Comparison of Fulvestrant (FASLODEX™) 250 mg and 500 mg in Postmenopausal Women With Oestrogen Receptor Positive Advanced Breast Cancer Progressing or Relapsing After Previous Endocrine Therapy.
- Registration Number
- NCT00099437

- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new dose of 500 mg Fulvestrant with the standard dose of 250 mg in postmenopausal women with oestrogen receptor positive advanced breast cancer who have failed on a previous endocrine treatment.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time to Progression (TTP) RECIST(Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors ) tumour assessments carried out every 12 weeks (+/- 2 weeks) from randomisation for study duration (48 months) Median time (in months) from randomisation until objective disease progression or death (in the absence of objective progression).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Duration of Response (DoR) RECIST tumour assessments carried out every 12 weeks (+/- 2 weeks) from randomisation for study duration (48 months) Time from randomisation until objective progression or death (in the absence of objective progression), measured only in those patients who achieve a confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR)
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) Clinical Benefit from the sequence of RECIST scan data for study duration (48 months) . RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours) scans were performed every 12 weeks (+/- 2 weeks) from randomisation for study duration (48 months) A Clinical Benefit (CB) responder is defined as a patient having a best overall response of CR, PR or SD (stable disease) \>=24 weeks. The Clinical Benefit Rate is the percentage of patients with CB.
Change From Randomisation in Trial Outcome Index (TOI) Over the Course of the Study TOI questionnaires were completed every 4 weeks from randomisation until week 24 and then again at treatment discontinuation, for study duration (48 months) Mean (and standard deviation) change from randomisation until treatment discontinuation in TOI (defined as the first visit response of 'worsened' which is a decrease in TOI from baseline of 5 points or more) using the Kaplan-Meier method. If a subject has not shown a reduction of 5 points or more at the time of analysis then the observation will be right censored using the last QOL assessment date. Trial Outcome Index (TOI) is derived from the FACT-B questionnaire (Cella et al, 1993) by adding together the scores from the following 3 subscales; Physical well-being (PWB), Functional well-being (FWB) and Breast cancer subscale (BCS). The TOI score range is 0-92 with the higher scores representing the more favourable outcomes. Data were collected from a subgroup of patients.
Overall Survival (OS) - Follow-up Median time (in months) from randomisation until death (from any cause),up to 80 months Overall Survival is equivalent to time to death. For this endpoint, all deaths occurring during the study as a whole until the data cut-off for the survival extension (31st October 2011) are presented (analysis at 75% deaths)
Overall Survival (OS) Overall Survival is equivalent to time to death. For this endpoint, all deaths occurring for study duration (48 months) Median time (in months) from randomisation until death (from any cause) (analysis at 50% deaths )
Objective Response Rate (ORR) RECIST tumour assessments carried out every 12 weeks (+/- 2 weeks) from randomisation for study duration (48 months) Using the RECIST scan data, an objective response (OR) is defined as a patient having a best overall response of either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) which is subsequently confirmed as per RECIST. ORR is defined as the percentage of patients with OR.
Duration of Clinical Benefit (DoCB) RECIST tumour assessments carried out every 12 weeks (+/- 2 weeks) from randomisation for study duration (48 months) Time from randomisation until objective progression or death (in the absence of objective progression), measured only in those patients who achieve a confirmed complete response (CR), confirmed partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) \>=24 weeks
