Study of Neoadjuvant Treatment of Locally Advanced Breast Cancer With CAP Regimen (CAPneo)

October 23, 2017 updated by: José Bines, Instituto Nacional de Cancer, Brazil

Phase II Study of Neoadjuvant Treatment of Locally Advanced Breast Cancer Patients With the CAP Regimen

This is a single arm, single center, non-randomized, phase II trial of stage IIB/III TNBC. Patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin (50 mg/m2) in combination with doxorubicin (50 mg/m2) and cyclophosphamide (500 mg/m2) every 21 days and for a total of 6 cycles. After surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of docetaxel (75 mg/m2) every 21 days was further provided for 4 cycles. Primary outcome was pathological complete response in the breast and axilla (pCR; ypT0ypN0). Secondary outcomes were safety, disease-free survival and overall survival.

Detailed Description

This is a non-randomized, open-label, single arm, single center, phase II clinical trial. Patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin (50 mg/m2, intravenous [IV], day 1) in combination with doxorubicin (50 mg/m2, IV, day 1) and cyclophosphamide (500 mg/m2, IV, day 1) every 21 days and for a total of 6 cycles (CAP regimen). Subsequent mastectomy plus axillary lymph node dissection was performed. Pathological specimen was analyzed to assess tumor response in the breast and axilla. Adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of docetaxel (75 mg/m2, IV) every 21 days was further provided for 4 cycles. In case of tumor progression during neoadjuvant treatment, CAP was discontinued and additional local or systemic treatment was provided at the discretion of the investigator. The protocol was approved by the institutional review board of National Cancer Institute - Brazil. All patients provided written informed consent. The Brazilian Group of Breast Cancer Studies (GBECAM) and National Cancer Institute -Brazil were the academic sponsors and National Cancer Institute- Brazil was the funding source of the trial.

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.

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pathological complete response (pCR)
Time Frame: 6 months
Pathological complete response (pCR) assessed by the local pathology lab, and defined as the absence of tumor (invasive and/or in situ) both in the breast and axilla (ypT0 ypN0)
6 months

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety assessed according to NCI CTCAE
Time Frame: 5 years follow-up
Safety was assessed according to NCI CTCAE (National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) version 3.0.
5 years follow-up
Disease-free survival (DFS)
Time Frame: 5 years follow-up
DFS was defined as time from surgery to disease recurrence or death from any cause
5 years follow-up
