Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the toxicity and anti-tumor activity of nab-paclitaxel 100mg/m\^2 administered weekly in a 4-week cycle as first line therapy to patients with metastatic breast cancer who received taxanes as part of their adjuvant therapy and patients who did not receive taxanes as part of their adjuvant therapy.
Detailed description
This is an open-label, phase II study to determine the toxicity and antitumor activity of ABI-007 100 mg/m2 administered weekly for 3 weeks followed by a rest week (4-week cycle) as first line therapy to patients with metastatic breast cancer in the following 2 cohorts: Patients who have received a taxane as part of their adjuvant therapy, and patients who did not receive a taxane as part of their adjuvant therapy. Patients will be assessed for antitumor response every 8 weeks. The last subject received study treatment 11DEC2012. The study was terminated on 31 May 2013 via a notification letter to all investigators on 14 May 2013.

| Percentage of Participants With Objective Confirmed Complete or Partial Overall Response According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.0 Based on Investigator and Independent Reviewers | Every 8 weeks from study start until disease progression; Up to 61 months | Overall response rate (ORR) is complete response (CR) + partial response (PR). Complete response (CR): The disappearance of all known disease and no new sites or disease related symptoms confirmed at least 4 weeks after initial documentation. All sites must be assessed, including non-measurable sites, such as effusions, or markers. Disappearance of all non-target lesions. The normalization of tumor marker level confirmed at least 4 weeks after initial documentation. Partial response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as a reference the baseline sum of the longest diameters confirmed at least 4 weeks after initial documentation. PR is also recorded when all measurable disease has completely disappeared, but a non-measurable component (i.e., ascites) is still present but not progressing. As well as persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) and/or the maintenance of tumor marker level above the normal limits |
