A Combination of Abraxane and Cisplatin in Metastatic Breast Cancer

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Metastatic Breast Cancer
• Interventions: Drug: Abraxane and Cisplatin combination

• Registration Number: NCT01149798
• Lead Sponsor: Fudan University

Brief Summary

This phase II trial on the assumption that abraxane and cisplatin combination therapy is efficacy in metastatic breast cancer.

Detailed Description

The rationales for the combination of Abraxane and cisplatin include that either drug has antitumor activity; they have different mechanisms; no cross-resistance are documented between them, and there have been some preclinical evidences indicating synergistic effects between the two agents. This phase II study will be undertaken to evaluate combination of cisplatin and weekly abraxane in terms of efficacy and safety in MBC patients.

     • ANC≥2000/mm3
     • HB≥80g/L
     • Total bilirubin < upper limit of normal level（UNL, < 1.5 x UNL for patients with liver metastasis)
     • ALT/AST < 1.5 x UNL (< 2.5 x UNL for patients with liver metastasis)
     • AKP < 5 x UNL (except for patients with bone metastasis)
     • Serum creatinine < UNL

  7. ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2.

  8. A life expectancy of more than 3 months.

9. Participation in any investigational drug study within 4 weeks preceding treatment start.
10. Blood transfusions or growth factors to aid hematological recovery within 2 weeks prior to study treatment start.
11. Significant medical condition that would make treatment or follow-up on this protocol difficult or problematic in the opinion of the treating oncologist.
12. Concurrent other malignancy at other sites or previous other cancer within the last 5 years, with the exception of adequately treated in situ carcinoma of cervix uteri or basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or a contralateral breast cancer.
