Local Therapy for ER/PR-positive Oligometastatic Breast Cancer (LARA)

August 5, 2022 updated by: Instituto do Cancer do Estado de São Paulo

Local Therapy for Hormone Receptor-positive Oligometastatic Breast Cancer - a Phase II Randomized Trial

Randomized phase 2 trial to evaluate the efficacy of local therapy for oligometastasis from ER/PR-positive breast cancer. The study hypothesis is that local therapy in addition to systemic therapy improves progression-free survival in comparison with systemic therapy alone.

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

Patients with estrogen receptor/ progesterone receptor-positive oligometastatic breast cancer with disease controlled after at least six months of systemic therapy will be enrolled in the study. Patients will be randomized to receive local therapy for oligometastatic sites in addition to systemic therapy or systemic therapy alone. Local therapy strategies will include surgery, radiotherapy, and radiofrequency ablation.

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

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
2-year progression-free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: from baseline up to 2 years
PFS will be defined as the time from randomization until the date of progression or death. 2-year PFS rate will represent the probability of a patient being free of progression after 2 years of randomization and will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
from baseline up to 2 years

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
Overall-survival (OS)
Time Frame: from baseline up to 10 years
OS will be calculated from the date of randomization until the date of death from any cause.
from baseline up to 10 years
Local therapy complication rate
Time Frame: from baseline up to 10 years
Local therapy complications will be registered, including the occurrence of bleeding, local infections, pneumothorax, or other events attributed to local therapy by the medical team. Acute complications will be considered as those occurring until one month after procedure, while late complication will be those occurring later than one month.
from baseline up to 10 years
1. European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire - Core 30 (QLQ-C30)
Time Frame: from baseline up to 1 year
The EORTC QLQ-C30 provide points for questions related to global health status, functional scales, and symptom scales, providing scores ranging from 0-100. Higher scores represent higher health status, higher functioning, and higher symptom burden.
from baseline up to 1 year
2. European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire - Breast Cancer (QLQ-BR23)
Time Frame: from baseline up to 1 year
EORTC-QLQ-BR23 is composed of questions related to functional scales and symptom scales specific for breast cancer, providing scores ranging from 0-100. Higher scores for functional scales represent better functioning, while higher scores for symptom scales represent higher levels of symptoms.
from baseline up to 1 year
Chemotherapy-free survival
Time Frame: from baseline up to 10 years
Chemotherapy-free survival will be calculated from the date of randomization until the first date of application of a new chemotherapy line.
from baseline up to 10 years
Subgroup analysis - PFS according to type of metastatic disease (de novo versus recurrent) and metastatic sites
Time Frame: from baseline up to 10 years
PFS will be calculated for subgroups, according to type of metastatic disease (de novo versus recurrent) and sites of oligometastasis
from baseline up to 10 years
