- NCT01387373
- Lead Sponsor
- Dorte Nielsen
- Brief Summary
This is a phase II trial evaluating intra-hepatic chemotherapy with oxaliplatin every second week in combination with systemic capecitabine and in patients with a HER2-positive tumour in combination with trastuzumab (Herceptin®) in patient with non-resectable liver metastases from breast cancer.
Only patients without extrahepatic disease are included.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Response rate 6 months after inclusion of last patient Number of patients with complete or partial response in the liver (RECIST version 1.1)Only patients with measurable disease are included in the protocol. Response rate number of patients with CR + PR divided with total number
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time to progression a) Intrahepatic progression b) Extrahepatic progression 6 months after inclusion of last patient Time from treatment start to progression of disease or death of any cause.
Survival 6 months after inclusion of last patient All patients in intent-to-treat population , calculated from start of treatment to death of any cause
Number of patients suitable for local therapy (radiofrequency) 6 months after inclusion of last patient Total number of patients receiving RF treatment or surgical treatment
Toxicity 28 days after last patient last dose All patients who received at least one dose of study drug are evaluable for toxicity. CTC version 3.0 will be used.
