June 15, 2009 updated by: Korean Breast Cancer Study Group

A Clinical Trial of Paclitaxel Loaded Polymeric Micelle (Genexol-PM®) in Patients With Taxane-Pretreated Recurrent Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the response rate in patients with taxane-pretreated recurrent breast cancer receiving paclitaxel loaded polymeric micelle (Genexol-PM).

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Detailed Description

Genexol-PM is a novel Cremophor EL-free polymeric micelle formulation of paclitaxel. This single arm, multicenter phase IV study was designed to evaluate the response rate, toxicity, progression free survival and tumor control rate of Genexol-PM in patients with Taxane-pretreated recurrence breast cancer.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Genexol-PM

All the patients are recurrent breast cancer after taxane treatment. Patients with a measurable lesion (at least 1 measurable lesion)

  1. Spiral CT : lesion ≥ 10mm (unidimension)
  2. X-ray, MRI, ultrasound : lesion ≥ 20 mm (unidimension)
Genexol-PM at a dose of 300mg/m2 was diluted in 500 ml of 5% dextrose solution or normal saline and infused i.v. for 3 h on day 1.Treatment was repeated every 3 weeks until either disease progression or intolerance. A minimum of 6 cycles was recommended.
