About this study
In this study, individuals with triple-negative breast cancer will receive either a platinum-based or non-platinum-based preoperative chemotherapy treatment. This study will help us identify which option is the most effective and safe.
Read the detailed description
Breast cancer is a significant health concern, and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a particularly aggressive and lethal subtype. Chemotherapy is currently the only recommended systemic treatment for TNBC, with the standard regimen being a combination of anthracyclines and taxanes. Platinum agents have shown promising results in TNBC neoadjuvant chemotherapy due to their ability to damage DNA and be more effective in tumors with dysfunctional DNA repair mechanisms. However, there is still a lack of consensus on the optimal neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen for TNBC. This study will be conducted to compare the responses and toxicities of platinum-based versus non-platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in TNBC patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the Department of Clinical Oncology of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Shahbagh, Dhaka. After pretreatment evaluation, a total of 82 patients who fulfill the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into Arm A and Arm B by simple random sampling. After the completion of the chemotherapy, all patients will undergo surgical management. A postoperative histopathology report will be collected and assessed by the investigator. During the treatment, the patients will be monitored before each cycle of chemotherapy, including physical examinations and laboratory investigations. All the relevant data will be compiled on a master chart first, and then statistical analysis of the results will be obtained by using Windows-based computer software facilities with Statistical Packages for Social Sciences. The data will be analyzed using the Chi-square test and the "T' test. The results will be presented in tables, figures, and diagrams. A significant value of 'p' will be decided at a level of 0.05 in two-tailed tests.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide and Paclitaxel in people with Triple Negative Breast Cancer, run by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh at 1 site in Bangladesh.
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 2 inclusion and 8 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 25 May 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 Bangladesh. 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 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 Mohammad J Shams, MBBS, MD (+8801911177774, jsnitol@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Pathological complete response rate (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT05872412, which also lists 10 linked publications.
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 25 May 2023.
