Detected by Liquid Biopsy and Impact on Hormonal Therapy-based Treatments

The investigator propose a prospective study using blood samples (liquid biopsy) of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients to understand the prevalence of estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) mutation variants and the correlation with hormonal therapy (HT)-based treatment resistance in Asian ER-positive/human epidermal growth receptor-2 (HER2)-negative MBC population.

Read the detailed description

The investigator will use next-generation targeted sequencing covering the entire ESR1 ligand-binding domain (LBD) region to understand 1. the spectrum and prevalence of specific ESR1 mutation variants in Asian women, and 2. the preliminary correlation of Asian-specific prevalent ESR1 LBD mutation variants such as Y537C with treatment efficacy. For the second purpose, the investigator will specifically focus on patients with ESR1 Y537C mutation, while the results from patients with wild type ESR1 and patients with D538G or Y537S mutant will be severed as control for preliminary comparison.

What participants receive

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

  • Hormonal therapy-based treatmentsDrug

    Also called HT single agent, HT plus other targeted therapy, HT plus everolimus, HT plus metronomic oral chemotherapy or oral chemotherapy only

    Hormonal therapy-based treatments, ex. HT single agent, HT plus other targeted therapy, HT plus everolimus, HT plus metronomic oral chemotherapy or oral chemotherapy only

What is being measured

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

  1. The percentage of ESR1 LBD mutation variant

    The percentage of each ESR1 LBD mutation variant in Asian ER-positive/HER2-negative MBC who had received at least one line of HT

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    PFS of patients who are treated with everolimus plus HT with either ESR1 wild type or different Asian-specific prevalent ESR1 LBD mutation variants such as Y537C

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 2 sites in Taiwan.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Taiwan. 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?

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?

The percentage of ESR1 LBD mutation variant (time frame: 12 months). 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 12 Jan 2021.
