Phase 2
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Carcinoma Breast Stage IV
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02755272
Lead Sponsor
Fox Chase Cancer Center
Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to see if Pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy (carboplatin and gemcitabine) is safe and effective in treating patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Objective Response RateUp to 24 months

Evaluate antitumor activity by assessing the percentage of patients with evidence of complete response or partial response per RECIST 1.1 criteria.

Incidence of Treatment-Related Adverse EventsFrom the first dose of study treatment until 30 days after discontinuation of study treatment.

The safety and tolerability of Pembrolizumab in Combination with Carboplatin and Gemcitabine will be evaluated from the results of reported signs and symptoms, scheduled physical examinations, vital sign measurements, and clinical laboratory test results.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression Free SurvivalFrom the start of treatment until progressive disease or date of death, whichever occurs first (assessed up to 60 months.)

Evaluate antitumor activity by assessing the time interval from initiation of study drug until progressive disease or death whichever occurs first.

Overall SurvivalFrom the start of treatment until death (assessed up to 60 months.)

Evaluation of the overall survival rate of patients

Clinical Benefit RateUp to 24 months

Evaluate antitumor activity by assessing the percentage of patients with evidence of complete response, partial response, or stable disease per RECIST 1.1 criteria
