About this study

Breast cancer is the commonest malignancy among females and one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Many drugs have been developed over the years to try to extend survival among these patients including cyclin dependant kinase inhibitors. Cyclin dependant kinase inhibitors (CDK inhibitors) mainly Palbociclib (PAL), ribociclib (RIB) and abemaciclib (ABM) are approved for treatment of hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative advanced breast cancer in the 1st line and subsequent lines in combination with aromatase inhibitors or fulvestrant. Studies showed that they extend progression free survival and recently they showed overall survival benefit. In this study investigators compare Palbociclib+ fulvestrant VS Ribociclib + fulvestrant as a second line treatment in metastatic ER+ve her2 -ve BC in oncology center mansoura university egyptian patients.

Breast cancer is the commonest malignancy among females and one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Many drugs have been developed over the years to try to extend survival among these patients including cyclin dependant kinase inhibitors. Cyclin dependant kinase inhibitors (CDK inhibitors) mainly Palbociclib (PAL), ribociclib (RIB) and abemaciclib (ABM) are approved for treatment of hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative advanced breast cancer in the 1st line and subsequent lines in combination with aromatase inhibitors or fulvestrant.

In this study investigators compare Palbociclib+ fulvestrant VS Ribociclib + fulvestrant as a second line treatment in metastatic ER+ve her2 -ve BC in oncology center mansoura university egyptian patients. The efficacy and comparative toxicity of CDK inhibitors were indirectly compared in a number of trials. Despite differences in inclusion criteria and follow-up length, second-line trials showed similar characteristics.

Unfortunately, despite the similar efficacy and overall response rate (ORR) and a slightly different but near-identical spectrum of adverse events, both agents have not been directly compared with each other. This study aims to fill that gap, and evaluate the toxicity, tolerability and response rate of ribociclib plus fulvestrant versus palbociclib plus fulvestrant, to inform the decision makers.

What is being measured

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

  1. The rate of objective response and clinical benefit

    compare objective response rate and clinical benefit rate between the 2 arms

    Measured: the last patient recruited in the study will be followed up for at least 6 months

  2. Incidence and grade of toxicity

    compare the incidence and grade of toxicity between the 2 arms

    Measured: the last patient recruited in the study will be followed up for at least 6 months

  3. Compare Quality of life score of the patients using EORTC core quality of life questionaire version C-30

    compare the level of deterioration of the quality of life score between the 2 arms

    Measured: each patient will answer the QOL score at D0, 3rd and 6 months of treatment as long as he is hasn't progressed on treatment during the 1st 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing comparing both arms as regard the objective response rate, toxicity profile, quality of life, progression free survival in people with Breast Cancer Stage IV, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 7 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 4 Jan 2023. 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 Egypt. 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 phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 manar hamed, MD (+201063678209, manarhamed@mans.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The rate of objective response and clinical benefit (time frame: the last patient recruited in the study will be followed up for at least 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Jan 2023.
