Breast Cancer, Metastatic Breast Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
Single-institution phase 2 trial investigating the efficacy of capecitabine, oxaliplatin and bevacizumab for patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumors.
Detailed description
This study will evaluate the time-to-progression (TTP) in patients with metastatic breast cancer, receiving 1st line therapy with bevacizumab in combination with paclitaxel and gemcitabine. Secondary objectives will include response rates and overall survival (OS).
Interventions
Paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 by IV infusion, days 1, 8, and 15 in 28-day cycles
Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 by IV infusion, days 1, 8, and 15 in 28-day cycles
Bevacizumab 10 mg/kg by IV infusion, days 1 and 15 in 28-day cycles

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Previously-untreated metastatic breast cancer. May have had prior chest wall irradiation or palliative radiation to bony sites for control of pain or fracture. These sites of disease, however, will not be considered as sites of measurable disease. * Use of bisphosphonates will be permitted. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. * Granulocyte count ≥ 1500/mm³ * Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm³ * Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 g/dL. * Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) / serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) if alkaline phosphatase is ≤ ULN or alkaline phosphatase may be up to 4 x ULN if transaminases are ≤ ULN. * Total bilirubin within institutional limits of normal. * Calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min using the formula: Ccr(mL/min) = \[(140-age in years) X (wt in kg) X 0.85 (females)\]/(72 x serum creatinine in mg/dL) * ≥ 18 years of age. * Prior anthracycline treatment in the adjuvant setting or prior chest wall radiation must have left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) within the institutional range of normal as assessed by pre-treatment multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiogram (ECHO). * All patients must give signed written informed consent. * May have received adjuvant therapy as long as therapy complete \> 12 months from study entry. * Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test taken ≤ 2 weeks prior to study enrollment, and must consent to the use of effective contraception during the study period and for 6months thereafter.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time-to-Progression (TTP) | 2 years | Time-to-Progression (TTP) was assessed as the time from start of treatment to progression, as observed on radiographic scans and assessed per the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 criteria for progressive disease (ie, a 5-mm absolute increase of the sum of the longest diameters of the target lesions in addition to a 20% increase in the sum of the target lesions) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Response Rates | 24 weeks | The best overall response was recorded for each participant from randomization until disease progression/recurrence, using any increase from the smallest measurements recorded since randomization as the indicator of Progressive Disease (PD). Overall response was determined on the basis of response at the target and non-target lesions, and the appearance of new lesions, as follows. Target Nontarget New Lesions Overall Response * Complete Complete None Overall Complete Response * Complete Incomplete response/ None Overall Partial Response Stable Disease (SD) * Partial Not PD None Overall Partial Response * SD Not PD None Overall Stable Disease * PD Any Yes/No Overall PD * Any PD Yes/No Overall PD * Any Any Yes Overall PD Overall Response Rate (ORR) was assessed as the sum of the Complete Response (CR) rate and the Partial Response (PR) rate. |
| Overall Survival (OS), Confirmed | 6 years | Overall Survival (OS) as determined by confirmed date of death. Participants without documentation as either alive or deceased as of 6 years from the start of treatment were considered lost-to-follow-up. |
