Intra-hepatic Chemotherapy in Patient With Non-resectable Liver Metastases From Breast Cancer

Intra-hepatic Chemotherapy With Oxaliplatin Every Second Week in Combination With Systemic Capecitabine in Patient With Non-resectable Liver Metastases From Breast Cancer. A Phase II Trial

This is a phase II trial evaluating intra-hepatic chemotherapy with oxaliplatin every second week in combination with systemic capecitabine and in patients with a HER2-positive tumour in combination with trastuzumab (Herceptin®) in patient with non-resectable liver metastases from breast cancer.

Only patients without extrahepatic disease are included.

• Other current or prior malignant disease except adequately treated and cured carcinoma in situ of the cervix or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.
• Previous treatment with oxaliplatin
• Cytotoxic or experimental treatment within a 14 days period before start of trial medication
• The patient is not allowed to participate in other clinical trials.
• Any clinical symptoms suggesting peripheral neuropathy < or equal to grade 2 or CNS metastases (In case of clinical suspicion on CNS metastases a MR or CT scan should be performed within 4 weeks before inclusion

• Prior serious or unsuspected reaction after treatment with fluoropyrimidine
• Known prior hypersensitivity reactions to the agents.

If the patient is HER2-positive:

• Dyspnoea in due to complication related to malignant disease e.g.lung metastases with lymphangitis or other conditions with need of supportive oxygen.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Response rate	Number of patients with complete or partial response in the liver (RECIST version 1.1)Only patients with measurable disease are included in the protocol. Response rate number of patients with CR + PR divided with total number	6 months after inclusion of last patient

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Time to progression a) Intrahepatic progression b) Extrahepatic progression	Time from treatment start to progression of disease or death of any cause.	6 months after inclusion of last patient
Number of patients suitable for local therapy (radiofrequency)	Total number of patients receiving RF treatment or surgical treatment	6 months after inclusion of last patient
Survival	All patients in intent-to-treat population , calculated from start of treatment to death of any cause	6 months after inclusion of last patient
Toxicity	All patients who received at least one dose of study drug are evaluable for toxicity. CTC version 3.0 will be used.	28 days after last patient last dose
