Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Metastatic Breast Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00696072
Lead Sponsor

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Clinical Benefit (CBR) and Number of Participants With CBR Having a Disease Free Interval (DFI) Greater Than 2 Years - Evaluable PopulationFirst dose of study drug to last dose plus 7 days, up to study completion (approximately 6 years)

CBR=participants with complete response (CR) + participants with partial response (PR) + participants with stable disease (SD) for a length of time greater than, equal to 6 months. CR= Disappearance of all target lesions. No new lesions. PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. SD= Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD) taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started. Physical examination,radiological assessment, and bone scans (if applicable) were used to assess outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Best Overall Response After Change From Letrozole to Letrozole Plus DasatinibFirst dose of study drug to last dose plus 7 days, up to study completion (approximately 6 years)

Participants in single-agent letrozole treatment arm who developed progressive disease, could continue letrozole, and add dasatinib to their treatment regimen. CBR=participants with CR + participants with partial response (PR) + participants with SD for a length of time ≥6 months divided by the total number of participants (%). CR= Disappearance of all target lesions. No new lesions. PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. SD= Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD) taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started. PD=At least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

Percentage of Participants With PFS At 6 Months and At 12 Months - ITT PopulationAt 6 months and at 12 months

Progression=At least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. ITT population: from time of first enrollment to first PD for all ITT participants.

Median Time to Treatment Failure (TTF) - ITT PopulationFirst dose of study drug to last dose plus 7 days, up to study completion (approximately 6 years)

Time to TTF was measured in months. The number of participants with events (PD or off treatment due to any reason) was evaluated. The first PD was defined as the event for cross over participants in the single- agent letrozole treatment arm to add dasatinib to their regimen.

Median Progression Free Survival (PFS) - Intent to Treat (ITT) PopulationDay 1 to Study Completion (approximately 6 years)

PFS was measured in months. Progression=At least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Study initiated 2008 and completed 2014.

Number of Participants With Complete Response, Partial Response, Stable Disease, and Disease ProgressionFirst dose of study drug to last dose plus 7 days, up to study completion (approximately 6 years)

CR= Disappearance of all target lesions. No new lesions. PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. SD= Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD) taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started. Progression (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Discontinuation, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and DeathsFirst dose of study drug to last dose plus 30 days, up to study completion (approximately 6 years)

AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization.
