Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Males and females at least 18 years of age
  2. Diagnosis of high-risk stage I, II or IIIa breast cancer suitable for adjuvant TAC chemotherapy as based on investigator judgment
  3. Candidates for TAC chemotherapy, and no prior treatment with anthracyclines

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Received chemotherapy within last 3 month prior to screening, or expected to receive any chemotherapy other than TAC and / or immunotherapy between screening and 30 days after last planned study drug administration
  2. Any clinically significant findings on history or examination that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude administration of TAC chemotherapy in the full dose, including abnormal liver function, inadequate cardiac function or clinically significant cardiac disease, neuropathy or other disease
  3. Prior bone marrow or peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplant
  4. Any active cancer or history of prior malignancy within the last 5 years except carcinoma in situ of the cervix, basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or any surgically cured malignancy diagnosed 5 years or more before diagnosis of breast cancer

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To determine the duration of grade 4 neutropenia after administration of Maxy-G34 in chemotherapy cycle 1.
Time Frame: over 1 cycle of TAC chemotherapy (approximately 3 weeks)
over 1 cycle of TAC chemotherapy (approximately 3 weeks)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To determine the duration of grade 4 neutropenia after administration of Maxy-G34 in chemotherapy cycles 2-6.
Time Frame: over cycles 2-6 of TAC chemotherapy (approximately from weeks 4-18)
over cycles 2-6 of TAC chemotherapy (approximately from weeks 4-18)
To determine the incidence of grade 4 neutropenia after administration of each of the 6 doses of Maxy-G34.
Time Frame: over all 6 cycles of TAC chemotherapy (approximately 18 weeks)
over all 6 cycles of TAC chemotherapy (approximately 18 weeks)
