Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine the overall Clinical Benefit (CB) of the two regimens (nab-paclitaxel plus trastuzumab (ARM A) versus nab-paclitaxel alone (ARM B)) among evaluable patients.;Secondary Objective: To determine the prognostic and predictive significance of HER2-positive CTC. To evaluate additional measures of tumor control to further characterize the efficacy of the nab-paclitaxel plus trastuzumab vs. nab-paclitaxel. ;Primary end point(s): The evaluation of the overall CB among evaluable patients.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 weeks after treatment initiation | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): •To evaluate the early response based on CTCs variations as a predictor of patients’ outcome; •To validate the prognostic significance of HER2+ve CTCs in patients with primary HER2-ve MBC; •To obtain RNA from EpCAM+ve CTC isolated from MBC patients using the Veridex® Profile kit for pharmacodynamic evaluation (HER2-neu, PI3K, PTEN, pAKT, mTOR). •To determine HER2 expression, proliferation index in fine needle aspirate (FNA) biopsies (optional). •To evaluate the prognostic and predictive role of circulating HER2 and EGFR. •To evaluate the Progression Free Survival. •To evaluate the Overall Survival. •To determine patient’s tolerability and safety of the treatment. •To evaluate the Quality of Life. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 months from the end of last treatment of LSI. | — |
