The Maintenance Regimen and Revised Regimen for Advanced Breast Cancer Survivors After First-line Salvage Therapy

February 5, 2018 updated by: Zhiyong Yu

Prospective Randomized Controlled Study of the Maintenance Regimen and Revised Regimen for Advanced Breast Cancer Survivors After First-line Salvage Therapy

Worldwide, breast cancer is the most incident and prevalent cancer among women. Despite advances in the treatment of advanced breast cancer (ABC) during the past decade, adjuvant systemic therapy has yield little progression for such patients. ABC remains an incurable disease, responsible for approximate 40,000 deaths annually and a median life expectancy of no more than 3 years. The NCCN guidelines clearly define routine adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for the early breast cancer, however, for the patients with recurrence and metastasis, the choice of treatment options is not clear. In this trial, we choose the patients with disease progression who received anthracycline and taxane adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery. The patients received vinorelbine and gemcitabine (NG) or vinorelbine and platinum (NP) regiments for 6 cycles. Then the patients with complete response (CR), partly response (PR) and stable disease(SD) will be assigned to 3 groups, one group will receive the original regiment for 3 cycles to maintain treatment, one group will receive the vinorelbine for 6 cycles, the other group will receive the capecitabine for 6 cycles. Trasuzumab will be used to patients if HER-2 positive. Endocrine therapy will be used if the hormone receptors positive after the chemotherapy. The primary endpoint is to assess disease-free survival (DFS), the secondary endpoint is to assess the overall survival (OS).

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.

Detailed Description

The trial is designed to help us to choose the maintain treatment regiment for the patients with effective first-line salvage therapy. After inorelbine and gemcitabine (NG) or vinorelbine and platinum (NP) regiments for 6 cycles, patients will be assess the effect of treatment. As for the patients with complete response (CR), partly response (PR) and stable disease(SD), the investigators will randomly assign them to receive 3 cycles of original regiment, or 6 cycles of vinorelbine, or 6 cycles of capecitabine. Trasuzumab will be used to patients if HER-2 positive. Endocrine therapy will be used if the hormone receptors positive after the chemotherapy. The effectiveness of therapy will be estimated after the maintain therapy. The first two years the patient was prescribed every 3 months to review the disease, then review the disease every six months. The primary endpoint is to assess disease-free survival (DFS), the secondary endpoint is to assess the overall survival (OS).
